Happy for him, he deserves it. He's of Belleti's level max and it's good to see him squeezing every ounce of talent he had.

Have fun in Madrid!

In everyone's World Cup best XI and the official one too btw

Not really surprising since Spain won the WC, Pedro Porro was also on the other side.

If only we were all just so emotionally mature as you, is that right? Maybe we should just try and hand wave off racism, thats pretty emotionally mature...right?

You don't have to use me as your role model, just a standard one will suffice for you lot. And why did you suggest about hand wave off racism by any means? You're not accusing me, are you?

Yes, when you decided that this "Did he initiate the song or just sing along due to wc euphoria victory?" was somehow relevant.

I think you got the wrong idea. That line was used to point out he got 'caught in the moment'. Never once I said it's okay for him to do that just because he sang along. You have a weird comprehension if you think that way.

Everybody who sang that song are wrong but the one who initiated is more wrong. That 'caught in the moment factor' is the one I used to consider his apology acceptable and thus move on, no need to put it as lifetime crime for him. Remember that he has apologized, had he not, then I wouldn't be so kind with my view.

I thought he had an excellent world cup. As i said previously there are many players I would have sold before considering letting Cucurella go. He isn't a great defensive full back and can be a bit headless sometimes but he was one of very few players in our squad who showed up week in week out with what I considered to be a committed to the team winning mentality. That goes a long way for me. Yes it should be the minimum expectation of any professional footballer but the truth is many don't have it.

Fully agree here. I think a lot of fans on here have always had something against him and I don’t understand why.

He’s one of the most committed players we have and we sold him.

Just like the Euros he’s been one of the best most consistent performers during the World Cup.

We will miss his mentality a lot this season.

He wasnt very committed the last 4 months of last season, in fact he was an absolute disgrace for the majority of it and was blatantly saving himself for the world cup.

Commitment is the bare minimum you should expect from someone earning 180k a week.
