That’s to show you their level of quality in football so my Guy they can’t impose themselves to any club of their choice and they must work for it to achieve the goal…no be I want go Madrid or Barcelona play by force or by fire
He should be going to Real Madrid, Barcelona or Manchester City.
Not good enough. Goal return was low and cant be compared to likes of Osimehn and Senior man
