I'm more confident that he'll stay than I am that he'll go at this stage.
I don't agree with what he's done, but I do understand it. Once he didn't go on the tour, going to Soceidad to train makes sense to get him away from local press, issues with fans etc.
If he doesn't report back for training next week then I think the clubs hand will be forced, but I fully expect he'll be back at the back end of next week when the other lads are back from Asia.
As time ticks on, the one thing I'm most worried about, is that if we can't get another couple of strikers in, we'll end up accepting a bid that's £90m plus Nunez or something.
