The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 12th January

It is highly unlikely to be Sanchez purely because of wages. I think he was, once upon a time, offered £300k a week by Arsenal and turned it down. But God, I would love it to be just for the Arse Fan TV dramatics.

Just checked and Sanchez is on £130,000 a week.

Is there a HowMuchArePremiershipPlayersReallyPaid.co.uk website then?

No one really knows.

I never said he was on more. I said he was offered more than double by the scum and turned it down. He obviously wants a decent pay rise and a good chance of trophies and I am not convinced he would see us as a club that could offer both compared to the likes of Shitty.

I seem to have missed the ITK on Sanchez and Draxler.

Being surrounded by Australians always improves the brain.

[Ionman34]

Nobody mentioned Draxler who was in London for the NFL?

Because there’s no ITK on him?

Sanchez.. Really? One of the most stupid things I've heard for a while. Sorry for ot.

Mahrez is such an interesting player. Comes from a Leicester side who are perennially in the lower part of the league in average possession % and he's surrounded by pretty marginal talent overall. Throw him into any of the Top 6 sides where possession can swing by quite a bit and obviously the talent is better, and it could be a situation where he takes another step up. More opportunities on the ball where he is at his best, better players around him so it's not all on him to create something out of nothing and he'd be at a place where you don't think the attitude would be put into question since he knows he's a better player than Leicester.

Questionable attitude and for all his skill not sure his work rate would impress poch enough to want to spend 40-50m that’s the least Leicester would entertain any bid

Doesn’t always work. We have had players like Sighy come from lesser teams where the set up has been around them but struggled with us as they have to fit into an existing system. It’s iften easier to be a big cog in a small wheel than the other way around

Why are people discussing Sanchez and Draxler in the ITK discussion thread?

Did @Archibald&Crooks die overnight and I didn't get the memo?

He's been very hard working this season according to a few Leicester fans I've heard from and most doubts about his desire to press have mostly gone.

You weren't on the list.

 

[Beni]

Gelson Martins, Pulisic or Malcom are exactly the type of players we need when teams sit deep and Park the bus

 

[Japhet]

Nope, can't find the Mahrez ITK either.

 

[Dillspur]

Has there been itk on any specific players? From the ITK we have had and from what I heard a couple of nights ago, Mahrez seems to fit more than most
