    Bet it's "No more questions about Pochettino's contract please!"

    "No club has been given permission to talk to any of our players."

    Yeah Shaw's definitely going.

    Reed: Reports that some players are negotiating transfers is misinformed. We want to improve the squad going forward and retain our current players.

    Again, why not just say "Luke Shaw will not be sold"?

    Absolutely no clear evidence of this. Yes he may be sold but he's not "definitely going" until Saints have accepted an offer for him.

    It's good that they are keeping us informed...Nicola would have left us in the dark. I think Kreuger thought he had cleared the air and settled our nerves, but hadn't reckoned on fan paranoia.

    That would be daft, you have to leave room for the possibility of him moving. It is a possibility in certain circumstances, the continued statement of: "we don't want to sell, don't need to sell, aren't looking to sell" is more honest and reliable.

    So then do what we did with Chamberlain and say we'll only sell him if we get a ridiculous offer?

    I guess they can't say that because if someone comes in with £100m or something, he will be sold. You can't legislate entirely for the actions of other clubs. But it's pretty clear they don't intend to sell him at least. I think what I said yesterday is even more pronounced now: if they do sell him after this, they had better get a seriously, seriously good deal for the club out of it.

    See this is all a matter of interpretation. In my mind that statement seems to indicate that we are much more open to a move than what has been said by Reed and Kruger.

    If it was I apologise to PTF but sometimes sarcasm is difficult to detect when you don't have psychic powers.

    No problem. Sorry for the lack of clarity.

    No biggie. :) The Kickstarter for my steam-driven online snarkasm detector goes up today.
