Probably bollocks anyway, another midfielder? Never heard of him me like. http://www.footybunker.com/sunderland-to-launch-shock-bid-for-real-madrid-misfit/15034
An attacking midfielder he is, dont know anything of him though he sounds like a Sess type player. Apparently his agent came out a few days ago and said Liverpool were interested. He went to getafe for a couple of years where he was apparently great, then real used a buy back option, but he cant get in the team
Hell of a player. Add him and the creativity in midfields ridiculous... Good job we've got Niklarse to finish all of these chances off.
Got to agree with Charlie Hurley on this one, he's a class player and given our level at the moment he's far too good for us, deserves to be at a Champions League side (So I guess that rules Liverpool out as well) I was watching Revista de la Liga last night and Balague said he was very very close to joining under Benitez and the new Liverpool story is true but Mourinho has changed his mind and told Granero he's part of his plans for the rest of the season.
Had a look at his stat, ok but nowt special like but like I say, I've never seen him. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/player/_/id/106160/esteban-granero?cc=5739
A mate of mine who lived in Spain and still follows the footy there say he's pretty good, but hasn't seen him for a while. Might be a good bet at £6.5mill? I've never heard of him though.
He's a good player, short on pace, good on technique. I don't think he's the kind we need, in all seriousness, if we were to add a midfielder, surely we need someone who will add pace and/or goals? I don't see where this lad would fit in, short of moving Sess permanently wide, and where does that leave Seb or McLean? The only possibility I can see in this, is if Gardner is off (which we know could happen, sadly).
