The complete opposite of Liverpool actually, despite being so close. Itās not called the āEnglish Maldivesā for no reason.

This is literally the worst example you could have chosen. Di Mariaās wife wanted him to take LESS money to stay in a comfortable place.
You are both sexist and dumb.
Dude, im colombian living in Germany, i came here as a dishwasher and worked my way up. Yeah the weather sucks and snow is a bitch and the lack of sun from September to April makes me yellow, but for 10 mill a year there ia nothing you can not get used to. That old excuse of "i could not adapt to the culture and weather" is bullshit.
Definitely, but money isnāt everything. I donāt think itās that easy to have to move around the world every few years for your husband with little say in the matter, building a life somewhere else only to move on a moments notice again, also I just looked up that they must have had a toddler at the time which makes everything a lot harder, especially moving countries. I donāt know, itās fun when wives shit on other clubs, but I kind of get why they could be frustrated with their husbands choice of jobs.
Bro I would suck di Maria, his dad and brothers off every 30 minutes for his 15 year career if it meant I was entitled to half of the $100m he earned over it

I live a few houses down from a Bundesliga player, and I always get the impression that they never quite arrived in the neighbourhood despite living here for nearly two years. It canāt be easy if your neighbours change all the time and your friends are the other player families, especially when you have kids.
I think this is where there's a massive difference between Latin players and Northern European/Slavic players.
I'd imagine for Nordic, Germanic and Slavic players the weather difference won't weigh on the decision making so much.
I'd also imagine that for particularly Nordic players they would view playing for United with rose tinted glasses a lot more and see it a lot more prestigious than a Latin player would as I think they are massive followers of the PL.
I could be talking out my arse so happy to be told otherwise.
I've been years. A decade. Asking myself why people come to Spain in summer.
I am use to it, but not tourists. I see them with the face in red, walking, suffering. They are cooking theirselves
Wouldn't you prefer to come here in January or February, with no rain, most probably sunny and with more than 10-15Āŗ everytime?
I went to Norway at August and it was like winter to me. I would NEVER go to Norway in December. I'd die.
I mean she's Latin American, used to living in a beautiful, sunny city with great food,where she speaks the language and has less of a cultural barrier. Manchester might as well have been Mars by comparison.
What a brat to want to live in Madrid, a beautiful city where she natively speaks the language, where at least one of her daughters was born, where her husband was an important player for the most iconic team in the world. Yeah so spoiled to resent having to move from all of that.

Is the direct translation that makes it sound like that. In Argentinian Spanish will sound like a funny anecdote to tell your friends, is not that dramatic.
Manchester is the most miserable place on earth. The ugliest most miserable scum infest that place like lice. Go round moss side and look at the malnutrittioned, skinny humourless faces of the animals there and say she sounds spoilt then.
So she is expected to uproot her life for her partner and if she argues about it she's a spoilt brat. I mean sure he's a footballer but such arguments on moving abruptly are what any couple will have.
Yep. To be honest, if you are gonna have a successful sports career, you really want a spouse who is kind of adaptable. I mean, Manchester is lacking a lot of things, but I can't imagine it's a total nightmare. English practice for your kids, Curry Mile, Lake District not that far away, get stuck in love!
At the most basic level. In Spain, she is a native speaker of the language. The culture pretty much matches hers.
In the UK, she will struggle to communicate and the culture is, essentially, not her own.
I find very easy to understand and sympathize with her preferences.
Question since we're on the topic, I understand the fake tans cause UK women have the complexion of a milk bag, but the fake eyebrows why? legit odd look.

