Jack Grealish

[grim up north]

Garcia was in the top 5 worst players we have had in the last ten years. I can’t believe he is a professional footballer. He will bomb at Barca.

Ridiculous comment

 

[bigceeb]

Well I know that I’m going out on a limb here, but I’ve read the beautifully worded and well constructed arguments and I’ve decided that I’ll stick with following the opinion of the scouting staff for FC Barcelona, the scouting staff for the current Premier League Champions and the Spanish National side on this one.
I think that they’re probably better placed to judge a players ability than those who turned scouse on a young player who fully honoured every day of his contract and never said a word out of turn about our club or our supporters.

I know that I’ll suffer a bit of verbal from the abusers but, I hold that it was a shameful episode and that the many decent folk on this forum would have rightly been aghast if it had been a young international player leaving the dippers and getting a similar ludicrous bile spitting slagging by their hateful feral support.

Just my opinion though.

Oh and also the opinion of the aforementioned internationally recognised experts.

The scouting staff for Barcelona. Reallly?

There’s a whiff of burning martyr about that lot. I for one have nothing personal against Garcia whatsoever and nor do I intend to abuse you. He was however a player with significant shortcomings as a PL defender and quite honestly I’m not disappointed that he’s gone. Automatically discounting that standpoint on the grounds that Pep and the Spanish national team manager like him is your prerogative, but its not a foolproof argument. Professional managers with far more knowledge about the game than you or me have signed Jo, Bony, Charvet and Tal Ben Haim……

I was more annoyed that he got playing time ahead of some of the U23s when we knew he was on his bike.
Sure he's a lovely guy and didn't seem to rock the boat - but he was NEVER going to be a Dias.
Likely to prosper at Barcelona in a far slower and more lopsided league - good luck

You have some questions that will need answering, well aren't you full of your own self importance?

Jack Grealish (typed out in full just for you) is an outrageously talented footballer who it seems Pep wants and wants to come. If he comes, happy days. He will be a superstar in a City shirt imho.

As for the idiot tag, we can all be idiots from time to time, some more often than others. Those that cannot see JG 's talent clearly have a problem. I have seen all manner of idiotic comments demeaning his talent on this thread. How would you describe a poster who thinks he's not good enough for City ?

I have no issue with those that laude him or those that question him. I have an issue with those that call other use 'idiots' just because they have a different view point. I have yet to see a doubter call a definite an idiot. Its seems one way traffic. I know for a fact that this type of arrogant behaviour is driving some people off this thread and forum. A lack of respect for opposing views is shit on any forum. Calling a player Who is not one of ours JR or Jack is shit. Mahrez doesn't get such respect. Even on here.
I fkn hate those shits who call others idiots just for having a different view. They are arrogant by definition and fact.
Suck it up. Not all City fans see things the same way. I sit in the middle. I see the issues as well as the strengths. Some. Of the pro arseholes on here are worse than the Villa fans and RAG imposters. Embarrassing IMHO. They lack grace.

Poor kid getting dogs abuse as per and not even in his own thread

Who was he getting in ahead from under 23

Who was he getting in ahead from under 23

I think you missed the point.
Any of them - I'd rather give game time to players with something to play for at the club, rather than someone who's off.
I'm also specifically referring to the games when the title was as good as won

DeMichelis, Rodwell, Sinclair, Maicon and Bony would disagree!

Certainly wasn't Peps view. Who were the other 4 by the way?
