Here's another ITK discussion thread. I'm not sure we actually need one any more
Who: Ali Z
When: 26 July
Where: Coys
We will bring in 3 maybe 4 before the end of the window.

"I do hope we can get some in. I am a little bit worried we won't be able to get anyone"
To which Ali said;
So am I but been told we just waiting for the madness to die down, as i been told replacement rb , a ch if wimmer goes, Barkley and 1 more attacking player prob right sided.
Good to see ITK re-emerging- and very much focused on the areas we need reinforcing. A&C's midday dump must have been of Ben-Hur proportions considering he was absent for four hours. Sudocrem might be required
These 3-4 signings seem to be just what we need, and I'd be happy with that.
RB - Pereira/Toljan or similar
AM - Barkley
CB - Mawson if Wimmer goes
All linked and I'd be happy with those.
Not sure about us being in the market for a right sided attacker though, maybe his opinion based on us originally targeting Zaha? Lemar was a target and is more of a LM. Son, Lamela and Barkley (if he comes in) can play RM, and in a 3-4-2-1 Eriksen plays there.
I'm thinking we'll be looking at either a pacey/tricky player than can play on either wing or a Striker/Wide Forward hybrid (similar to Josh King). I have a feeling the extra attacker is the Italy link from JJ.
koeman has said today that Barkley is definitely leaving so you'd of thought that'll weaken their negotiating on the price presumably
