Anderson insists he will stay and fight for Man Utd place
Anderson insists he's happy to stay and fight for his place at Manchester United.
The Brazil midfielder has been in-and-out of the United first team for the past month.
He told manutdsoccerschools.com: "No footballer is happy when they are out of the team. If you’re not bothered being on the bench or in the stands you will never be successful, certainly not at a club like United. You have to be unhappy if you’re not in the team. But even when I am not included I always support my team-mates. I’d love to start every match, but when this doesn’t happen I support my colleagues because we’re a team and we stick together.
"I see it as a great challenge. It’s good to have competition around you because that’s the way to get the best out of players. If everyone is competing for places, the performance levels will always be higher."

Fightman 's comment only proves how moronic and retarded man u fans are, especially the glory hunting kind...which is like 90% of their fan base....hahahahahaha
What a silly comment u've posted, man. I doubt if u re a man utd fan cos any member of one united will never make such a disgusting comment. U must surely be a wolf in sheep's clothing. Fletcher has been a superb player n he played a major part in our success in recent seasons. Hv u 4gotten last champions league?
