Loan with option to buy aswell for 14mil, fuckers.
Strange, seeing as our itk suggests that Arsenal couldn't agree the loan of Sahin with the option to buy as Real Madrid did not want an option to buy clause inserted. That, and Sahin's alleged preference is Arsenal. Something not adding up here.

Can we perhaps stop with the tedious addition of full stops in Willian's name?

Any further ITK out there regarding Malaga players? Tim confirmed as scouting them, and bargains to be had. Someone other than Isco?

Just cos you're the only one posting such stuff doesn't mean you're the only one with an understanding / interest in it. I'm using CBT right now. Probably best for a new thread tho - as it's not really ITK but what you perceive. :)

But he never said he did. He's posted summink many of us are interested in and ok maybe he should man up a bit and just carry on but the criticisms are not helping anyone. Unless they make you feel better?

I find it even more strange that we are not concluding this deal rather than Liverpool. We need a CM, we have a good bargaining tool with RM and it's barely even a gamble if we're not paying too much of the wage and can get rid after a year.

what i perceive - yes. not an academic - yes.
but let's say, replace me with a real life "carl lightman" or "ria torres", and i bet the itk is far more accurate than 80% of the stuff we read about on here.
and since we are encouraged to take itk with a pinch of salt anyway, i just thought that this could be an interesting slant on itk discussion.

anyway, i just had a quick look and found avb's interview after the liverpool friendly in the usa, talking about charlie's adam's tackle on bale and the previous one against la galaxy where he talked about bale's rafa's and kyle's injuries... and i think i can say quite definitively now...

that everything avb said about willian and leandro in the aforementioned interview is bull.

thanks and please carry on with this stuff...it's better than alot of the shite posted in here...

Sum i'm watching...:cautious:

We have been after Dembele for a year and a half and nearly had him last January. Levy want's him big time and believes we can secure him on the final day as Fulham have to sell as he is in the last year of his contract. Man Utd wan't him and are our only rivals his agents have been touting him around to Champion league clubs with no obvious takers. We will leave it to last minute and try and get him in before deadline. Man Utd don't really do last minute so we should get him, the whole VDV situation is new on me and when i broached this with someone close to VDV he just laughed and said that there is nothing in that (apparently Dembele doesnt like VDV). The other interesting situation is Adam Johnson he is interested in coming and is willing to relocate, Liverpool can't afford unless they sell Agger or Carroll and he really doesn't wan't to go to a non European playing team Man City are playing silly buggers though and would rather he went to Sunderland/Stoke possibly on loan they don't really want to strengthen us further so again could rumble on to the last day.

With regards to the keeper situation we will bring someone in before the close biggest bet in Stekelenberg and he's friends with Jan and Raffa expect Cuddicini to Watford.

On hold up and contention for starting place on Saturday
- genuine ignorance at hold up
- contention is pr speak, he doesnt think Dawson will feature if he has a choice

I wanted to rate this informative and optimistic. I liked reading all your stuff. I didn't see the interview, and even if you're wrong it's an interesting perspective. Most of which sounds very plausible. We wouldn't be accepting bids if we remotely wanted him to stay.\\

Likewise JJ may have been told "get Hudd fit blah blah" but anyone knows this is spin. You don't send a player off for a whole year (to Stoke no less) just to get him fit. When Modric broke his leg the last thing we'd have done is send him to Stoke to recover for a season.

Safest place for him though, at least he doesn't have to play against the dirty bastards.

This is getting but boring, but Hudd is going to Stoke for 6 months due to a recall option so there goes that whole year bollocks

Modric wasnt injured for nearly 2 years with same injury so you cant compare at all really

this makes sense actually.

Still, never heard of this guy before, is he new or something? I don't think there are many ITKs on THTV, I rarely see any in the RO.

These seem very realistic. Not sure how I feel about them to be honest, would be a big step down from Lloris and moutinho. Hopefully they are back up options, still good players though.

Not trying to knock the info here, but I think it a bit strange that Watford would sign Cudicini since they've already got Almunia in.

Also modric was always going to get straight back into the first team even if not 100%. Hudd can't get fully fit sitting on the bench
