Álex Granell's 2014/15 season in the Liga Adelante with Girona FC
• If there only one man stood out for Girona FC last season, it was Álex Granell. The Catalan, in what was his first ever Liga Adelante campaign, carved out a spot in the centre of the park of Pablo Machín's team. He provided the team with good short passes, started moves, showed off his skill and chipping in with some memorable goals. His performances earned him a spot in the Team of the Month on a number of occasions.
• So good were his performances, that Granell did not miss a single game during the Liga Adelante season just gone. He played 42 matches in the league and two promotion playoff encounters, clocking up a total of 3,762 minutes with the Catalan outfit. He notched up five goals over the course of the season, three of which were thunderbolts from outside the box.
• Álex Granell led Girona in terms of stats in almost every department during the 2014/15 season. He was the team's top passer with 1,832, took the third highest number of shots (62) behind Fran Sandaza and Jaime Mata, and had the fifth best goals tally, with five.
