Javi Garcia

[chesterbells]

Garcia has certainly had a baptism of fire in his first two games Stoke and Madrid away.

Never looked out of place in either game and I can clearly see he is a well rounded, capable midfield general. Certainly has more overall ability and capacity than my previous man crush NDJ.

In a month's time I expect him to be running the show in the prem.

Not after what I've just seen

Martin Tyler mentioned he doesn't have the legs..

Many people will say he was dismal but I thought he was OK. Passed it well and had to bring down Jenkinson in the last minutes. Being a DM means your going to go in for tackles and someone has to do that job.

What I've noticed is how stationary he is. He doesn't track runners, or move position he will just stand there and allow them to pass it past him. Rodwell is a much better player IMO.

Other than his Stoke goal and second header he has been woeful.

Very very poor today. I'm not sure I even saw a well place pass all afternoon.

I don't know about a replacement for De Jong, more like a replacement for Jamie Pollock and a poor one at that.

He probably had more connected passes than Silva.

better than barry

better than barry

at least you made me smile.

From what I have seen so far I honestly think Rodwell is a better player than Garcia, I thought Rodwell did extremely well when he came on today.

Amazing how quick people are to write a player off.