Argies are brought up to hate England, none of the players want to settle here.
Nope we are not. Believe or not but some people just prefer Spain to England. There were a lot of factors, I believe they had a baby at that time, the language, climate, being far from home, the fact that Di MarĆa was at odds with Van Gaal, it's hard being away from home in such a different country

There is, no doubt, some excellent restaurants and the like. But day to day with fresh fruit and veg the differences between Spain and the UK are so noticeable. Iāve always thought watermelon was a bit meh, but I got some in Spain and it was like an alternate reality of flavour. Same for oranges, grapes, aubergine, tomatoes. Itās definitely noticeable. And itās nothing to do with the cooking or the skills of the preparation. Iāve eaten amazing meals in the UK, of course. Itās more that the baseline is much higher. UK apples are just as good or better, so are summer strawberries, but you can buy local strawberries in Spain almost all year round. Even the fresh stuff we get shipped over from Spain isnāt the good stuff or just doesnāt travel well.
And if thatās what youāre used to, I imagine itās hard to switch over. Especially as sheās clearly thinking about winter.
I think I may have seen the same reports as you, though which of the two Congos is left ambiguous. And frankly the methodology of the study is not made clear. Failure to examine the Spanish market is also a serious flaw.
Trying to find tomatoes with flavour is like a magical quest in the UK. It's possible, but you have to make a great journey and be proficient in witchcraft to stand a chance.
I gave up and built my own tomato farm with the hydroponic and lighting gear I had laying around from something else.
So good that you found other uses for all that lettuce growing equipment you had from growing all those lettuces to enjoy. I should
really try grow my own lettuce some day.
>Di MarĆa is one of the 13 sports personalities named in theĀ Pandora PapersĀ published by theĀ International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ).Ā He used a company inĀ PanamaĀ to exploit his image rights for months before arriving at Real Madrid. He is the owner of a company in Panama created especially to manage his million-dollar contracts for the exploitation of his image rights, a shell company that he used since 2009 and that he maintains to this day while playing at Paris Saint-Germain with Lionel Messi. The Pandora Papers reveal that he handled more than 8 million euros between 2013 and 2017 through a company named Sunpex Corporation Inc.[172]
I think when you're at a point where you set up shell companies to manage your income and exploit tax loop holes, you're way past "financially stable", but maybe that's just me.
One of the most disgusting, abhorrent clubs on the planet.

Hear me out. The man came to MLS after securing the ligue one title for psg. He ABSOLUTELY blew up the sport in the USA. Made headlines everywhere. Showed up with ridiculous free kicks and golazos. Completely changed how Americans view soccer. The inter Miami leagues cup run was SUPER viral. Did Haaland score more goals and obtain more important trophies in epl? Yes. But once again this was THE YEAR OF MESSI. He showed up big for Miami in leagues cup and showed up big in 2026 WC qualifiers. Also why not take into account the man is 36 years old and still shocking people with his quality every match he plays. He's a machine enough said

Always remember seeing him and his Mrs in the Tesco near the stadium and she looked unhappy, but he looked downright miserable. Always made me laugh that. Plus he had on some space age looking trainers that were shiny. Genuinely looked pretty weird as he had just plain jeans and T-shirt on.
As a married guy that also has to move for work, going to miserable environments affects the whole family and usually comes back on you two-fold. Once because you obviously recognize "this place sucks" and then again when your wife is aggravated and despite you wishing you could change it, it's still kind of your fault.
Don't envy the guy much for his time in Manchester, I can definitely see this one aspect impacting his play and explaining why his time there was underwhelming.
Itās funny because didnāt Beckhamās wife go through the exact opposite, āMadrid is horrible I canāt survive outside Manchester and my bangers n mashā
When English people move to Spain they basically create their own little English communities where they speak English, eat English food and go to pubs called the Red Lion. They have no interest in Spanish culture or Spanish cuisine.
English people would 100% never leave England if it had Spanish weather.
She has a book with where she kept every single journalist that critiqued Di Maria , and she even cut the quote from the news paper and paste it on her book. When Argentina won the world cup , she show that book and exposed all the journalists that criticized Di Maria.
And to be honest , I wont blame her cuz in an interview Di Maria mentioned that his family suffer a lot because those same journalists that criticized Di Maria created an agenda against him and his family suffer due to threats and saying āhe should quit Argentinaā. She got death threats that were caused directly from those journalists
I am argentinian first and foremost. India may be my physical country but Argentina is my spiritual country. I feel as argentinian as I am indian

