The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 23rd August 2013

If he still hasn't made up his mind yet, what is he thinking about?

I've read he is very professional maybe he wants the challenge of taking us to the top, he comes to us he will be a fulcrum a focus, loved and valued.

At Chelsea he will be just 1 of many.

Or maybe Sky are just playing with us.

Willian still to choose!

....his locker at Chelski.

I would die if Madrid are all set to announce Bale and have every media and fan at the Bernabeu. Then we announce a Bale contract extension and Perez throws a shit fit while being booed out of a job.

I could dream, right?

They would end up signing someone else called Bale so they can give reason for selling Bale number 11 shirts.

lol Not biting.

As far as I'm concerned he's Chelsea's. Not sure I'd want him now anyway - bad taste in mouth. And we would have to deal with his xxxx of an agent in the future pushing him for another move.

 

[YOLO]

need to get the ratings back, it was so much easier to wade through the bullshit.

Gards may just be repeating what was said on SSN

He was retweeting a sky news reporter who is stood outside his hotel waiting for him! lol

No he said very good news on the horizon, have you not just learnt from the Willian saga? Pinch of salt and jumping the gun etc etc.

But I'm a spurs fan on SC, it's what we do

Hope he picks terrys, that'll be an interesting confrontation.

I think the Willian news is slightly overshadowing the fact that, according to ITK, we've all but signed ERIK LAMELA!!! COYS

Hardly surprising that people are being cautious about that sort of thing.

Best not to get excited until it's official imo.

Which given recent events counts for precisely fuck all right now.

 

[torbaytottenham]

Or I suppose you could try and win that debate by going to a ridiculous extreme that you know neither of us are suggesting?

Yeah why not stick a pot of jam up front, that would be a good idea!

At least we would get the ball to stick up front then..sorry, I'll get my coat

There is absolutely no way Mourinho would mock us in a press conference if he wasn't 100% sure it was done. He's just too smart for that.

Mourinho joked about the "danger" of doing a medical first, but then admitted that Chelsea wouldn't be able to complete a deal until they had put Willian through a medical.

So, essentially Chelsea weren't even as far down the line this afternoon as we had got 24 hours earlier!

IMO he was "confirming" Willian's choice based on the word of the agent/player - probably the same word we had from them this time yesterday.

I've read he is very professional

Lol

So when Willian to Chelsea get announced. Does that mean Sky sports news are reputable again?

It's just that when this all kicked off about his time yesterday a lot of the ITK's said it was BS.

Guess SSN were pretty spot on 24 hours ago.

Will never believe anything spurs related until a player is holding the spurs shirt.

We do seem like mugs in my eyes. Especially from what Mourinho said. It was like he was giving us a lesson in how to sign a player, almost seemed bemused Chelski were able to do the deal so late on. The transfer should have been subject to medical. I think Mourinho said something along the lines of 'the player is usually signed on completion of the medical'. He passed the medical, this should've been wrapped up immediately. I realise we don't know all the ins and outs though, and I'm not saying this is gospel. Will be interested to hear from some of our ITKs when the dust settles a bit. Hope it wasn't Levy style penny pinching that slowed it down, post-medical. I was scared ARSEnal were going to move for him (offering CL football and higher wages), I really didn't see Chelski coming out of the blue (excuse the non-deliberate pun).
