May I be the first to say that I wholeheartedly hope he fails miserably.
Long-term injury optional.
Jose has bought him to punish him and continue his anti spaniard agenda
Since he left I have been desperately hoping for him to return to the level he showed with us and to
be once again recognized as arguably the finest midfielder in world football - and perhaps even surpassing previous heights.
It actually hurt me seeing him booed by the fans at Barca, shifted to unfamiliar positions on the pitch, etc.
Now I'll have to hope for him to never again return to that level. Odd.
I wouldn't be surprised if Mou has done it just so he can win a title with Cesc.
