In Talks with Esteban Granero - From SSN

[stainrodisalegend]

god it annoys me when people say we have too many players for our starting 11
we need 22 quality players

You are right of course. Think its because as fans we all love working out what our perfect first 11 wd be - forgetting that in the vast majority of matches that team will not be available due to suspensions/ injuries/ international call ups etc. That said it does surprise me how many players we use these days. When I really got into football in the early eighties I seem to remember us playing pretty well the same side throughout a season and only really had a couple of extra players on the fringes. Yes I know there is more rotation now but that can't entirely explain it. Are players just a lot more injury prone now, even though tackling has become a lot softer?

Lets sign Kaka!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would be a mega coup if we got him. Would be our best player by far. Seen him quite fair few times. Lovely passer and scores a few.

5 years.

That's a big, big risk at the sort of wages we'll be offering to get him to come here.

I'm still taking all this with a massive pinch of salt tbf

Good read. Sounds a decent and clever bloke. That said, he might still fit in at Loftus Rd...

midfield player of the Real Madrid will fly tomorrow to London to pass the medical exam, to close a contract for five seasons and, subsequently, to be presented with the undershirt of his new one team.the reserve player did not count for Jose Mourinho and he wanted to enjoy more minutes in a competitive league. Therefore he has accepted the offering of Tony Fernandes, the Malayan owner and multimillionaire of the QPR that wants to become few years to the club in a similar company to the Manchester City. To Granary the project seduces him a lot but, above all, the fact that they have him assured that he will be the leader of the same one. July Caesar, of the Inter of Milan, is another of the acquisitions carried out.one of the more important keys in the transfer of Granary is that the footballer finished contract June 30, 2013 and that Mourinho had left him out of the assembly in the first parties of this season. Besides, this was one of the last opportunities for the Real Madrid to do box

QPR have signed Real Madrid's Esteban Granero on a five-year deal (via AS).

[jmelanie]

Sounds like the medical staff are going to be busy tomorrow.

[theblackmafia.]

Roque Santa to Malaga....thank God we didn't sign him.

[QPR_NW10]

Esteban Granero leave Real Madrid and traded up to the Premier League to play in the Queen's Park Rangers for five seasons. The midfielder will travel to England for a medical examination and closing his contract.

The Real Madrid youth product, the contract ending June 30, 2013 with the white club, will be one of the key pieces of draft Tony Fernandes , team leader of the English-based book that will attempt to create a new project to relaunch to the entity in future years and placed in a privileged position in the Premier League.
