I hate him as much as its possible to hate one of your own players, whilst remembering that football is just a game and appreciating that he is only looking after his own interests.
He has taken this club for a ride since he arrived and now nobody else is willing to pay his ridiculous wages demands, not to mention no elite club in Europe being remotely interested, we are caving in to this moron.
It's so ill advised of Jose to keep him at the club and he rightly deserves to fall on his sword for this kind of decision.
We are scarily heading towards another season of abject failure of which this is the most symbolic precursor.
