Anderson insists he does not want to
leave Manchester United, despite reportedly incurring the wrath of
manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
The Brazilian is believed to have vented his frustration at
missing out on a Wembley appearance after being left out of the Red
Devils' starting XI that played Chelsea in the Community
Shield.
Anderson's attitude did not go down well and the 21-year-old has
played in just one of United's three Premier League matches since
talks with Ferguson.
Despite question marks lingering over the former Porto
midfielder's future at Old Trafford, he insists he wants to stay
and that he now knows who the boss is.
"I believed that I would play in the Community Shield but that
is forgotten now," he said.
"I thought that, without Cristiano Ronaldo
around, I could to play more and that has been my
challenge from pre-season onwards.
"But the coach decides the teams and to discuss this with him is
foolish because he is the chief. I do not want to leave United.
No.
"Sir Alex Ferguson has demanded a bigger effort from me and I
accept that. Because to get into this United team is very
complicated and difficult for any player."
