Eric Garcia to Barcelona

[Coatigan]

Don't worry,he'll be alright,he'll still get a good wage.

It will make it easier for them when he isn't playing regularly.

 

[colesy]

He'll fit right in to the defending that was on display against Levante the other night.

 

[applecentral]

Is he still here?.

Hating Laporte

 

[applecentral]

I was referring to Garcia. Laporte is a top player who I want to stay.

I meant he’s probably not happy that Laporte is likely going to take his starting spot in the Spanish national team

Ah ok. Laporte is miles better than Garcia so it is very likely.

 

[BerkshireBlue]

Presume we'll be getting compensation as he's under 24 and was offered a contract which he refuse

Yes but not an awful lot. It's between associations for starters which is a lot less than moving within the FA and he was only here for 4 years.

 

[christened at st marks]

Can't come quick enough

 

[Centurions]

If City Extra are correct then Garcia’s staying . . so maybe some of the hate will stop now?

Hahahahahahahahahaha


Wait? You're serious?

You’re as sharp as a knife fella. I took that in hook line and sinker eh?

 

[hgblue]

A great young player.
Pep, who knows a bit about football, very keen to keep him.
I’m well chuffed.

His pace, his dominance in the air, his excellent reading of the game, the fact he’s impossible to beat one on one, I”d have him ahead of Dias to be honest.

 

[bluetonium]

I get that he has composure and can pass the ball out, but I can't see why he is rated so highly or how he can be a target for a top team. He's a Spain international too.

Granted I'm no professional scout, but he seems slow, below average in the air yet Barcelona seemingly think he's the next Puyol. Maybe he'll kick on, but I just don't see it in him. Though maybe I need to watch some videos of what Dias was like at 19.

Good luck to him returning to the club he wants to be at. Should have gone months ago to be honest.

 

[eastmanc]

Don't think he is good enough for us, so apart from losing out on a decent transfer fee no real loss.

At least it creates a space for somebody else, hopefully one of our youngsters coming through.

Barca are still cunts in this saga though.

They are a horrible club.

Who our Eric, why what’s he done.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.

Nah, he’s only a kid and he’s not fit to compare to Dias, but at least 2 of the biggest clubs in world football want that kid in their first team squads, so he certainly has great potential.
A lot of that gets lost behind the hate thrown at him by those who struggle to let go.
