The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 23rd August 2013

[Speedy]

This is all shaping up to look like the mother of all transfer deadline days haha

All needs to be concluded before the first game, its beyond belief really

 

[Joshua shepherd]

Isn't today supposedly the deadline for the Bale deal? Maybe he will stay

 

[$hoguN]

To be perfectly honest I am more concerned about updates on the Lamela deal than Willian. We have pushed Willian along as far as possible now, so it is just a matter of all parties agreeing and sending off the paper work. There appears to still be alot more to do in regards to Lamela though and I would love to know where we currently stand.

To be honest, I never thought we'd be this close to signing Willian and Lamela on top of Soldado, Paulinho, Capoue etc but I think Ozil is probably one step too far.

Mata is a categoric 'no fucking chance' mind.

exactly my thought, people suggesting willian, Lamela and others for bale a month ago were told them players wouldn't come, now I'm not saying Ozil will come but stranger things have happened.

Well, what goes up, must come down, and down, and down. Everyone looks ill at the end of the night. All lost the power of speech, desperately avoiding eye contact. Your new soulmate that you've been talking codshit to for the past five hours about the new attacking line, or the who is a better player, is now a complete stranger. You can't even look him in the eye. All you've got in common now is paranoia. It's coming through the walls, man.
The children of ITK aren't safe anymore. We're no longer together as one, but seperate mental patients that yearn to be ejected out of this poisoned atmosphere to a warm bed and a friendly therapist. Reality's on her way. Where am I? What have I do? Was it worth it? And by the way, what happened again? All we have to look forward to is unconsciousness, but you can never sleep.

Felt like ripping off a monologue from a good film because it's how I felt after coming off here last night.

But hey, today is a new day. Anything can happen in ITK and it usually does.

Been on the prowl on a couple of other forums and nothing is really popping up yet, POTL has not been seen on COYS since 16:19 yesterday when he denied the SSN report

Where did this deadline come from?

 

[Greenspur]

I have no idea

Just teasing the tiger.

Is 'teasing the tiger' yet another one of your sexual deviencies?

 

[raf18]

if willian comes in then he chose us over money and if he goes to Chelsea then he was only after money and wasn't right for us

lamela will hopefully sign soon and vlad is back on

there is other targets out there we can go for and I'm sure Franco and Daniel would have discussed other targets with AVB

keep the faith

To be honest, signing Lamela and Vlad would wrap up a great window. However, having to watch Willian entertain for Cheslea and keep thinking he should have been ours will haunt me. I've gotten over Oscar but Willian is such a fans favourite type of player. Regular skills, pace, creativity and and a great personality.

 

[golfspurs]

We have an exceptional speedy wingers/wild man.

We also have a wold class defender.

We just got an overwhelming domination midfielder.

And we got a top notch clinical striker.

Only on thing left is the player who can lead this team and conquer the pitch under his feet!!

Who do you guys think could do that?

COYS!!!

Horward Webb!!!!

[Rout-Ledge]

Nowhere. There is no deadline.

We have to be realistic, as much as i dislike chelsea, there is more reasons to choose chelsea over us, champs league, title contenders and like you say a lot more money

Chelsea have not done too bad out of players that only go for the money.

Where did this deadline come from?

Someone posted a few days ago, pretty sure they were ITK, never made the RO though.

 

[felmani26]

Where did this deadline come from?

The only deadline that matters is September 2nd.

 

[$hoguN]

Where did this deadline come from?

It was in a bit of info that was posted the other day. I can't remember by who though, else I would dig it out for you.

 

[Qualsonic]

I'd be unhappy to lose Willian, but happy with Lamela and Pjanic.

 

[Gedson100]

Where is today's relentless onslaught of ITK?
I'm back from holiday now, but it doesn't mean things have to stop!

Admittedly, you get a good view of the CL from the bench.

The wages at Spurs are not going to be exactly paltry.

It's a challenge to the player to get us in the CL. And it's a team who obviously really want you rather than one that thinks 'oh why not' at the last minute.

 

[B.F.G]

The only deadline that matters is September 2nd.

think deadline in Spain is 31st August

Same with Halilovic although I wonder if that Bulgarian is plan B in that scenario.
