The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 28th August 2012

[thinktank]

To me, it looks like he's moving at a different speed than anyone else. And you can tell by the way defenders approach him they are apprehensive and not really sure what he's going to do next. I'm so excited to see how he does with a squad full of talent.

Pace, power and the ball on a string. Nothing defenders hate more....

You'll have to excuse my seeming stupidity here, as I haven't been able to follow this at all. And I don't see confo in the RO, but are there strong ITK saying Dembele has accepted our offer and Lloris is done? Thanks. I know how these posts can be.....but 85 pages would take the rest of my night

Now that is a footballer possessed. The guy is always in perpetual motion. Super exited by this signing.

Im sure someone will help you find the nearest door

Also sad to hear that Kabouls looks likely to have a spell on the sidelines. He was immense last year and was really looking forward to him and Vertonghen forming a strong partnership at the centre of our defence. Good news that Les stays though, really comes across as a nice guy and always gives 110%..............get well soon Younees and DL get out there and get us our striker

JJ says its done and so does POTl....re Dembele
Lloris looks likely and Wiilian supposedly coming along nicely.
Daws looks like staying as Kaboul injured (dont know how serious)

Dembele has been confirmed by Fulhams OS itself so it's more or less done it seems. The rest it seems is ITK rumours

Thanks

so ... Will Dembele go in the 2 with Sandro or in in the 3 with Bale and Willian (effectively replacing Rafa)?

Probably next to Sandro given his tackling ability and his vision moving through midfield and into attack. That'd be my guess.

---------- Dembele ------ Sandro -----------
-------------------- Siggy --------------------
---Willian --------------------- Bale ---------
------------------- Ade -----------------------

 

[midge]

Has Dembele signed? Or we just have our bid accepted and now waiting to agree personal terms?

 

[Schitzophonic]

Bid accepted, player has done part of a medical tonight. Could see it being announced early tomorrow. I'd assume with the medical going ahead that terms have been agreed already, yes.

 

[Rethink]

Kranjcar 5m
Corluka 5m
Pienaar 4m
Bassong 3m
Modric 33m
VdV 9m
(plus Gomes, Jenas, Bentley etc ) 10-12m

Total 71m


Sig 8m
Verts 9m
Dmebele 15m
Lloris 10m
Willian 15m

Total 57m

thats 14m ish in Profit ... (and thats assuming we only get 9 Vdv )


Surely we will buy a Striker

Very rarely is a medical performed prior to personal terms being agreed. I hope this isn't one of those rare (I'm not even sure if I've heard of it happening) cases.

next to Sandro, ball stuck to his feet à la Modric but a big, stronger version.

Have them locked away in my heart. Childhood icons and a cool-ass kids show for its time.

Mine too....

We were also estimated to be at about a 25m profit last season after transfers.

I think VDV will stay but if we get a striker in then Defoe out for £10m plus we have a 20m kitty so bring on Falcao...

 

[Rethink]

Im hoping for




------------Lloris-------------
Walker- Verts--Kaboul --BAE
-----Sandro---Dembele------
Willian ------VdV---------Bale
-----------Llorente-------------

Bench: Caulker, Gallas, Dawson, Parker, Lennon, Adebayor, Siggurdson, Livermore,


Assuming that Dembele, Willian and Lloris are all very close and achieveble. One big spunk out on Llorente, and I believe you are looking at a team that would compete with the sugar daddies

I see a slight flaw in your list. We will still need to trade 6 players.
