Has he said he was unhappy with the manager or unhappy with the club and desperate to leave? No. For all you know he was unhappy as he got back from Newcastle and realised he had forgotten to tape "Sunday Politics" with Andrew Neill. Anything else is just conjecture.He has said that for the first time, he is unhappy with his chosen career. Can you think of anything that might have brought him to have that view?He might have stubbed his toe in the dressing room for all we know. The hot water in the bath might have run out. Stephen Ireland might have not got his round in. We don't know and if every comment by every player was regarded so apocalyptically they'd all be transferred twice a year.

I can't see that the statement "I'm not happy playing football" is open to much interpretation to be honest. He doesn't seem to be talking about anything trivial.
Maybe it has something to do with the abuse he was getting that he later re-tweeted?
How is a tweet from a player's official twitter page not a verified source? It's that player's direct view, unadulterated by journalistic spin, and in this case it's N'Zogbia, and he ain't happy.
We're living in the age of instant responses. Most premier league footballers have far more money than most of us, they're immune from the realities of everyday life etc etc. They post things in the heat of the moment without thinking of the consequences, possibly sometimes egged on by others, pretending to care, whilst secretly enjoying the resultant 'this is terrible' outrage.
The whole point of Twitter seems to me to give another outlet for the self-important to air their views.
