Manchester United winger Nani has moved to clarify comments made about manager Sir Alex Ferguson, insisting he has no issue with the Scot. The Portugal international was quoted in The Sun describing Ferguson as 'a very complicated man' who 'can go from complimenting you to just plain trashing you in a matter of minutes'.
However, speaking to the Daily Mail, Nani sought to play down the row, stating: 'I often speak with the coach about my performance. I accept Ferguson's decision but I want to have more minutes on the field.' He added that he has 'no problem with the coach'.
The 24-year-old, who has scored 12 goals in 85 United appearances, admitted he expected a larger role following Cristiano Ronaldo's departure. 'After Cristiano Ronaldo left, I wanted a bigger role, but the coach picks the team,' Nani said. He referenced the recent match against Chelsea, where he was an unused substitute, saying: 'Against Chelsea I wanted a chance but it didn't come. You need to accept bad moments.'