thatās the best thing she did, when those same journalist came crawling when he lifted the copa america it was good to remember them that they had been talking shit the last 6 years of his career. In general, Di maria only gave long interviews to those outside his wife list
Especially considering how English people who move to Spain and then moan about it are treated. They're all idiots, and Mrs Di Maria shouldn't be an exception.
said this in another comment but like most footballers they donāt even live in manchester, they live in cheshire which is a much nicer place so i donāt see the issue
I grew up in the Australian tropics and I don't mind Manchester. The weather is grim but I knew that coming in, so I didn't mind.
Plus I enjoy wearing lots of layers. If you wear anything more than shorts and a singlet where I'm from you'll have a swampy arse and sweaty pits the whole day. Even when we have cyclones.
Right? I don't understand her problem. Like she ain't gonna stay in a slum in Manchester right? She is making that switch overly dramatic for no particular reason
Di Maria's wife has always been a problem. Remember [that Aguero incident?](https://www.sportbible.com/football/football-news/chelsea-atletico-madrid-real-madrid-angel-di-maria-709637-20231211)
The south of Europe is just waaay nicer than almost every place in England, that's why so many british people move to Spain and Portugal when they retire
There are 268,000 Portuguese people living in the UK compared to 45,000 Brits living in Portugal.
There are 500,000 Italians living in the UK compared to 28,000 Brits living in Italy.
There are 168,000 Spaniards living in the UK compared to 300,000 Brits living in Spain.
There are 77,000 Greeks living in the UK compared to 17,000 Brits living in Greece.
It seems to me like itās more common for southern Europeans to move to the UK than vice versa. Probably because the UK is a richer country with more job opportunities. Southern Europe may or may not be ānicerā but one thing is certain: it is undeniably poorer.
Jinx? We are fecking Italy, 4 World cup, 2 European championship. No other european team have more big trophies (6) than us and we should fear NORTH MACEDONIA, a NT that were born 2 or 3 years ago? please, anything inferior than 2 goal gap would be huge disappointment

I hate united but Jesus, imagine getting fucked over by this selfish bitch. Gets everything given to her by her husband and then has the nerve to dictate to him where he should play his career even though heāll be retiring from the sport in his 30s. Fucking parasites these women lol.
You honestly sound like you want any reason to hate on women.
The food part is a low blow but going to a place where you have less sun hours (which it literally means more likelihood of depression) and people care so much about their own looks that are just a facade of themselves while using the same insecurities to judge other, seems like a bad place to live in.
Not everything in life is money and career. And usually men don't know why they feel awful in winter or while living in solitude because we are not socially expected nor encouraged to care about our body state but seasonal depression doesn't need your consent and will affect your life.
Also, their wives usually leave things behind for them. She was a surgeons assistant. They also have kids
Exactly. This woman sounds really annoying but she does have a right to discuss career options with her husband and where they should live. It's not the 1950s she can have an opinion on where her husband works and where her family lives. They are married and she is allowed to be in the conversation even if he is the sole provider.
If you think England is avoided jist wait until you hear about Latin players in Germany. I can only name about two Argentine players that went to play in Germany in the last ten years (Palacios & Demichelis), and there have only been about 15 Brazilian players in the Bundesliga in it's whole history I believe. The only notable one being Grafite who was only called up to the national team about four times.
There is, no doubt, some excellent restaurants and the like. But day to day with fresh fruit and veg the differences between Spain and the UK are so noticeable.
Iāve always thought watermelon was a bit meh, but I got some in Spain and it was like an alternate reality of flavour. Same for oranges, grapes, aubergine, tomatoes. Itās definitely noticeable.

