Maybe Pep and Txiki are bluffing about wanting to keep him for a year to try and make Barca pay a little more. Who knows?
You fucking liarAnyone fancy a game, I'm uglier than Phil Jones so I'm hoping I can win by distraction.
True, I don't think I'd win anyway.You fucking liar
Barça will not pay for Eric Garcia the same as what City has invested in Ferran Torres (23 + 12), a player who was a 1st team player at Valencia (85 appearances vs 22)
If a reasonable agreement is not found, around 10 million, the club will wait for him to be freely signed in January

You have not got a pot to piss in, you're skint.I don't disagree. I can only assume all of this is public negotiating but strange at the same time since all those involved know eachother quite well. How it can play out is clear and Pep & Txiki know full well no board would be open to overpaying much less market value for a player of their own who left despite being prioritized (Going out the backdoor, as it were). Eric knows this and certainly Pep & Txiki do too
I was thinking again about how Pep described the announcement of Garcia and I couldn't decide if it was anger or disappointment from him but I also cannot imagine this going beyond summer. There are negative consequences for City to hold onto a player in Eric's situation since I do not see it equal to Leroy, for example
Txiki is sharp, certainly sharper than our sporting reps so I think it gets done quickly, and hopefully without too much bad blood - would not be good for anyone
