Gennaro Gattuso is good at this press conference thing.
#Gattuso: "A contract renewal? I'm only focused on getting positive results. I have received too many compliments, I must keep my feet on the ground. I am young and I still have a lot to learn, I have to improve a lot. I would never discuss my contract at this point"#ACMLUD

Gattuso is saying exactly the right things here, saying that he isn’t worried about his contract. And he may not be worried about his contract, but I bet his agent is already trying to get him a better deal. And honestly, he’s earned a raise and a new contract already.
On to the links.
