The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 7th August 2019

[DCSPUR]

can't keep up with the news....it's like election day with early voting data coming in!
Hopefully our "ins" are of better quality than an overweight, NY golfing cheat!
Seriously though, loving all the ITK - what fun!

 

[Fredo]

There's an awful lot of noise around Dybala. I'd actually be quite surprised if we didn't get him now.

I just can't imagine now ending the window without signing anyone. It just doesn't seem like a possibility anymore, but lets see. I say BF, Sess and Dybala.

Rebrab in the GLC thread:

"not dead"

well thats good, wouldn't want to sign a dead man!

 

[Original # 10]

This is both unbelievably exciting and excruciatingly painful in equal measure....

There's an awful lot of noise around Dybala. I'd actually be quite surprised if we didn't get him now.

But virtually no ITK? I’m hoping the ITK have been told to keep quiet but normally one of them would have wind of this by now...

 

[wiggo24]

Hopefully BF is being set up if GLC fails, and we're going all in for Dybala regardless. Optimistic though, admittedly.

Friendly discussion VY. Would love us to get both, but with CE holding out for RM, and still on our books, can’t see both. Hence, the beauty had we been able to pull off Coutinho loan.

Goes against a lot of the ITK and paper talk we've had all summer.

Would be bitterly disappointing.

We need to ADD quality.

 

[cjsimba]

I’m really confused by what are the reasons for and against going for Coutinho. If Eriksen stays is he more or less likely to come? ?

So much great ITK I can’t keep up!

 

[austinfh]

So ITK potentially suggests we are still in for all four of them? Clearly things are changing very quickly - different info, different sources etc. Hopefully some clarity soon

 

[JKendall13]

Fernandes and GLC most fit the Spurs mould of transfers (barring the price tags).

Young and up and coming, Spurs are a significantly bigger team than where they are coming from, and we'll give them a raise but not ridiculous money, etc.

Loan in case Eriksen leaves after our window shuts.

But we would need to replace Eriksen next year if he went on a free? And no doubt prices go up again so makes no sense to wait another year.

 

[dagraham]

We're not going to sign Dybala and Lo Celso while Eriksen is still here tomorrow. We need to be certain he will be sold so we can cover the cost of the 2nd of the 2 signing. Hence why we might have to loan Coutinho instead.

I would rather Coutinho anyway, although it’s not ideal unless we have an option to buy. He’s PL proven which is very important imo.

 

[geordiespur]

Need to be careful we dont leave it too late on the deals we actually need to get done if Plan A doesnt work out

 

[Hotspur88]

In the Lake District walking up fuck off mountains so signal is poor and I can't keep up quick enough.

What is the current state of affairs? BF looking likely, Coutinho off but what about Dybala and Lo Celso?

Any update would be great. Can't see how all the pieces fit together.

None of it makes sense anymore but it’s entertaining...well sort of!

Bit like your walk mate ....up and down

 

[Mattspurs1982]

Loan in case Eriksen leaves after our window shuts.

How would this work? We can’t loan Coutinho once our window closes so we either need to take a punt and bring him while we shift CE before end of Aug or we don’t bring Coutinho in before our window closes and keep CE for the season?

 

[Dinghy]

well thats good, wouldn't want to sign a dead man!

Cue joke... Even dead he'd be better than...

 

[Mackan110]

Really hope we can get rid of eriksen. So tired I'd players that act like shit (sounds like it)

I really hope we get dybala

Thanks itk!
