    Naw, that's not even the most annoying part for me.

    The most annoying thing is that we still have to continue to root for the guy. We have to hope he does fantastically for Juventus and performs for them the way he should have for us. And on top of that, if indeed Osvaldo's wildest dreams come true and he bangs in a bunch of goals for them then Juventus will be the geniuses who signed him at a bargain even though they paid what we did. And we will be portrayed as the fools who didn't know how to handle Osvaldo or the small time club not suitable for getting the best out of players of Osvaldo's stature.

    Oh boy, I've been in France now for a couple of days and someone else is arguing with PTF. Leave it out. That's my job :)

    Someone on SaintsWeb who is pretty reliable and doesn't always claim to be in the loop on this stuff says that there was another training ground scrap/tussle/row back in December, when Osvaldo was then said to be 'injured'. The guy says that something happened and at the time Cortese et al decided to cover it with the injury story.

    Would explain perhaps why the Saints squad reacted so strongly to this latest incident.

    He can f*** right off - he`s done nothing for us, apart from one goal aginst ManC, and he certainly hasn`t fitted into our ethic. We`ve been patient with him, but no more. He`s an embarassment to the the club, and it almost makes me want England to beat Italy at the WC.

    My support will rise exponentially the more Saints players are there - Lambert, Lallana, Shaw, Clyne, Rodriguez - surely nobody could grudge any of them a place, if they season fineshes strongly.

    Blackmore says the Osvaldo deal is 400k for the loan and 14m to make it perm.

    Meh. Not happy about that at all. Basically indicates to me that Juventus is looking at this like a no-risk signing that fell in their laps. He will probably just end up on their bench until the end of the season and come back and be our headache again.

    Again- not criticizing Saints. Just... frustrating is all. Sometimes addition by subtraction is your only option. Maybe having to fight to get into the side will humble him, he gets his head straight while he is there, still manages to makes the World Cup squad and scores a couple and we can still get most of our money back.

    @SimonPeach: Asked if Osvaldo could play for #SaintsFC again after such an incident, Poch said: "Your question answers itself, meaning no. It’s clear"

    He who dares wins--but sometimes you lose--I think we have probably drawn?

    I can't see it I'm afraid. 1 in 1 out has turned into 0 in 3 out.
