Portuguese Nani claims to be one of the top players in the world

Luís Carlos Almeida da Cunha, also known as Nani, has become one of the most important players in the current Manchester United squad. His last goal against Tottenham Hotspurs, even though very rare, was vital to get the victory.

He claims that hard training and discipline is helping him improve his performance each game. "As a professional footballer, I'm close to being as complete as I can be, because y work hard to be one of the top players in the world. And I think I reached that level. I play for the best club in the world and my role here is as a decisive player, scoring goals or setting up and so the team can win" Nani said.

The portugues player also talks about self confidence: "You have to believe in yourself and believe in your abilities on the pitch. Big games are for big players".

But it seems like most fans just don't agree with him. In fact, many forums over the Internet are showing the opinion of Manchester United supporters, who say that the striker is a "joke" and "deluded".

Ferguson: Nani is only 23 and he is not for sale

Portugues forward Nani is having a hard time to become a usual starter at Manchester United squad but despite that and some trading rumours, Ferguson said that he is not for sale.

"I know that some big teams are interested, but there has not been any official offer, and we are not looking forward to sell him anyway. He is only 23. If someone came in for Nani in January we would tell him that he is going absolutely nowhere. Nani is a young boy and he wants to play - and he might get a chance against Spurs in the Carling Cup this week.

Alex Ferguson understands the pressure of having excellent strikers competing for the position: "He has suffered because Antonio Valencia's performances have been excellent and because Obertan has emerged as an interesting forward. He has enough talent and all he has to do is work harder and take his chance when it comes along."
