The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 30th August 2012

well so far nothing looks concrete, more contradicting info if anything, we are certainly still in need of more players, at least another attacker/goal scorer goal keeper capable of sweeping and a creative player otherwise for me we haven't improved our squad, maybe I'm just greedy
also must be about time some of the deadwood started floating downstream.

Can't see us signing 2 or 3 top players tomorrow, and no particular striker seems to be talked about with a reasonable fee. Can see tears tomorrow.

Weirdly I'm not to disappointed with no more strikers signed. Lloris and Mout plus what we got will be a great window.

 

[paulcumpstone]

yeah you might be right but JJ did seem to think 3 players and at the time didnt think a gk was one, so far we only signed 1.

A scene from somewhere just north of here...

Hugo Lloris walks down the corridor and sees Andy Carroll coming the other way.

"Not on your fucking nelly!" and hi-tails it straight back out the door and makes a mad dash for the Eurostar

 

[Original # 10]

Can I have a striker please?

POTL in the "AVB press conference" thread on COYS

HVB.

POTL

Harry Villas Boas, meaning he bullshitted most of the stuff in the press conference.

Lloris and Mouts and I'll be ecstatic, but what happens if Ade is out for a lengthy spell....we are considerably weaker whatever way you look at it.

 

[like2eatpie]

Getting pretty wet and windy in London now, hope poor old BEN hasn't got a brolly in that tree...........he could end up doing a Mary Poppins before the action starts, let alone the garbled post we'd get. Not good at the best of times

Just smashed the server record again. Anyone receiving any server errors?

Got logged out for no reason, wasn't idle and was actually typing a message. Only happened once about 5mins ago but all ok apart from that.

 

[Mr Pink]

So Remy is a possibility? He wouldn't be my choice but he does kill two birds with one stone - can play as the wide forward and cover Ade.

If we get in Lloris, Mouts and Remy, on top of the business already done, it will still be a stunning window. Wanting back up for Ade and another wide forward on top of Lloris and Moutinho all tomorrow is probably looking a tad unrealistic now

 

[montylynch]

Aaahh, The highs and lows, i don't think i've ever experienced a window like this........Lunchtime was a high, now coupled with the horrible weather outside, is a right downer.

I just hope Levy doesn't get pelters when/if we end up not getting our supposed targets. I know that's probably a wish to far but i'd dread this place if it does happen. We'll all be back to booing Jenas come saturday when he comes on as sub.

That's a point, we've been so preoccupied with in comings we seem to have forgotten about ousting the deadwood. Wonder what's going on there then?

Sorry, just a joke

 

[GetSpurredOn]

Lloris, Moutihno, Llorente....f##king A-mazing.
Lloris, Moutinho, Remy / Lloris, M'vila, Llorente.... Good job.
Lloris, Moutinho/M'vila, no striker.... Oh sh!t.

 

[Living Legend Colm G]

So good, they named him twice?

 

[wishkah]

With a goalkeeper surely if they have hands we're good to go?

Brad's would have my good to see,

Nurse "My god, our test show you have a heart and liver of a 38 year old!"
Brad "aweeesome!!!"

How is signing more good players a worse job?

 

[bobzmuda]

Can I have a striker please?

Seems the with signing of Defoe that a pute striker this window is a no goer. Still think we'll get Damiao in January and possibly ship off Defoe then.

 

[Adam456]

For those thinking about 'wide cover' do you not think that Dembele was signed with an eye on that issue - that he could play CM in general but cover either wing if necessary ?

I would play him there in a heartbeat if Bale or Lennon were injured (assuming we sign Moutinho or other top CM and assuming GDS doesn't suddenly show amazing form)
