    Marquinhos went for way too much money.

    Don't even tease me like that Daniella. I'm getting all hot and flustered just thinking about it.

    No the most annoying part is that they probably knew why he isn't in training yet but were purposefully misleading and inflammatory. And the fact at the end they posted a link saying that Wanyama is already missing Celtic as if he has done an interview since joining lamenting that he is here and wishing to be back, when in fact all it is his quotes when he joined us about it being hard leaving Celtic as the fans were good too him. Hurrah for tabloid journalism!

    I thought that i imagine he said "i will miss Celtic but cant wait for life in the Prem" or something on those lines and the media twist it to make a more interesting story!

    I'm rapidly beginning to believe that research isn't an integral part of journalism these days. If we got Banega I would have believed there was a slim chance that he was off, now Banega doesn't seem likely I really struggle to believe we would sell.

    It's frustrating. Every respectable journalist I've had the opportunity to meet has told me that it is. It seems in the tabloid industry, it's not.

    Two weeks ago, I had a meeting with a Reuters business writer, who is also an avid music writer. Likes his cricket too.

    He was telling me it's 15% writing style and 85% research and knowing your topics.

    Clearly not in this scenario.

    And in other walks of life you can say 15% inspiration and 85% perspiration. To be good you have to put the graft in.

    It frustrates me why saints fans feel its a conspiracy gaston hasn't joined training yet. He had extended leave due to Uruguay doing well in confeds cup, stop panicking everyone. Panic if he doesn't show up this weekend! Which he will

    I haven't seen any saints fans suggesting a conspiracy because he hasn't been training. I'd bet 90% of saints fans realise that he's been on extended leave because of Uruguay duty.

    Some people have posted links to stories about supposed interest in him, which are mostly rubbished.
