It this all true? The Wanderers star import recruit can't get hardly any pitch minutes...

With the player manager dude now speaking out, you have to wonder what's really going on.

He’s won World Cups and Champions Leagues. But he can’t get a start in the A-League

Yeah if he isn’t fit enough to play long minutes, it Juan Mata how skilful he is

Maybe he thought he was going to be able to come to Australia and not play defence. "You merkins press like your life depends on it and when you get the ball back, give it to me."
