Well there is probably no ITK because we aren't doing much right now. Everybody knows it's the worst time to strike a deal. Even with Defoe leaving at the end of February, it would be quite silly to spend money just to cover two months. Could that burn us? Sure. But the cost to benefit based on a potential injury just aren't worth it in January.

And I seriously doubt anybody is leaving at the moment as the summer will be a shit show of activity with people jumping ship if we don't make UCL and people coming aboard if we do.

we are not doing anything because TS will not be in charge for pre-season. The new manager my not like his signings. Thats why the moves away are all loans. It's like we have Uncle Junior as our boss.

Berba and Konopyanka would be brilliant imo. Really rate Kono, he's the only player I've ever seen consistently outpace Walker....

Happy for Lewis to go to Fulham - get prem experience where he is guaranteed to start. Prove some doubters wrong (perhaps even myself) and perhaps come back when we have a new manager in the summer that fancies him.

In fairness to Fulham, they have had shit luck. They are a better side than their league position would suggest. Holtby could very well be the spark that pushes them on.

Hope Nani is just a back up option in case we miss out on Konoplyanka. And by back up i mean as cover for Townsend.

Well there were reports that Levy was unhappy with AVB before this season started yet we added 7 players and it's Levy who want's a DoF so that we don't chop and change squads as we change managers (not that a DoF has stopped that previously)

I actually think Sherwood is right in saying if he makes top 4 and earns a CL place he'll keep his job, so it's premature to think of any change of manager just yet, but either way surely (rightly or wrongly) it's the transfer committee that makes the decisions on players now, so I don't think Tim's opinion or any new coach's opinion necessarily will mean we buy or sell anyone

Fulham just have far too many old players, the balance is wrong and a young energetic player like Holtby will boost their midfield engine even if it's arguably too little to late

Can someone tell me who is supposed to be on the "committee"? Baldini? Levy? Who else?
