he is a good player, last season he had a lot of injuries. plus the fall out with rafa. over his wife and flying to spain to see her having there baby born. rafa does not like anyone not doing as he says. and alonso was asked to stay for a euro tie he said no and went to spain. do i blame him no, but why his wife was in spain giving birth hell knows. still i yhink the guy has class the only thing missing from his game is goals. and i think if rafa played him further up he would score more. but if we get barry it would make sense to let him go. as i have said before he can,t be that bad if arse want him?
