Eric Garcia to Barcelona

[Coatigan]

Strange conclusion to come to, agreeing to let him leave sooner than later has little to do with how he values him as a player/talent

the only things strange here are your obsession and delusion here, to the point you have created an alternate petty reality.

I know we have, I disagree with it completely.

The sums being talked about are not chump change, we really should have taken it. I can't wait to see this forum in meltdown if we lose out on Haaland over 19/20m Raiola fee for example.

Your right, we aren't going to make that mistake so we went and bought two experienced CBs, I am sorry but we don't need Garcia also. Fernandinho can play the role and id rather play Harwood-Bellis any day of the week.

We won’t lose out on Haaland over a 19/20 m Raiola fee because we didn’t sell Garcia. If we lose out because of that it’s because we don’t want to pay it.

Fabrizio Romano confirming the obvious, 5 year contract agreed - just a question of now or June. Still see it not being official until June

Good luck. He is like a snail and I for one will be glad to see him go.

We're in agreement, Bartomeu was a cancer and indeed it was petty by City wrt Garcia

Why is it petty. City have a valuation on the player. You even pay it or you don’t. Not every club has to sell just because Barca have tapped a player up.

is there a more up their own arse as @FCBarca , what an absolute tool

Why in the world anyone is in here arguing about Eric Garcia of all people is beyond me.

Alfredo Martinez is well placed Barcelona journalist with Onda Cero

Said tonight:

"The chosen central defender is Eric Garcia but City is not about to sell him. In the summer Guardiola had given his agreement for his exit but Soriano refused to sell."


Very specific claim to finger Ferran, Alfredo's style is not to be drawn on innuendo so this rumour in all probability came from Garcia's camp/agents. Refusal to sell for a reasonable fee never made sense but Soriano's stance also suggests it probably came from the owners

Who cares, we all know he’s going to Barcelona, can you beat a different drum now as you’ve beaten this one to death, getting really really boring now, cheers.

Always wonder with fcbarca is he really fcraggy?

Let me get this right? We were 'petty' for not accepting a bid under our valuation?

What actually is 'petty' is La Liga and Barca threatening Messi with court action if he tried to leave for nothing.
Had the season been like any other he'd have been 'free' to go in June, but you challenged him on technicalities!

happy to see the back of him...he isnt cut out to play in the premiership at all.
