Weather is driving ‘The Beast’ to despair

ARSENAL loanee Julio Baptista finds life in England so miserable he admits he is prepared to give his Real Madrid career another try.

Brazil international Baptista has described northern teams in England as “terrible” and claims the weather is “driving me to despair” while lamenting his inability to adapt to the pace of the Premiership.

Baptista initially struggled at Arsenal after joining in a loan swap deal which saw Jose Antonio Reyes going the other way.
