Keeper Wang blasts Chinese fans

MOVE aside Diego Maradona, Rafa Benitez and Raymond Domenech, the tattooed bad boy of Chinese soccer, Wang Dalei, is gunning to be crowned the greatest ranter of 2010.

The managerial trio have produced some crunching comments in the past year but all have been dwarfed by an incredible rant by the young goalkeeper in the wake of a 3-0 defeat to Japan in the Asian Games.

Wang took to the web to explain his feelings for Chinese supporters and reporters.

“It would be flattery to call you fans. You’re just a bunch of dogs. You bunch of morons are the main reason why Chinese football can’t make progress. You throw in stones after a man has fallen into a well.”

Not content to leave well enough alone, Dalei issued a second attack soon after: “Now you guys come out and try to make peace, but your IQ is way below the range.”

After telling reporters that he “really didn’t care about this thing” and suggesting he “didn’t really say any dirty words,” Wang issued a third blast.

“I heard there’s more than 7,000 football journalists in China, and I estimate at least 4,000 of them hate football. I’m not Spiderman. When opponents score, I’m a moron, when I make a save, I’m still a moron.
