I don't know about some of you but to me Stevie just showed his immaturity in handling the whole situation. I mean how difficult is that to ask Rafa face-to-face "am I in your fuc*kin plan going forward or what? I am prepare to give 110% and unless I get the same commitment from the club, the it's better to sell me" Ask not what you can get but what you can give.
To me, he has just tarnish his status as the club's captain as far as I'm concern. It will take his wholehearted declaration of commitment to the club to get it back. Otherwise, he is no more than a glorified immature mercenary in my book...sorry about that but don't think the club can afford this whole circus act season after season. We need to move on, with or without a certain StevieG
