It's strange to not like an idea you've just made up mate. It's you criticising yourself.
Commonsense tells you he came here with a package of demands that would have needed to be met. His playing record suggests he doesn't do full seasons - for anyone.
I could well imagine an inducement to come from Ancelotti with an agreement he'd have plenty of down time. It's just unrealistic to expect a player with his record signing on the dotted line without those assurances. Extended international breaks would be good times for him to exercise any understanding like that.
Where is he now? Is he in Liverpool or back home or back in Spain? Or is he at FF getting treatment? Genuine question.
