    I think Messi, Suarez & Neymar would tell him he does not need to play in the EPL to earn mega bucks in all honesty

    If he was as good as Messi, Suarez or Neymar then Granada would not be were they are at present .But he could come to the great Watford who will bring the best out of him and show the best in Europe that they should fear us . than Barcs will be coming to try and buy our reserve

    Your forgetting his age (17) you can not expect a player of his age to lift a team all by himself over a season and I was answering your point about his earning potential in my reply. Also think of how much he could learn just by training with those three players!!!! If Barca came calling most players would be tempted i am sure.

    I don't know the details but the result itself is not surprising in the slightest.
    Our friends in Italy are playing Frosinone this afternoon. I don't think Udinese are in any real relegation danger but three points today will settle any lingering doubts.

    Quite so. The difference is that their fans think that they should be at least challenging for a Europa League place of not Champions League as they've qualified before. La Liga is of course a different proposition for Granada.

    Udinese have sacked boss Stefano Colantuono nine games from the end of the season after a run of form that has left them in danger of relegation.

    Colantuono, 53, was appointed last June on a two-year contract.

    The Serie A club tweeted on Monday that Colantuono and his backroom staff had been "relieved of their duties".

    Udinese are 15th in the 20-team division, four points above the relegation zone after securing only one win from their last 11 games

    None of the Udinese fans I chat with will be unhappy about this. A few of them want QSF of course, many are jealous of our relative success. Granada play tonight.

    Granada 1-1 Español

    Shot themselves in the foot: played for over an hour with ten men, take the lead and then give away an own goal with less than ten minutes remaining. Really needed to win this one.:headbang:

    Udinese who sacked manager Stefano Colantuono nine games from the end of the season have replaced him with ex-QPR boss Luigi de Canio.
    De Canio, who signs a contract until the end of the season, previously managed Udinese from 1999 to 2001.

    Español won today so Granada have it all to do still.

    Udinese are 1-0 up at Sassuolo.

    Not me. Still sitting by the phone, Quique. Starting to annoy the family as I won't let anyone else use it, just in case I miss your call.
