It's not all about that. Javi Garcia was a giant in the midfield, yet he stunk up the whole place, if we were given the option to sign Garcia or the petite sized Fernandinho, I know who most of here would pick, I might even go as far as suggesting we bring our very own youth academy product, Kante back home :)

Javi Garcia was actually a pretty solid and good player who gets unjustified hate for me, this is a poor take he did well for us but just had people who refused to accept him, his only real crime was replacing fan favourite Nigel De Jong.

This didn't stop him being a very important squad member in the 2013/14 season, and quite frankly he was much better player than his hyped up replacement Fernando.

With NDJ before him and both Fernandinho's arrival and now Rodri we've been truly blessed, honestly though I really think Pep would've liked Javi Garcia, he was strong on the ball rarely ever made a bad pass and was very positionally aware.

The main reason people hated Garcia is he didn't cover many yards he wasn't Nigel De Jong but they didn't see what he added, he more more made up for his lack of pace by being positionally spot on and was an important cog in our title win with Gareth Barry sold.

Although we loved Nigel De Jong because fought for every single ball he still had his own weaknesses, like he didn't suit a true possession side and always potentially had a red card in him waiting to happen.

Javi Garcia is deeply disrespected player in our fan base from back then because lets have it right our midfield was pure quality, take Javi Garcia away from our side in the 2013/14 Prem and League Cup winning season and it becomes a lot harder, he took part in 47 games in total 29 games in the league helping us to close out games due to his passing and positioning.
 
Most ideal signing if we can manage it in terms of profile and need in Jan.
