Ladbrokes have doubled their stand sponsorship to allow us to blow Barcelona out of the water.

I have been thinking about the OP...

You could call that "Mind over Mata"

He’s making that much money with his tapas bar on Deansgate he’ll probably play for free.

I’d love this but can only see him going back to Spain.

We ate in there before our game at Old Trafford in January and the food was fantastic. Cracking restaurant.

Would love this. Sadly there are loads of reasons it wouldn't happen.

I like him, he comes over as a really well balanced person.
But he'd never get in a Dyche team!

Which is ironic given some of the managers he has played for :D

Do you think he would open a tapas bar at t'Turf? Match day tapas and sangria, anyone?

Ok so it is 99% likely to be BS BUT he would be an amazing signing, switch to 451 and I’d fancy us for a top 10 finish. Also I think we could get away with him breaking our existing pay structure. Not going to get many of our players comparing themselves to him in terms of ability.

He seems to enjoy living around the Manchester area and as mentioned above owns a restaurant, giving him further reason to stay. But sadly, can't quite see him in a BFC shirt next season. Everton on the other hand...
