    Someone on Wiki has taken it upon themselves to say Ramirez is now a Saints player...

    I asked Marcotti who owns this 30%. His reply was....

    Some have reported it's Penarol, others that it's a fund controlled by his agent, Betancourt

    Bologna coach Pioli on Gastón Ramírez: "I've spoken with him and at this moment he's confused. It's a delicate affair."

    The guy who tweeted that (@HusseinMarhoon) says:

    "Bologna just want to milk it as much as they can." & "He's gone. Bologna just want more cash by issuing these statements.

    Bloody agents. I wonder how difficult it would be for a footballer to go without one. I imagine it would be like a band trying to be successful without the backing of a label.

    Not particularly bothered about the agent thing.

    Cortese was said to be out in Italy all week with his representative and then over here in England with the representative, Mr Betancourt.

    I'm sure it will all be fine.

    Some Pompey fans make me laugh, asking if Saints could get a points deduction for Ramirez being 30% owned by a 3rd party. <laugh>

    The PFA offer all the functions of an agent to players in the UK, and will probably end up representing them in a dispute. I have a slightly worrying suspicion that as soon as a young player becomes professional he has to fight off agents from all angles promising to make him into the next whoever. But maybe that's a different topic.

    Saints fans love Cortese, but what would you think others would think? We like it when someone stands up for us, so suspect the Bologna fans are enjoying this.

    I've not got a problem with him standing up for Bologna just he comes across arrogant. "did not satisfy me" (not the club HIM) "british club" seems a bit snide as well.

    For those of you knocking it when people are judging players from Fifa...

    From Liverpools official website announcing the signing of Assaidi with "10 facts about Ousmane Assaidi"
