SOUNDBITE: Mark Hughes, Stoke City manager
"Don't bother. He's done exceptionally well. We knew it would take a little bit of time for him to get to grips with the Premier League. He's done that and he's playing well. He's a talented football player and I think he's proving that in the Premier League. I've said before, the reason he's with us is is because at the stage of his career that he was at that, given the disappointments that he had - having gone out on loan and been sent out on loan by Barcelona, the disappointments that he had in terms of his game time and maybe how he was treated in certain situations... I think he's come here and he's really embraced what we're doing and he's enjoying the environment that we can give him. So I think he's very happy. We have no intention of encouraging any interest in him. He's a big part of what we want to do, moving forward, so it's a non-story from my point of view."
