Player Valuation: £40m
He hasn't not been around long enough for me to make me regret his immiment departure too much, I think this is good business for us.
He will undoubtedly have a stellar career however for me will struggle to live up to the standards expected of him, as is the case with the majority if, not all of English players in his peer group. He completely lost Aguero in the air for his goal in the LC Semi-Final, at a pivotal stage in the game.
Martinez' "management" of him did not help his confidence at all but equally I found myself questioning his commitment to us at several points last season.
We can't afford to turn down a fee in this region for a player who has his heart set elsewhere. Best make good use of the proceeds and look to the future.
