He can continue to act professionally by training and playing for the club he is under contract to. If he didn't want to play for Liverpool this long he shouldn't have signed the contract.
Signing a contract doesn't mean you have to give up your rights.
And Liverpool or Spain.No contest
And by the same token, Liverpool, as depressing and hateful place that it is, have the right to expect this guy to honour the contract that he was so keen to sign when it gave him a load of dosh for singing, then a load more dosh deposited into his bank account every week. The moment he wants to break the contract his agent / minder bleat about the club holding him ransom, and it being very unfair on the player.
Sick of hearing about players and their rights, by agents and others, what about a football clubs right to keep the players who signed the contract in the first place, and they werent made to sign it with a gun being held to their heads.
this kind of behaviour by players like these, as well as players who think there above the law (ie nearly every player in the prem, especially those with a GB Passport), is the reason the most folk despise the modern day footballer.
What you or a club expect to happen and what actually does is totally different.And it looks to me as if Javier is rich enough to tell livefool to go and kiss his arse
I agree. All im saying its a bit much for a player to scream about not being allowed to do this, that or the other, yet when a club wants a bit of loyalty it costs them mega dosh, a fat contract, and the possibility of a player suddenly having his head turned by another fat signing on fee at a new club.
Contracts count for sod all, but a player cant complain if a club suddenly starts pissing them about, cos the chances are the very same player has done the same pissing about to the same club, to get the move/wages/perks in previous negotiations.
