TF tweet regarding Samba

[QPRDave]

I think you've all misunderstood TF, what he actually said was family issues,.....it's Random man!!! Tony's gone hippee man

[Ric-Roc]

Hopefully back?!

Need him back. No point having good players if they can't play. Hope its soon. Taarabt is also on ramadan that hasn't stopped him performing. Hope SD sorts his business out very soon.

Think there is more significance to the family problems bit than Ramadan, hopefully back for the Swansea game but only if his mind is on the game, if not maybe better to give him more time.

Family issues could be quite pressing and we should wish Diakite all the best and give him all the time and support

There's been a military coup in Mali with radical Islamists wreaking havoc
The country is in chaos and I'd imagine Samba wants to ensure his families welfare or get them out

We've a decent 18 to 20 man squad and we'll be fine

Another one of TF tweets was.... Just got of the phone with mark. Lots to do. But awesome news on ali faurlin. Like signing a 15 million pound player.

Thanks for that info. The coup started in March which could explain his "virus" at the end of the season. It is possible the club do not want everybody to know his whereabouts.

Based on Joe Allen's pricing, make that £25 million
