I think average is fair, doesn’t take away his legend status now though. Don’t rewrite history it is what it is.

Javi Garcia was literally the worst player I have ever seen in a city shirt and I’ve been going since 86.
Are you sure

Nastasic used to wind me up. So soft. I wasnt a fan.He was an upgrade on Savic at that time who he replaced, although Savic has since gone on to have the better career, but his antics for Athletico against us shouldnt be forgotten.

Have a think of the utter shite that played for us from 86 til 2008. I reckon with a spare 10 mins i could come up with a full 11 plus subs who were worse. Maybe even another 11.Javi Garcia was literally the worst player I have ever seen in a city shirt and I’ve been going since 86.

Weve had some fuckin dross. Go before 86 (the year stoned rose referred to) and it gets worse. Tony cunningham. Doninic sullivan, trevor christie, and that little **** we signed from brum, robert hopkins.
But yeah, even post 86 and up to quite recent times there has been way worse than garcia. And he was shite

The last game of the season, was it v derby? Cant remember but he bagged 2 and looked the part and i thought he would come good that next seasonDon’t recall that at all, of all the signings in that window Rodwell excited many due to his early career. Looked a real player at times.

Couldn’t disagree more. Part of me understands why Barton gave Dabo a hiding.Javi Garcia was literally the worst player I have ever seen in a city shirt and I’ve been going since 86.

Yep, people were constantly moaning that he was in the team in Pep's early seasons. What does he do? He wasn't the obvious spectacular talent of Toure or Silva. But perhaps it was more our collective failure to notice what he does, rather than him actually being average. I think people didn't really appreciate him until his 17 goal season, but even though he never repeated that, people realised how important he was for controlling games.I think average is fair, doesn’t take away his legend status now though. Don’t rewrite history it is what it is.
