Interesting point. Maybe there's truth to this whole French/Spanish-speaking thing Macdonald got a lot of abuse on here for and Colo feels that he's not valued any more. When you look at the Debuchy transfer it makes you wonder about the influence Cabaye now has at the club.
Sorry like I don't buy the 'not valued' thing at all. They valued him by making him the highest paid player at the club, the manager compared him to Bobby Moore. Even Cabaye has mentioned in interviews in the past that he sees Colo as out best player. The players all seem to admire and respect him, for me this is either something in his personal life or something directly related to the manager.
