I've never rated him at all but can fully understand that as a Spaniard, he'd want to be involved in the new Galactico era. Before someone points it out, I know he's not a Galactico but the chance to be part of a new, exciting project in his home country is bound to be of interest. Plus if, and it's a big if, he plays regularly, he's a shoe in for South Africa, something he may not have been at Liverpool. The anatagonism & bitterness shown here is daft, almost Evertonesque.
