Kuszczak in Ed attack

06 November 2009 13:18
TOMASZ Kuszczak has launched a stunning attack on teammate Edwin van der Sar. The Polish goalkeeper says he receives no help from United's number one adding that the Dutchman must not like him. Sir Alex Ferguson has dismissed the comments as merely a joke - but at a time when his rearguard is in dissarray, a fallout between two of his goalkeepers is the last thing the United manager will want ahead of Sunday's top of the table clash with Chelsea. Kuszczak said: "To be honest, I must say this and Edwin doesn't like this too much for sure, but he doesn't help me too much I have told him a few times already to give me some more advice because he's got more experience and got many more games under his belt. I say, 'You have to give me something more because I like to know what I do wrong and like to watch other people. Doing that I can take some good from the advice I get.' But I don't know, maybe Edwin doesn't like me. You'll have to ask him. Ferguson tried to put out the flames, saying: 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. Van der Sar's ageless form has left Kuszczak and Ben Foster on the fringes at United. Just this week Ferguson said he would be happy for the 39-year-old to postpone retirement for another year. And with the United manager looking at a host of alternatives across Europe, such as CSKA's Igor Akinfeev, it remains to be seen if Kuszczak will ever get the chance to become first choice at Old Trafford. I've already waited three and a half years, he said. I will wait longer, but my ambition is so big and I want to have a nice feeling after games, be tired and go home and think, 'Oh, you did a good job'.[LNB]
