An extract from Ronalidhinho's soon-to-be-released autobiography titled My Dream, has been deemed as offensive and distasteful by some. X-SFC.com, the club's unofficial fansite, was told that Ronalidinho had been called to the manager's office to discuss about his book as well as his future with the club.

When asked for comments, the player said, "Well. Im not retracting what i said. What i wrote wasnt meant as an insult to any party in particular. Team keeper Weiliang has been giving his best to the team despite work commitments. All im saying is what about the days he's not around? Team manager Derek O'leary was fantastic last weekend but im sure he's not our No.2 keeper. The club is in the transition phase: from sunday kicking the ball around for fun to one that is winning."

As to being left on the bench and playing as a substitute for 20 or so minutes, he's happy to say that it only means that the team is getting stronger and the only way to get in is to buck up.

He also added, "I'm not one who insult. Being insulted, yes. However, criticism is another thing altogether. Without criticism from fellow players, past and present, i wouldnt be playing the way i am today."
