The Goat means we're looking for a CB who can dominate the opposition with exceptional technical ability, with great passing, creative mentality and excellent dribbling ability for a CB, similar to Jan Vertonghen (not physically dominate them, why do you think we were looking at Chiriches? ;) )

Mate, please stop writing definitively.

The Goat can mean whatever the heck he likes and he ain't telling either. You have A THEORY, it might have been true (isn't).
You keep reporting ITK back as fact too, so much so that someone asked you if you were ITK earlier. I wondered myself!

There's enough smoke and daggers around in this arena already and you'll be so much better off if you reign it in a bit.

Sorry to be a dick.

Oh God. So seeing as I have the title of "Dumbest Cryptic Guesser Ever", I am screwed on this. I'll have to wait until somebody mercy PM's me with the eventual result :(

If you don't want to play solve the cryptic you can just take it literally and be happy with that. For anyone up for it, there's a bit more info to extract :)

sorry mate, i was just trying to clear up a few things in the only way I know how, to make their eyes bleed with large blocks of text ;) I'll try keeping it in next time though

Hey Luke, don't take any notice......some people just can't read more than six words strung together! :)

Nice to see someone who takes a little time to add some insight and depth to the 'I reckon we will play Soldado up top with XYZ in a 5-2-1-1.5 formation' or 'my gran has a £5M release clause'. No need to apologise....

(Make sure you keep ITK related though ;) )

Domin-ate

Central defender called Dominic (or something with Domin in) and wears the number 8?

I can only assume it's a high profile target for us to not be allowed any clues or confirmation if we choose correctly.

It probably says everything about me that the 'piss on my face/acidic taste' rhyming couplet tickled me muchly.

Can I ask one thing. Is the bit about being sensitive genuine, or part of the cryptic? I'm sure its genuine, but just want to check!

sorry mate, I just get really excited when I feel strongly about what I'm writing :) Don't worry about being a dick, if you felt the need to I was probably doing something wrong! :) I'll try to be less definitive in my conclusions ;)

I was just getting too confident as a few of my posts were getting positive reactions, I needed grounding to be fair, so thanks! keeps me down to earth!

I like this site, it's friendly and warm!

Re: LLM's Capoue info

Was it SS57 or Joey55 who was always adamant that Capoue was the real star when he came on the scene with Sissokko? Either way I respect both of them equally and thus based on nothing but their positive outlook some 4 years ago, would welcome him with open arms (y)

But actually having actually seen him play, I would also welcome his with open arms.

No I did not just listen to my Journey playlist

Yes I did :unsure:

Definitely Beece. Always rated Capoue much higher than Sissouko.

The cryptic is just the one line. It's also literal (i.e. it's about a defender).
