That sculptor needs to have his eyes gouged out.

Cristiano Ronaldo: I learned art of football at Manchester United
Cristiano Ronaldo has paid tribute to Manchester United for teaching him "the art of football" and revealed how Sir Alex Ferguson surprised him on his arrival in England.
The Real Madrid forward moved to Old Trafford from Sporting Lisbon aged just 18, but went on to help fire the club to an FA Cup, three successive Premier League titles and a Champions League trophy.
He has consolidated his place among football's elite during his time at the Bernabeu, taking his Ballon d'Or haul to four and becoming Real's all-time top scorer, but admits his time in Manchester under 'father figure' Ferguson set him up for success.
"Alex Ferguson was a father for me in football," Ronaldo said. "I learned many things, not just from the coach but the players.
"I improved not just my skills but my body too.
"In the five years that I was [at United] I learned the art of football. It was a dream for me."
Ronaldo wore the No 28 shirt at his boyhood club in Portugal but described how Ferguson sprung a surprise by asking him to pull on the the No 7 - a number famously worn by David Beckham, Eric Cantona and George Best.
"I remember when I left Lisbon for England, Alex Ferguson said to me, 'Listen, I want you to take the No 7'," Ronaldo, speaking at the launch of his new Nike boots, said.
"I was surprised because I knew the guys who wore that shirt. I accepted the challenge, it was great.
"It was the beginning of my success in football. It was probably one of the most beautiful moments in my career so far."

with tonights hattrick ronaldo has scored more goals in the champions league than atletico in their whole history in the competition... He's got some incredible records. I'd love to see a list. My favourite is the one where he could go about 450 games without scoring & still have a better ratio of goals to games than Raul. Some people just don't realise how good he is. |

"United’s flag is deepest red, it shrouded all our Munich dead. Before their limbs grew stiff and cold, their heart’s blood dyed it’s ev’ry fold. Then raise United’s banner high, beneath it’s shade we’ll live and die. So keep the faith and never fear."
