Premier League - Kuszczak 'was just joking'

PA Sport - Fri, 06 Nov 11:37:00 2009

Sir Alex Ferguson has played down talk of a rift between goalkeepers Tomasz Kuszczak and Edwin van der Sar.

2009-10 Premier League Manchester United Tomasz Kuszczak - 0

Kuszczak seemed to attack the veteran Dutchman for not offering him enough support during his time at Old Trafford, claiming he had asked Van der Sar for advice but none had been forthcoming.

As the Poland international made his comments on United's in-house television station, MUTV, it seemed a strange grievance to make.

And Ferguson confirmed anyone trying to convince themselves of a row in the Red Devils camp were misplaced.

"It is just not true," he said.

"Tomasz was cracking a joke. He was laughing when he said it. There is no problem between him and Edwin - maybe it is just that Polish humour doesn't translate to British humour."

  9. I see him as an open person. That may be a common thing­ to discuss openly. I see no problem if he commented­ that. He ask a question he didn't get the answer.
