I'd snatch their hand off, but it's the sun so it's most likely a load of bollocks.
You would snatch their hand off for £25 million?
I would too. Not because he isn't a very good player but because he can't be trusted. He's spent the last 2 years trying to manipulate a transfer, submitting 2 written transfer requests plus all the other shit ending up with him playing golf in Argentina for 6 months of last season.
I have zero confidence in him being a reformed character and am 100% sure if he will get pissy again and do something to generate bad publicity and maybe even leave us a player short for another half season.
If we could get rid of him for decent cash, enough to provide funds for a replacement (or atleast a decent chunk of a replacement) ) I'd be happy. We proved after he left we don't need him to score goals and who is to say if we had, for instance, Cavani instead of tevez we might not have had our bad spell.
