strikes again - says Granero could go out on loan in Jan as he "has struggled to settle"
I would say he has been one of our 3 best players - Caesar & Nelson being my other 2. |  | | |  |

It says Real Betis want to sign him, after joing for £6m(ever changing price) he has failed to make an impression!!! (GUFFAW) The loan bit is coz Betis are skint so cannot sign anyone.
It's "The Screamer" bit "The talk of football" funny as f*ck or what!!! |  |

Even for the Daily Fail, that story is bollox. |  |

Mind Blowing. Its frightening how they can get away with making things up |  | | |

It's about time reporters have to be able to back up their stories rather than hiding behind things like 'understands'.
'Understands' is simply not enough. Have the facts to back up the article or it can't be published.
Surely there's a regulatory body that can start implementing this sort of thing?

The Fail had a story the other day that Hughes was gone if we didn't beat Reading.
Fernandes quickly tweeted this was a load of old toss and he was safe long term.
The Fail then 'updated' the story to 'Fernandes gives Hughes dreaded vote of confidence - could be gone this weekend'.
They also continue to employ a man who stated his story about Diakite being a manic depressive was clearly true as he hadn't been sued....
Says it all really. | | | |

There isn't and I doubt there ever will be. Although a fair proportion of transfer gossip is absolute blloks, some stories are deliberately circulated because they serve a purpose. Whether it's for a club, player or agent. | | | |

This "understands" seems to have started at Sky Sports News. It's a cop-out.
For someone who has "failed to settle", Granero has been brilliant on the pitch and equally as good off it with interviews. Laughable. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Understands is the favoured word instead of an "insider" these days. |  |

Almost certainly handed to the Mail by a Betis source seeking to drum up some positive publicity for a failing club. | | | |

Doesn't everyone get the Mail's business model?
Publish as much bollox/controversy/shock copy as possible, sit back and wait for people to spread it virally, compute new number of hits, increase ad rates. Boring or true stuff just doesn't do it for them. |  |

Sign of the times I'm afraid.. lAZY JOURNALISUM .. Can't be bothered to find out facts anymore all fiction .. Most just troll forums for stories .. Maybe due to late show from arsenal last night all there stories became redundant and had to fill space quickly | | | |

the concern with Granero is not whether he's settled, it's how well he has settled - after the everton game my immediate thought was we'd struggle to hold on to him a'la faurlin last season if he keeps playing like that |  | | |

Stated editorial policy of the Mail to its hacks: "every story should make people afraid or angry."
This one ticks both boxes.
If everybody ignored the fcking rag it would go away. |  | | |

I love these types of stories - we buy a player for £9m and then send him on loan to his home country because he can't settle after a few months? That's going to help isn't it?
Or alternatively rather than writing off £9m players, you invest a bit of money in hiring people for the club whose job is to help them settle perhaps...

Queens Park Rangers midfielder Esteban Granero has said that he is "very happy" with life at the Premier League club.
The 25-year-old joined QPR from Spanish giants Real Madrid on a four-year contract in August and has scored one goal in seven Premier League appearances so far.
This is the first time that Granero is playing outside his home country of Spain and he insists that he is enjoying every moment of it.
...
"I have been here for two months and I am very happy at a personal and professional level," he told Marca. "I am also very happy with the team.
"This is another world and the change has injected me with more energy and enthusiasm.
"I want to experience new sensations. This is an experience that will help me grow in every way. I want to enjoy this city and also face the challenge that it poses." | |

Have you read 'Soccernomics'? It explores the idea of clubs employing relocation aides for new players, amongst other things, quite brilliantly. | | | |

There is the word IF in all these stories, as in IF someone else goes somewhere else etc etc.
On a much more positive note Messi is coming on a free in January as his wife likes Westfield Shopping Centre and he says he's done all he can in Barcelona and wants 'the new sensation' of losing week in week out in the Prem.
Come on Daily Fail, pick this up and run with it as gospel. |  |