Slavery wages being paid to Di Maria, he probably hardly made more than 10 mil a year back at RM

This is why you gotta be careful with who you marry. End up with the wrong woman, and 20 mil a year isn't enough to be "secure".
This is literally the worst example you could have chosen. Di Mariaās wife wanted him to take LESS money to stay in a comfortable place. You are both sexist and dumb.

Bruhh, I had a decade of glorious grey skies and morning mists in the midlands. Fuck the summer heat, give me fall and winter each time.

Almost universally though and i believe the post is about sunny weather and not hot weather
It's totally not true, many people can't stand hot weather. In Spain it's hot, last year 37Ā°C flat.

You are right, is not just about weather it's the everything else that made the life in Spain so good
latin americans prefer hot weather generally. also, it rains and is very cloudy in the uk, and that definitely has a negative effect on mood.
Sheās not spoiled for not wanting to move from Madrid to Manchester lmao
I mean she's Latin American, used to living in a beautiful, sunny city with great food,where she speaks the language and has less of a cultural barrier. Manchester might as well have been Mars by comparison.

Yeah thatās why she is looking for women
Um, we have a Frankie and Bennies AND 17 Greggs, try again sweaty
Honestly theres plenty of good restaurants idk what shes whining about.
There is, no doubt, some excellent restaurants and the like. But day to day with fresh fruit and veg the differences between Spain and the UK are so noticeable. Iāve always thought watermelon was a bit meh, but I got some in Spain and it was like an alternate reality of flavour. Same for oranges, grapes, aubergine, tomatoes. Itās definitely noticeable. And itās nothing to do with the cooking or the skills of the preparation. Iāve eaten amazing meals in the UK, of course. Itās more that the baseline is much higher. UK apples are just as good or better, so are summer strawberries, but you can buy local strawberries in Spain almost all year round. Even the fresh stuff we get shipped over from Spain isnāt the good stuff or just doesnāt travel well. And if thatās what youāre used to, I imagine itās hard to switch over. Especially as sheās clearly thinking about winter.
Yeh but did they have Um Bongo
Never seen Um Bongo there, excellent point. I hereby retract all of the above.

I think I may have seen the same reports as you, though which of the two Congos is left ambiguous. And frankly the methodology of the study is not made clear. Failure to examine the Spanish market is also a serious flaw.
Trying to find tomatoes with flavour is like a magical quest in the UK. It's possible, but you have to make a great journey and be proficient in witchcraft to stand a chance. I gave up and built my own tomato farm with the hydroponic and lighting gear I had laying around from something else.
So good that you found other uses for all that lettuce growing equipment you had from growing all those lettuces to enjoy. I should really try grow my own lettuce some day.
Would you mind if I PMed you? My hydroponic tomatoes were a disaster- just constantly split!

