I am naturally frustrated by the lack of substance to any rumours at the moment - but this is not untypical of the way we deal in the markets and so I am not unduly concerned.
I am sure activity is happening in background, as TP says regarding Evans, if there is to be discussions, they'll do it between the clubs and not in public, I respect that.
It is for that very reason that I remain confident that players are identified (more that we have listed) and negotiations are very established. As with Stoke who want Berahino, they know they have to wait for us to find a replacement before we let the sale complete - personally I expect us to have a new striker and to say goodbye to the spoiled child.
