he was never rubbish. he was flat-footed, but that could be coached out of him.
first season was alright (despite all the shit he got for the Sevilla game), would have improved in the second for sure.
he was a project signing. you don't kill a project after one year.

The thing about Chygry is, signing him at that time was the first mistake Barca did. I remember for the first time I couldn't believe the news when I read that Barca signed another defender for 25m when they already had Puyol, Pique, Milito, Marquez and Abidal as CBs in the team. I couldn't get the point for such a deal when you are full covered with 5 great defenders at the time. Ufortunately signing Chygry was another proof of the series of unnecessary signings that Barca did in the past. That happens when you sign players base on obsessions than needs! Exactly the same thing that is going on around Cesc and Sanchez now.
If you discount everything he was criticized for, fact still remains that while neither Puyol and Pique are fast they were still way ahead Chygo. His reactions were that of a turtle and I'm glad we've put it behind us with no damage save 10 mil. which can be chalked up to experimenting.
I am not so sure that pep didn't give his silent blessing for the sale. Rosell would never go against pep if pep felt that strongly about it, no matter what we might think of him. He's a smart guy and knows that keeping pep content is his ticket to stardom.

He won't be the last player to get a shot at Barca and then be sent away. There are special Barca requirements like passing by goalies, speed and passing from defenders, defense and passing from forwards, super passing from midfielders that most excellent players lack.
I'll bet there are 4 players from last year's squad that are on either the must-go or go for any decent offer list. Then problably a couple more the team would consider offers for. Chyggy might not have been on Pep's must-go list, but there was no way he was on the must-stay list either.

Excellent start for Hamit Altintop in Real Madrid. It's been reported that he will undergo surgery for intervertebral discs that will keep him in rehab for at least two months so he will miss the whole preseason, Supercup against Barca and probably couple of first league games. I know he's just a backup, but still..

I just read that too. I still don't see players exiting Real Madrid. I am getting anxious.

Wonder if you sign Naymar, we might see RM cash in on one of your present forwards like Benzema or Higuain

Don't get anxious, it'll take time. With stubborn Pedro Leon and Kaka, undecided Canales and Lass, Gago who doesn't give a toss where he ends up. I don't expect them to go until the beginning of preseason period, unless Madrid signs Coentrao, then we may see Lass take the best offer from the table.
