I hope he stays cuz he really isn't that bad. He can score and he can pass. I prefer him to Keita since Guddy doesn't get a free kick against him when he tries to win the ball(unlike dumbshit fishmouth Keita).
He wants more playtime?
He probably will since Barca have so many games next seasson.

buj Said,
I'll agree with anony n ekar on this. If that is the kind of price they are talking about, it's better to hold on to him .... but then there's the question of salary.
I know he's a good player. Maybe not Barca material but I remember his Chelsea days when he used to destroy teams with his through passes. Maybe it's becoz Barca doesn't employ that direct kind of play regularly that makes his contributions rather mute. On top of that, he gets little playing time to hone his skills to adapt to Barca style. If he was in a Barca team when the Phenomenon Ronaldo (the original one) was playing, he would be the one who would puts in the passes for the speedy striker to chase. If only.

He can be sold,doesn't really factor that much.As for the comment about Keita,that was uncalled for. I don't know what Barca you watch,but Keita does score goles and plays well box to box.So get your facts straight before you start disrespecting people.

Keita played well for Barca last season, but like most players he needs time to adapt 100% to the "Barca style". I think we can expect great things from him next season.

FCB Said,
I would rather keep him at barca then sell him for 3.5, cuz he can provide more to barca then what 3.5M would do to us. At least 10M cuz hes a good player and hes not 34 years old, hes only 30, As old as Forlan.

LeónDragón Said,
gudjohnsen, a good player?
unbelieeeeeeeeevaaableeeeeee!!!!!
never involved into any action, always staying aside, okay, good character, but fruitless from head to toes.
try to understand you people, but can't get it.

I think Barca should sell him, but 3.5 is a little bit to low...5 would be ok.
As for annoy about Keita: Yes, I agree with you that Keita often gets free kicks against him since he can't win the ball back eficiently like Toure or Bousquets.
And his smile afterwards annoys me for some reasson.
He can score though, he has a powerful shoot and he's a good header. But he's to offensive for my taste, he is a DM after all so he should be staying back more
