I read that he apparently also said, he has been on the same contract since 2008 and never got a raise. I am sure we were giving him a raise this time around, he just wanted more obviously.
Bacary Sagna Appreciation Thread
The City fans hate him. Blasting him all over forums and twitters. I thought he had an okay game against Bayern, maybe they are just too used to quality players like Zabaleta

Sagna is shit, yaya no where near as good as last year and bringing on Milner definately will not help
Madara Uchiha @RuflessForza 13h
Gotta say, Sagna played like shit today. Total liability. He looked great at Arsenal. Guess maybe so just by comparison to the rest of them
Dreaming @officialbilal16 19h

Sagna is shit and can't wait till Fernando is back him and fernandinho holding will we hard to break?
Sagna was a quality player, he's now picking up his pay cheques.
He was a solid defender but his technique is so so mechanical. He's not good enough for a team like City
We thought he was the best RB in the world at one point. LOL.
I considered him the best RB in PL at one point, but surely nobody thought he was better than Lahm?

We overrate our players. This is known.
Sagna's just old. He was a considerably better player at the peak of his powers than he is now.
The City fans can be ignored, they're just clutching at a storyline around an established player and a newcomer (not that Zabaleta doesn't cast a bit of shade on Bac at the moment).

Objectively, he was a damn good right back for most of his time here. Certainly very few wanted him to be replaced.
And all fans overrate their players. This is also known.

Who's this "we" you are talking about? You and your imaginary friend?
There are people saying that, some deluded Arsenal fans. DaG for one have been saying for years that Sagna is the best right back in the world, world class.
He also said Arteta is the best DM in the league last season and that he has been immense this season. Talk about overrating.
I don't think DaG or anyone else ever said Sagna was the best RB in the world. He was top 5 for a good stretch of a time here though. As a pure defender he was as good as it gets.
He's getting old and lacks motivation at City, his level is gonna drop.
Three games played, zero wins.
As for Carl, one game, one win against Liverpool.
Eh, Jenkinson did nothing of note but immediately picking up a yellow in that game.
Bac was an amazing rightback for over half a decade. He's slowing down now and doesn't play for us anymore. I don't understand why we're still talking about him. Just move on.

Pretty much the entire Arsenal fanbase at one point. I prefer him over Dani Alves was a common one.
Love Sagna, though. Best servant we've had over the years.
