Grealish

Does that mean the news/ITK we may or may not hear about today, is referring to someone other than Grealish

My first thought when Herc and Breezer posted was that it wasn’t Greelish they were referring to - no great secret around him, no need to be brave? I’m thinking Tony M, but that’s just me!

Surely it is - there’s been absolutely no smoke about anyone else apart from maybe Barrios.

Unless it’s a bid accepted for someone. Time running out today though...

 

[Majick]

It seems unlikely that we'd make a blockbuster announcement like Martial this week. Monday onwards, sure - depending on how England do tomorrow and maybe at the weekend I guess! But it seems like we want the news cycle to ourselves, and unveiling a big name against England in the semi-final (or...) would marginalise the coverage.

This tone is profoundly unsettling.

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

If it's not announced today there's the reason for the hesitancy to be 'brave'. You can talk yourselves into another mystery name all you like. It's Grealish.

As in, Ra Ra Rasputin, England's got a goal machine?

It's Plea because A&C is being peculiarly "Nice" again.

I have to go now I'm afraid. But I shall return to help you with any problems just as soon as I can.

 

[LexingtonSpurs]

This is how I picture A&C

People actually thought it was some other player?Lol

 

[MarkyP]

maybe we were going to announce something today re Grealish like the ITK's hinted at.... but decided to hold off in fear of overshadowing the Ronaldo to Juve move...?

 

[Japhet]

Has somebody kidnapped A&C and replaced him with a polite and well mannered imposter?

It's like he's become a Stepford Wife...

It does seem like the Spurs media team hold off on announcements and save them for periods of time when they can create the most amount of noise. With the World Cup semis' and final this week, plus other transfer news i.e Ronaldo and other prem clubs announcing their latest signings. Surely any news won't be officially announced until next week - whether that is signings, contracts or sponsorships...

 

[King of Otters]

A&C is definitely pulling of those 'lower expectations in advance of the stupendously amazing reveal' ruses.

What a scamp.

 

[SpartanSpur]

Well Herc posted today suggesting the fee is not yet agreed as Grealish is not forcing it. The player is seemingly in Portugal with Villa. Didn't really align with the talk last night of developments that we might hear about today.

Most including myself assumed it was clearly Grealish at the time but the above did make me wonder...
