This man may never have seen a hard day’s work…
Tottenham’s Roman Pavlyuchenko netted his first goal for the club last night but not before launching a sensational moan about the long, arduous hours that his horrible new employers have forced upon him.
“I looked at my watch and saw that the training session had gone on for exactly two hours! Then, there is another half an hour in the gym. Two and a half hours. Can you imagine that?
The weights started to get to me, and I stopped and said to the trainer, ‘I can’t do this’. That’s how they work - I’m shocked. I thought it would be a lot easier.”
How this man became a professional sportsman remains unclear.

If you had actually watched the game you’d have realised why calling him lazy was so stupid.

You have taken an interview totally out of context! When he made these comments it was in a light hearted joke. Like James Maw said, last night alone shows how hard he works. Foolish article mate!

Yeah, but he doesn’t like training for two hours.

Lazy journalist writes another ill informed piece for trash paper. How this man became a professional is unclear.

Pav is a physical player and his goal scoring style
will prove itself as a centre forward!…..
he is saying things to throw the media …
if he scores constantly like he did at Newcastle..
great
the goals in the euros were not a fluke!
his movement is natural
he knows the EPL defenders are clocking him!
so this article is classic undermining in the media

Enough slagging off - this is all very legit - he’s lazy and like tottenham he’ll show lots of promise but ultimately disappoint.

Anyone who has ever seen the bloke play wouldn’t call him lazy. It’s really pathetic schoolboy writing.

You are a prick.
