Not sure that he does have an enormous ego to be fair. He is the very epitomy of a confidence player, isn't he, which suggests that he has a fragile ego.

Dunno. I'm not a psychiatrist, but thats how it seems to me.

Remembering the way he ran to celebrate in front of the Arsenal fans when he scored for ManC against them, how he stamped on Van Perse and his press comments about him undermining AVB amongst the rest, no one can convince me he is fragile enough for me to like or feel sorry for him.

You may well be right, but this does ring a bell doesn't it?:

"I never trust them. They are the country that will always let you down.[...]
But the thing is [...] They will be talking, laughing and enjoying themselves but when the time comes, they will forget about their job."

- sounds like Ade to me...

All of that raises him in my estimations.
