    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 20th August 2021

    I live near Metz in France and a few guys I know here who have contacts with Metz are saying Pape Sarr is all but signed by us for 10 Mill euros. They all rave about him though, personally I have never watched Metz so can't comment. Take with a huge pinch of salt as usual.

    Harry Kane

    Jeez, how much must HK be regretting having a family member as his agent, surely he has to fire him now? CK has proper 'dropped the ball' on this one, so bad that no other agent, who would obviously get a cut of any transfer they managed to secure, want to touch it. Would love and hate to be a...

    Player Watch: Pierre-Emile Højbjerg

    Best ball recoverer in the world, sounds like something we need every time Sissoko shoots... new level of ball boy skills required for that. Most expensive ball boy transfer in world football. Seriously though, the kind of player we have needed for a while, good signing.

    Adrien Rabiot

    Reposting something I posted in the summer window and still believe now. Yes there is a degree of saltiness in the PSG fans post that Luka put up but that vast majority of what he says is true. 'When we tried to sign him the first time round it was because he threw his toys out the pram and...

    Adrien Rabiot

    From the page or so of this I read, they are basically saying that he (Rabiot) thinks he knows best what his position is. Basically numerous coaches believe he has most of the attributes to be a Makelele type midfield destroyer and try to play him there but he himself doesn't want to play that...

    New Stadium Details And Discussions

    Actually not only one guy, there have been a fair few studies in the US and Europe about it and it comes from the fact that a number of companies have been making the pellets from used tyres. The rubber used in these isn't as stricly governed as to what can be in them as the rubber used in...

    Wilmar Barrios

    Watching YouTube clips on this guy and to be honest the number of time he dives in to challenges is crazy many of them could be classed as two footed by refs in the Prem. Luckily for him he seems to time the tackles well. The Prem, however, is a completely different standard and can see him...

    Tottenham Hotspur vs Rochdale - Match Thread

    Going back for the Moura penalty decision after allowing them a counter attack, then getting the decision wrong, when he was blatantly body checked when going through was pretty poor too.

    Tottenham Hotspur vs Rochdale - Match Thread

    He stopped at least one stride away from the ball and then took that stride before hitting the penalty, so technically he hadn't finished his run up when he stopped. Sorry for double quote I stuttered in my run up to posting, yellow card to me and freekick to you tiger...

    Michy Batshuayi

    Basically, the article says he is under contract until 2020. That he is the best player at OM according to Vincent Labrune and that at 22 he has huge potential that needs to be worked on (perfected). This is shown by his performance against PSG (don't know if he was good or bad I didn't see the...

    Spurs Scouting Thread

    Completely agree with you about both Castro and Werner to be honest. It's clear Werner has some talent but needs a team around him to make him shine I reckon, but also agree that he's not what we need, although I do think he's less raw than N'Jie but has a little less pace. The flick from...

    Spurs Scouting Thread

    I was at this game at the weekend and mentioned to the guys I was with that he was one to watch in the Stuttgart side. They all agreed with me by the end of the game that he was quality. Stuttgart are awful though, Werner literally gets no support, playing up top on his own. He ended up taking...

    Franco Baldini

    Oh and Kondogbia from Monaco, that guy is an absolute beast, however Monaco would want ridiculous money hence not really including him as realistic.
