With this poster, expected that it strengthened a centre of the field at first qualities like the one of the 'Sky Blues', but after a campaign and average in the team mancuniano, only has seen 911 minutes of action in a total of 31 commitments, what him relegó to a paper netamente secondary.

"It would not have been in the Eurocopa of this summer if it had not gone me in January. I spoke with the seleccionador of England, Gareth Southgate, on some teams a month before the window of January and he influenced me to remain me in the Premier League in place to go me to the foreigner. I thought that West Ham was the suitable place", sustained.

The exjugador of the Leeds left clear that in Manchester did not go through his best moment anímicamente, admitting that "probably I have lost this 'fire' inside me in the last 18 months", adding the fact that his unambiguous wish was only the one to see action with regularity: "it Wanted to go back to be happy playing to the football".

Never I received this information because if it had asked me that it was there, would have been".

Now, in the West Ham, presents him a new opportunity to leave all these 'bad drinks' backwards and relanzar his career. At least already David Moyes has showed that trusts he and has ranged him in pair of opportunities, giving him 68 minutes of action in front of the Bornemouth and 18' in front of the Manchester United, meetings where has situated him in the zone of mediocentros, sharing works with Edson Álvarez.
