If he comes to England odds on him settling are against him, odds on him being an hit are against him. Not many Spaniards come here and top of my head can't think of one who's settled and done well, most of the players who come here and do well are from countries like Sweden, Norway and the likes although a few french players have come over the last few years and done well.
