We saw that the Almeria was too small for him, Badia added.Everything that he was doing was on another level. The speed of execution was completely different compared to the rest Allen Iverson Jersey of the players of the league, not only in the team of the league of the second division in Spain.He was a really important playerfor the team, also histeam-mates knewthat he was going to leave earlier, that he was not going to stay longer because everybody was watching him in the stands.Weknew that this team is coming, the other team is coming, and then in the endwe knew that in a short period he was going to leave and he was going to go on his way.