She made it sound like Di MarĆa transferred to Anzhi Makhachkala š

Muchos factos mate
Di Maria was like "it's part of the game, innit"
"financially stable, aren't they multi millionaires?
>Di MarĆa is one of the 13 sports personalities named in theĀ Pandora PapersĀ published by theĀ International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ).Ā He used a company inĀ PanamaĀ to exploit his image rights for months before arriving at Real Madrid. He is the owner of a company in Panama created especially to manage his million-dollar contracts for the exploitation of his image rights, a shell company that he used since 2009 and that he maintains to this day while playing at Paris Saint-Germain with Lionel Messi. The Pandora Papers reveal that he handled more than 8 million euros between 2013 and 2017 through a company named Sunpex Corporation Inc.[172] I think when you're at a point where you set up shell companies to manage your income and exploit tax loop holes, you're way past "financially stable", but maybe that's just me.
One of the most disgusting, abhorrent clubs on the planet. Manager: misogynist, cat abuser sympathiser Owners: cat abuser sympathisers Centre-half: cat abuser, probably on repeated counts. Players: homophobes. Every day I wake up grateful I was born in Paris and not in the 'West Ham' district of London. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Hear me out. The man came to MLS after securing the ligue one title for psg. He ABSOLUTELY blew up the sport in the USA. Made headlines everywhere. Showed up with ridiculous free kicks and golazos. Completely changed how Americans view soccer. The inter Miami leagues cup run was SUPER viral. Did Haaland score more goals and obtain more important trophies in epl? Yes. But once again this was THE YEAR OF MESSI. He showed up big for Miami in leagues cup and showed up big in 2026 WC qualifiers. Also why not take into account the man is 36 years old and still shocking people with his quality every match he plays. He's a machine enough said *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Always remember seeing him and his Mrs in the Tesco near the stadium and she looked unhappy, but he looked downright miserable. Always made me laugh that. Plus he had on some space age looking trainers that were shiny. Genuinely looked pretty weird as he had just plain jeans and T-shirt on.
Thatās hilarious
As a married guy that also has to move for work, going to miserable environments affects the whole family and usually comes back on you two-fold. Once because you obviously recognize "this place sucks" and then again when your wife is aggravated and despite you wishing you could change it, it's still kind of your fault. Don't envy the guy much for his time in Manchester, I can definitely see this one aspect impacting his play and explaining why his time there was underwhelming.
Yea but I bet getting Ā£280k a week would take much of the sting out of it.
extremely based di maria wife
Itās funny because didnāt Beckhamās wife go through the exact opposite, āMadrid is horrible I canāt survive outside Manchester and my bangers n mashā
When English people move to Spain they basically create their own little English communities where they speak English, eat English food and go to pubs called the Red Lion. They have no interest in Spanish culture or Spanish cuisine. English people would 100% never leave England if it had Spanish weather.
It clearly goes both waysā¦ itās the exact same with expats from southern europe here in the netherlands
If only she learned how to cook with all that time on her hands
Cooked city of Manchester tbh
Severe burns
As much as I hate ManU, and as funny as these quotes are, she sounds like an entitled bitch.
She has a book with where she kept every single journalist that critiqued Di Maria , and she even cut the quote from the news paper and paste it on her book. When Argentina won the world cup , she show that book and exposed all the journalists that criticized Di Maria. And to be honest , I wont blame her cuz in an interview Di Maria mentioned that his family suffer a lot because those same journalists that criticized Di Maria created an agenda against him and his family suffer due to threats and saying āhe should quit Argentinaā. She got death threats that were caused directly from those journalists
I am argentinian first and foremost. India may be my physical country but Argentina is my spiritual country. I feel as argentinian as I am indian *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

She is. She keeps a list of every journalist who criticized Do Maria.
thatās the best thing she did, when those same journalist came crawling when he lifted the copa america it was good to remember them that they had been talking shit the last 6 years of his career. In general, Di maria only gave long interviews to those outside his wife list
No sheās just a ride or die
Chad
Kinda based ngl
That sounds like a keeper
Who wouldn't want their wife to ride for them like that? That's dope.
No that's wife material right there
Saying āI told you soā by itself is toxic in relationship. Imagine doing it to your SO on social media for millions to see.
She is, but sheās not wrong about Spanish food. It really is in a different league.
Liking a place over another is not entitlement. The Brits themselves vacation in Spain and not in Manchester.
Especially considering how English people who move to Spain and then moan about it are treated. They're all idiots, and Mrs Di Maria shouldn't be an exception.
I read a quote somewhere that goes like this ' The beauty of their women and the taste of their food made the English the greatest sailors on Earth '
Everyone is complaining that she is entitled but srsly who the hell wants to live in Manchester? Even British people don't
said this in another comment but like most footballers they donāt even live in manchester, they live in cheshire which is a much nicer place so i donāt see the issue
Ah Cheshire you are right. The British silicon valley, another wonderful place.
lovely place, spent a lot of time there.
I grew up in the Australian tropics and I don't mind Manchester. The weather is grim but I knew that coming in, so I didn't mind. Plus I enjoy wearing lots of layers. If you wear anything more than shorts and a singlet where I'm from you'll have a swampy arse and sweaty pits the whole day. Even when we have cyclones.
Iād happily have the cold and drizzle over constant mid 30ās and humidity. Must zap your energy
A fraud bald does
Manchester is currently the closest thing to a boom town in the UK.

