Ever considered that said fan is willing to give the lad a chance to adapt to a new team, country, playing style, manager (twice) and everything else that goes along with moving from a team where you have made your name.
For the record, I think Garcia is a good player. If I was the City manager I wouldn't play him ahead of Yaya, Rodwell or Fernandinho etc but so what. Doesn't mean I can't rate Garcia.
I wouldn't criticise if he was 20k a week but he's on 80k. We cannot have keep a player who's 4th or 5th choice who's on that money. It's a waste. RVP was on 90k pw at Arsenal and won player of the year. Kind of puts perspective the value for money argument. I'd sooner use Razak as a utility player as it aids development and saves 4.6m a year off the wage bill. The fact he's on the same money as Jovetic and Navas is shocking. If Txiki was here last season I'm certain Garcia would not be here.
Don't see this as hate, the lads done nothing to get that. It's just my/our club would be financially better off without him and we wouldn't miss him imo. I'm gutted to think that Barry leaves and Garcia stays. That's wrong imo.
This is spot-on IMO.
The money arguement is nonsensical as ever. Its not our money that pays him. so why worry about it.
Pellers probs knows far more about Javi than any poster on here does ad he seems very happy to involve him. If we go 4-3-3 as im sure Javi will be the central of the midfield 3 and despite some of the pathetic posts on this thread he will do the job well. Too many people on here thought he was the replacement for De Jong, he aint, he is a better more aware footballer not just a destroyer.
I fucking hate the fact we always have to have a scapegoat. It really is fucking ridiculous
