Said before...the lad didn’t break a sweat when Moonhead went for him first time. His heart was set on Athletico until the transfer ban. Left Barca, backed himself at La Roselda with buy out clause of €5m. Did well for Malaga & all going well for the lad as Athletico showed interest. Off field matters put that to bed.
Reckon the kid dreamt of playing in L4 all his life? Not driving, relying on lifts to work in sunny FF, joining a team where only the reserve keeper & an injured Argentinian international out for the season spoke tres cervezas per favor...and make them grande? Thinking your the main man because you played at Barca & you’ve a few tatts and can nod to Ramos because you got called up once?
Not surprised it didn’t work out myself. Not pulling oranges out the trees at Seville either. Last time I saw this kid he was running the only way the ball could never come at home v Chelsea. But the £100k per week ain’t a chore to collect is it? Sums up all that’s wrong with us at the moment - he don’t want to be here, on what I’ve seen seen to date, he ain’t good enough to be here...but he’ll be back here because of the dough he earns here.
Maybe I’m wrong and this lad will be the bargain buy of 2017 and the best is yet to come. I ain’t counting on it.
