"What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value. The idea that I trust my eyes more than the stats, I just don't buy that because I've seen magicians pull rabbits out of hats and I know I just know that rabbit's not in there." - Billy Beane

100% mate. If, big if, we stay up this year and go on to have a more comfortable season next year and aren't involved in a relegation dog fight I really do think Granero will come into his own. Greta player, not necessarily a "fighter" though.You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.Comment

Yea fair point that, I was meana come across as having a pop at ya. I agree, annoys me when players don't celebrate. Especially given our current situation, they should be over the moon!You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.Comment

Yup, this.Yep. Prime example being those people writing off Junior "Toilet". I've said it time after time, I don't think we should judge too much on the first half of this season as it was just a total shambles all round. Players that are very good players just weren't performing for whatever reason. Granero will go on to be a key player for us, as Hoilett will & is starting to show. They're both top players.
Here are some other players the WATRB mob would have got rid of after a disappointing first season in the Premier League:
Luke Modric
Robin Van Persie
Luis Suarez
Didier Drogba
I'm sure there are lots more besides. Its very common for a player coming from another country to take a season to adjust to the Premier League.
Unfortunately for us, and Granero, that adjustment time has come in a very poor side, with awful team spirit and no real playing style. I think if Swansea had signed him, we would be raving about him right now. And if we had signed De Guzman, Ki or Michu? Awful player, get rid, useless tusser....Comment
