gary3009 Posted 15 June, 2015 Share Posted 15 June, 2015 Couldn't see this anywhere so thought id post it http://www.soka25east.com/revealed-victor-wanyama-to-stay-put-at-southampton/ The speculations over a possible Victor Wanyama move away from Arsenal have been quashed and the matter put to rest Soka25east.com can reveal. After long and arduous speculations that had linked Wanyama to a move to Arsenal,the Kenyan skipper has decided he will play the 2015/2016 season at Southampton putting paid to the hopes of many Arsenal fans who had hoped for that the strong,agile and no nonsense midfielder would join them. A close source close to the player who sort anonymity intimated to Soka25east.com “Wanyama will not be leaving Southampton at all he is happy on how coach Ronald Koeman has integrated him to the team making him playing a key role while the club has provided a good home for him.He is looking at the long term and yes he would one day like to move but you do not turn your back at a team which has stood by you.Wanyama feels there is time for everything”he said Southampton lost many of their key players in the 2013/2014 season including manager Pochettino however Ronald Koeman has been silently speaking to the players to dissuade them from leaving a call that has been honoured by many players who are happy with him at the helm. Wanyama helped inspire Kenya to a brave 1-1 draw away to Congo in an Africa Cup of Nations 2017 qualifer on Sunday. Victor Wanyama has been a key cog in the Southampton defence playing a spoilers role in the traditional formation where class is laced with quality.

The9 Posted 15 June, 2015 Share Posted 15 June, 2015 "Silently speaking to the players" is one hell of a skill. I'm getting "horse whisperer" type images here, with Koeman taming the wild Wanyama and leading him to drink. Water. From a pond. This is all kinds of wrong.

Graffito Posted 15 June, 2015 Share Posted 15 June, 2015 Is this nonsense from the "no nonsense" player or from a "close source close to the player"? I think it's from a close source close to player or even from a not close source nowhere near the player. I won't believe this nonsense until I hear this the nonsense from the no nonsense player himself so we can put to bed the "long and arduos speculations" about our key cog who is class laced with quality.

Redslo Posted 22 June, 2015 Share Posted 22 June, 2015 http://www.smartkenya.co.uk/wanyama-staying-in-southampton-club/ four year contract! Since we haven't heard about his signing a new contract, I assume he is referring to the length of his original contract which is four year, two of which are gone.

Redslo Posted 22 June, 2015 Share Posted 22 June, 2015 Whatever your views or beliefs, that's unnecessary. And hypo could have been referring to Vics charity support, or something not mentioned in his comment. Which is why I referenced the two statements I did in bold. Clearly, being a supporter of many charities could make someone a top man. As for my comment being unnecessary, it depends what you mean by that. However, I have chosen not to allow the casual and common assumption that religiousness=good to go unchallenged because it is such a harmful and destructive assumption in the modern world.

Matthew Le God Posted 22 June, 2015 Share Posted 22 June, 2015 (edited) Don't be silly, but I do struggle to see how being an "avid church goer" makes someone a "top man". Being a "supporter of many charities" is fair enough, but you don't need to be religious to do that.

Redslo Posted 22 June, 2015 Share Posted 22 June, 2015 Where are the "gratuitous pro religious comments" on this thread? There was only one which I responded to. Unless the comments made by the people with whom I am debating can be considered pro-religious. A close question in my opinion but right now I am leaning towards not. My reference to "comments" plural was a general statement of my personal policy, not a claim that there had been multiple pro-religious comments on this particular thread. I will not that because pro-religion is viewed as the default state (especially in the USA, although your country does have an official religion) many people making pro-religious comments do not even realize that they are doing that--as in appearing to equate going to church with being a good person. Just for the record, I am content to stop debating this on this thread. I am not content to admit that I should not have responded to the first comment. I love Jeebus, I do. Did that help? I am not sure that qualifies as pro-religious but it does help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.S. Pretty sure Victor would describe himself as having a faith rather than being religious but lets' not start another debate.. as Far as I'm concerned he's a Saint... and that's why I'll be supporting him...
