What to do to stay

The day is coming nearer that someone leaves Barça and explains for once and for all what the hell this player has done for the club wanting to get rid of him each summer despite having scored a bunch of goals.

Until that happens, you have to imagine this player walking around in the Camp Nou with a flame thrower or something like that, because if it's just about being weird, being jealous, being selfish, being a prima donna, being a troublemaker, half of the star players of the top clubs would be jobless.

Seen from the outside, it's far more remarkable that other players can stay in the squad year after year while their only known achievement is to be so discrete that most of the time you don't notice them, even when they're out on the pitch.
