The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 7th July

[Breezer]

I've been told Barkley is all agreed, personal terms and fee with Everton. However his head has been turned by all the new signings at Everton and being an Everton lad he is still in 2 minds whether to stay or go.

Don't be shocked to see Bale back at Spurs next season, lets just say the ball is in our court and if Levy wanted to make a statement this would be the deal to show intent.

Southampton have offered £21M for Wimmer.

Janssen has been asked by the club to stay but is becoming frustrated as he knows the club are still actively looking for another striker/attacker.

City may still be interested in Walker but no interest has been shown since Pep watched Walker play for England. Walker hasn't asked to leave but has asked Levy for more money. Surprisingly Levy has agreed but Poch has said NO WAY! He's starting to see Walker as a bad apple and doesn't want him paid anymore than he's currently earning.

Lastly when Poch signed his last contract Levy put a £40m buyout clause. He has a gentleman's agreement with Levy if Madird come calling once his contract has expired he will be off, if not he'll sign another contract with Spurs.

i've not seen A&C quite this upset about ITK and peoples reaction to it..........especially those that question it

I can't help think that as A&C knows the details and source etc, and that he seems angry, that we should presume there is something to this

Any its Friday.............a night for alcohol, fun and columbia's finest

There is little we can do either way so don't let it bring you down!

I question a man's intelligence when they have a gentleman's agreement with Levy.

 

[BringBack_leGin]

Just seen the goat info, I'm sure it's in good faith and without agenda but, as I would with positive news, keep faith with what I observe myself first and foremost, and that amounts to consistent improvement on and off the pitch for over a decade now with only one major blip (and even that coincided with our lady cup win).

 

[Sandro30]

Nice one @Breezer. Bale would certainly be interesting

if that happened, i dont think SC could take it!

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

Every day, every single day must I suffer 14 posts of "the window is only 24 hours old ffs" and "didn't we finish 2nd ffs"' and "it's called building a stadium ffs". FFS!

 

[delpiero]

Well... Breezer's update will keep this thread ticking along nicely for a few days, loads of info, thanks.

 

[VoteMe4Prez]

Bring me Bale NOW

 

[Lilbaz]

Modri had one and left. Levy obviously stretched it out and pissed him off but he was sold. Berba the same.

Gentlemans agreement but levy's terms.

 

[sammyj]

Bring the boyo back and we win the league

 

[kaz Hirai]

Ball is in our court for bale.
So Madrid willing to sell which seems likely as they've spotted something newer and more shiny in Monaco
And bale himself wouldn't mind returning as he said when he left.

Unfortunately zero chance of paying the fee and the wages. Nice thought though!

Did Poch say no buyout clause recently, suppose could be a flat lie .

Disappointed in walker if true, just signed a deal. But why would pep be turned off by one England game. Everyone plays shit for England. It's like a singularity that sucks the talent from u

Good news on janssen, obviously rated then, or we can't get anyone better

 

[danielneeds]

Hmm. Levy paying Bale £300k a week...

I'd like to see it, I really would.

 

[LexingtonSpurs]

Bale

Unless they still owe us a shitload of the transfer which could reduce any fee but yeah seems extremely unlikely would be absolutely amazing though.

 

[Krule]

The best way to describe my feelings at the moment is like waiting for both the postman and the binmen to arrive at the same. The former promises the possibility of good news and perhaps a better day ahead whilst the latter signifies the removal and dumping of unwanted waste from my home. Bearing in mind all that is going on at the club I think the arrival of the wheelie bin collectors would have priority. How I long to primarily see Sissoko on his way out accompanied then by a couple of others who don't quite fit (leave you to guess who) and that the fees have been put into the plus column of the transfer account book.
Then it's time to do some shopping online and await for some bargain buys to be delivered to the doorstep by the man from the Royal Mail.
What I don't want to do is spend wasted days looking through a transfer 'window' only to realise that absolutely no-one is calling to visit and the smell of rotting waste grows stronger each passing hour. Some sort of action is definitely required soon.

Now THAT is what you call ITK!

Thanks for passing that on Breezer. Very interesting stuff. Whether any of it comes off or not is of course open to debate but there's no doubt that bringing Bale back would be nothing short of mind blowing.

Just imagine it, the football world would explode.

 

[Hercules]

May I state very clearly indeed that I believe absolutely everything posted by the various ITK's today. Let me show you some contradictions:

Goat 20m offered for Barkley
Trix disagrees
Breezer says all agreed, now upto the player. Here is my take; Goat is right. Trix received information to have him believe Barkley was not as stated. He is right from who informed him, and no doubt to question his source's integrity. Breezer comes along with some new that all is agreed, just down to the player.

Is it possible we should of been more decisive earlier on with Barkley, before they started to splash the cash? How things change or develop. Is there any coincidence there? Well done Goat, Trix, and now Breezer.

 

[thebenjamin]

Bale earns £350K a week after tax at Real Madrid. So £700K a week gross or thereabouts. According to reports, before he signed that deal, Man Utd offered him more than that to leave Real and join them. So yes, I would be very surprised to see him return to Spurs.
