The Daily ITK Discussion Thread 24th July

[Nezz]

Never going to get to sleep now!! Thanks for the hope Herc!

 

[KevinW]

Simply a guess here - Herc saying "playing poker on three fronts to get what you want".

Front #1 - United with Toby and Martial. Has United finally buckled in regards to Martial leaving and will now possible do the Toby + cash swap?

Front #2 - We have not heard of any interest from anyone in DeLigt since May/June when he supposedly being quoted by Ajax near 70 mill. Have Ajax buckled and brought their price down closer to 50 mill, which according to ITK back in June (I think) is a level Spurs would go in at.

Front #3 - Grealish is done as Villa buckled?

Again this would be the ideal, totally optimistic interpretation.

Even better, assume Grealish is a given and the three are Martial/DeLigt/Kovavcic. But there again the contents of that wine bottle seem to have reduced more than I remember

Not sure if it's the heat, but I'm completely baffled by the ITK this summer. Absolutely no idea what to expect.

 

[Ron Burgundy]

Fasten your seatbelts for fireworks of, if it happens, a good kind. Too much plausible to say more. I would be kind of brave, but see what happens when I attempt to be. Call it playing poker to get what you want in 3 fronts. If it happens then I will salute the bald eagle.

Oh for fuck’s sake - can someone just freeze me (like Cartman in the South Park episode) until this over?

I can not believe how much time I’ve wasted on the square root of fuck all this transfer window

Obviously thanks for the info!

My wife and children don’t recognise me because of this window

Thanks @Hercules

Love it when you're able to share a bit of potential positive ITK, really lifts the mood in here.

It's weird isn't it. Looks awful and rudderless from the outside, but ITK info does make it seem like we are aiming big behind the scenes, without actually divulging any real juicy info. Clock is ticking though...

Tick tock we may be in for a shock. Fingers crossed it's a good one.

It's also quite interesting that Poch from some reports today is apparently quite relaxed.

More like we are delaying JG signing as that will be our one signing - our marquee signing!

Fuck sake, gaz- you just pissed all over the picnic table

We don't want any of that down to earth, fact based, objective reasoning around here - this is an SC transfer window

 

[LegitimatelyKaned]

Herc please... you can't keep doing this to us!! Pessimism then dragging us all back in

 

[Dirtysanchez6]

Please be martial please be martial please be martial ....Please don’t ban me AC ??

 

[Finchyid]

It was all supposed to happen mon-weds so i have had my seat belt on.....my guess is it will still be on next weds

 

[yiddo]

Are they sitting on those Alli and Eriksen deals the ITKs mentioned so that if (when) everything falls through in two weeks they can produce some positive news?

Maybe these deals haven’t happened yet either....

Either that or they're both off to Madrid with Lloris and Trippier.

Where's the "Oh Please God let it come to pass!" Emoticon when you need it?

 

[chinaman]

He said bald eagle, mate. Literally told you the player without naming him or breaking out chocolate

The bald eagle swoops and snatches 3 chickens.

 

[yankspurs]
