Hughes refuses to concede Diarra defeat

Really interesting quotes from Hughes on Diarra in Thursday's The Sun.
Diarra is a player I like. He’s a good player but, at the moment, he’s still a Portsmouth one. Things may develop for him. But the window isn’t open at this moment so we’ll just wait and see what happens. You can make of that what you want.
I haven't seen Hughes comment in public like this on a potential signing since Ronaldinho, which was slightly different as it was an ongoing and public project when Hughes took over. Diarra's move to Real Madrid looks pretty much done so to see something as ambiguous, as 'wait and see' as this is a surprise. I guess we'll find out in time.
