Greed is never wearable

Warning; angry football-related post.

Tobias Linderoth, former Swedish football star and national player has been terminated from his contract (6 months left) with Turkish club, Galatasaray. Only allowed to have 6 international players at the squad this must have come as no shock. Arrived as a celebrated star and savior the hopes and expectations were surely as high as his paycheck. Being injured most of his time he roughly played about 4 games in his 4 years at the club. Making the determination fully acceptable and more - expectable.

Surely he must feel in debt to the club who stood out with his none-participation and solely picking up wage. Right? As a small token of gratitude, for the patience and everything the club has shown him. Yes. So one might think. But since he's Swedish, and Swede's love to cuddle with Swede's - especially if you're from the poor old countryside (this case Boras - Sweden's most countryside place; located far out west where only farmers and fishermen reside) the news seem to ask no secondary question when in interviews, he - seemingly seriously - talks about how he will sue Galatasaray for the 6-months pay they "owe" him for what's left on his contract.

There is a player, let's call him Louis Saha, former Man United player; now in Everton, who when he was injured refused to lift any wage - solely cause he felt he didn't earn it. - He wasn't playing. As agreed on in his contract. Not only did the fans love him. He earned everyone's respect too. Tobias deserves none.
