It's quite crazy when you think about what Guardiola did with Sergio Busquets

If you enjoyed this thread you will probably also like the one about Aspas home debut for Celta, when he basically saved the existence of the club
11 years ago today Aspas made his Balaídos debut for Celta, he was 20 years old and that day he saved the club from potentially going out of business.
Celta were struggling in the bottom of the Spanish second division and it was very likely they would not survive a relegation
