The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

Miguel Albiol will stay at Real Murcia as he has renegociated his contract and accepted a lower deal. After Gerona he was one of the ones who said they would stay to put right what went wrong, and he has been true to his word.

Jose Luis Capdevila has departed Real Murcia for Xerez. Shame as he would really have made a difference in segunda B, but we could not afford his 400,000 euro wages anymore. Capdevila, although much criticised by sections of the crowd, was a tricky player who always tried and never took the easy option.....hence the criticism (for me undeserved) when it didn't always come off. Typical example of the Real Madrid/Barsa supporters we suffer demanding too much of Real Murcia.

Dani Aquino has a fracture of a metatarsal on his left foot, picked up in training yesterday, so he will be out for some time. He has had very poor luck with injuries over the last 2 years. When he made his debut and was in Spain's U-19's he looked like he had a bright future and many top clubs were sniffing around. Undoubtedly talented, the injuries and loss of form mean he is in danger of not becoming the player we expected. This latest setback almost certainly means he will stay with Real Murcia this season. My best wishes for a swift recovery Dani.
