    yes, the experience between Udinese and Granada, was a good one and I am sure this could be easily extended to Watford, for benefit of all of us.

    Torje looks a fantastic player, a tricky winger who can play on either flank and scores goals as well. Can we have him after his loan finishes please? :biggrin:

    Wednesday morning. 8am. Still not been taken over. Our summer transfer targets so far have joined Brighton, Swindon and Palace.

    Let's hope today is THE day :)

    Pozzo is never in a harry, he takes his time and works behind the courtains, very few public statements, and also those statements are not particularly reliable, often they tend to set you on the wrong track. :biggrin: dont' worry.
    as for your transfer targets, forget them with Pozzo, always expect unknowned player which will reveal great surprises (rarely a flop even if it happens sometime....) or expect players he has already under contract and are parked somewhere...

    @Udinese: Dani Benitez to Watford and Di Natale to Granada, its the logical thing, isn't it?

    Hello,
    Simply not, the best thing to have happened to our club is our president Quique Pina, he made all those relations with Pozzo family and is one of the best football knowledge men.

    I hope that you will be in BPL next year with a good squad...
    By the way, good forum, glad to see you are so grateful, we are to grateful too with Udinese.

    Thank you for your reply so good to get one without any swearing in it
    i`m still worried about havin nearly a new team every season and they seem very harsh on managers but time will tell
    i just hope that they hurry up coz the club is in limbo about signing new players we could be left with nothing if they pull out

    Finaly Dani Benitez will stay in Granada (He won't be able to play since November because his sanction). If i hear something about any Watford futurible player, where should i say it?

    Maybe Geijo (24 goals on Segunda last year) will try.

    Thanks again mate. :) We'll all be keeping our fingers crossed and I'm sure there will be more of us watching La Liga than ever before getting behind Granada CF.

    Just wish Pozzo.snr can get Bassini out of the way and complete this holy trinity. :biggrin:

    By the way Nestor Rossi managed your club for a while. Great player. Just before the unfortunate slide.

    :biggrin: amusing!
    Di Natale? forget it! :)
    he won't move from Udine, he has already refused to go to Napoli and to Juve (he's the only one who succeeded in imposing his wish on Pozzo! an idle!)... he like's staying in our little town, and then he hardly speaks italian, a new language though similar won't do for him...

    :D
    yes he is italian but he was born in napoli, he speaks italian with a very strong dialect accent, actually he basically speaks napolitan. Not easy to understand for everybody... then he is kind of bushfull, he doesn't like talking in public, and he doesn't like to much fuss around him. One of the reasons he likes it in Udine, is that he's free to go around with the family without beeing bothered by anyone.
    Languages are not for him, he was given another gift a wonderful gift a great talent, cleverness and magic feet. That's all that counts for me. In my heart he has a place next to Zico!

    I used to support Mallorca in Spain, because they bought Gerry Armstrong. But now I'm only supporting Granada.

    To the Granada fans on here:

    Since the Pozzo's took over, how many players have you signed that are not associated with Udinese and are not loans for other clubs the Pozzo's are friendly with? Just interested to see whether we will have the freedom to carry on signing players from other teams in England or whether the Pozzo's will decide who we sign.

    Why would you ever want the name of a Roman senator on the back of your shirt? If you do though, surely you'd buy a Roma shirt?

    I'm spending all day in London tomorrow, so on this 'day of days', the only access I will have to the net will be on my ****ty blackberry.

    Jokes aside, that would be hilarious if someone got that on the back of their shirt.

    How about controversial characters from history? Chairman Mao?
