Javi Garcia (continued)

[Blackcrowes]

Fucking man of the match all day and all night.
This boy showed what he can do today.
Funny how Hazard didn't have so much as a sniff with this lad in the middle breaking play up.

Well done Javi Garcia.

Agreed - I have never forgiven him for going straight down the tunnel at Dortmund last year.

Today he was awesome.

There was a reason he kept Matic out of the team at Benfica.

Dare I say, and never thought id say.. but he played as well as Fernandinho did against Arsenal tonight. Are we about to unveil the best 3 midfield in the world?

Garcia - Fernandinho
Toure

Against the bigger teams, and them all in form (Garcia playing like he did) then well.. Jesus.

 

[bluesmith]

Playing to the same standards he has done for the last few months, maybe with more chance to showcase himself with a little less attacking flair. Good to see he is being noticed now.

 

[bluegonads]

had his best game today but, (taking nothing away from him) yaya and silva always made themselves available to him in more deeper positions than usual, always there for a knockdown or short lay-off.
those tactics were spot on in this game.
impressed.
that said, the barcelona midfield will play all round, and straight through him.

Javi & Joleon were both excellent today . Congrats to manuel today he outmanoeuvred jose . Shame we didn't have this side out last week...

Two of this sites 'marmite' players, both deserve the plaudits today. Is it just me? and I have said it for a while, Vinny looks even better when Joleon is by his side!

 

[Number 1 is Colin Bell]

To be fair I thought he was great tonight as well as Lescott - and those two always give me palpitations when they are on the ball - let's give credit where it is due!

 

[cookster]

Ace today!

 

[We'reNotReallyHere]

Incredible today. I've given him a fair bit of stick but he's been decent recently.

 

[Celeste]

By far the best I have seen him play today - getting better by the game, had a good game against Blackburn, and a shame he's been injured. Long may he continue to improve. Great to see him getting the credit he deserves.
