About Alves, people need to understand why we even got him. He himself wanted to still compete at the highest level and therefore chose us. That tells you a lot about the mindset he had (People like Badass were against this nove remember? They didnt want the finished leech Alves to come collect his last paycheck at Juve), coming to a CL challenger instead of going for the EPL or China money, which he could easily have done, he wanted to compete at the highest level and prove that hes still the best in his position (which he absolutely did, was the best player in the world for the last 3-4 months together with Ronaldo). 12 months later he (apparently) wants to leave, why that is i dont know. But keeping an unmotivated Alves would not be the solution, same as with Tevez, so if he feels like he doesent want to be a part od us anymore, then he should be let go. These are humans we are working with here after all, not robots
