I'm sad to hear that Luis Figo is retiring. I know he's 32 and that's very ancient in the world of football but I've always thought of him as a fantastic player.

Some people may well dissagree with me, Portugese players do have a tendency to fall artistically and disrupt the process of the game, but for me that's just a general stereotype. I've been sat patiently infront of my TV watching the games pretty closely and have not managed to spot Mr. Figo doing the 'slapper dive'.

I wish him all the best in whatever he's going to do from now on and will miss watching him play for the national team.