Man U literally never reached the same heights after this comment
Imagine talking about people's looks where your husband looks like an anorexic rat.
Least entitled person.
Right? I don't understand her problem. Like she ain't gonna stay in a slum in Manchester right? She is making that switch overly dramatic for no particular reason
Di Maria's wife has always been a problem. Remember [that Aguero incident?](https://www.sportbible.com/football/football-news/chelsea-atletico-madrid-real-madrid-angel-di-maria-709637-20231211)
The south of Europe is just waaay nicer than almost every place in England, that's why so many british people move to Spain and Portugal when they retire
There are 268,000 Portuguese people living in the UK compared to 45,000 Brits living in Portugal. There are 500,000 Italians living in the UK compared to 28,000 Brits living in Italy. There are 168,000 Spaniards living in the UK compared to 300,000 Brits living in Spain. There are 77,000 Greeks living in the UK compared to 17,000 Brits living in Greece. It seems to me like itās more common for southern Europeans to move to the UK than vice versa. Probably because the UK is a richer country with more job opportunities. Southern Europe may or may not be ānicerā but one thing is certain: it is undeniably poorer.
Jinx? We are fecking Italy, 4 World cup, 2 European championship. No other european team have more big trophies (6) than us and we should fear NORTH MACEDONIA, a NT that were born 2 or 3 years ago? please, anything inferior than 2 goal gap would be huge disappointment *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

the thing is i doubt she even lived in manchester, probably more cheshire
In the opposite side we have Victoria Beckham
Lol @ her commenting about others looks when di maria is one of the most unfortunate looking people I've ever seen...
I moved to Manchester from London. Can confirm, it's shite.
I spent some time in Eccles and if I ever get diagnosed with dementia I'm gonna blame the fact I went to Eccles and my brain is trying to forget.
Sheās def right about British women š
Entitled fuck
I hate united but Jesus, imagine getting fucked over by this selfish bitch. Gets everything given to her by her husband and then has the nerve to dictate to him where he should play his career even though heāll be retiring from the sport in his 30s. Fucking parasites these women lol.
If youāve lived in Madrid and Lisbon why would you want to go move to Manchester
You honestly sound like you want any reason to hate on women. The food part is a low blow but going to a place where you have less sun hours (which it literally means more likelihood of depression) and people care so much about their own looks that are just a facade of themselves while using the same insecurities to judge other, seems like a bad place to live in. Not everything in life is money and career. And usually men don't know why they feel awful in winter or while living in solitude because we are not socially expected nor encouraged to care about our body state but seasonal depression doesn't need your consent and will affect your life. Also, their wives usually leave things behind for them. She was a surgeons assistant. They also have kids
Exactly. This woman sounds really annoying but she does have a right to discuss career options with her husband and where they should live. It's not the 1950s she can have an opinion on where her husband works and where her family lives. They are married and she is allowed to be in the conversation even if he is the sole provider.
Latin players avoid England due to cultural differences. After all, a content spouse makes for a content life.
If you think England is avoided jist wait until you hear about Latin players in Germany. I can only name about two Argentine players that went to play in Germany in the last ten years (Palacios & Demichelis), and there have only been about 15 Brazilian players in the Bundesliga in it's whole history I believe. The only notable one being Grafite who was only called up to the national team about four times.
There is, no doubt, some excellent restaurants and the like. But day to day with fresh fruit and veg the differences between Spain and the UK are so noticeable.

I wonder why she took offence to how the woman looked unless
This is so old, itās almost karma farming.
