The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The Pinball Wizard on DEADLINE DAY!

[0-Tibsy-0]

Got to hand it to big Dan - creating this Bale storyline on deadline day to provide a nail biting Amazon doc episode. Might even rival the one where we lose to Colchester.

Superb...not sure it's right but top notch. You just glanced up from your times crossword , didn't you?

CBeebies sudoku actually

Levy thinks he may still be able even if things are less difficult in the summer.

Is this a cryptic. ‘Be able’. Kane and Abel? We get Bale and they get first dibs on Kane in a couple of years. ?

Barnett will likely have no desire to move Bale from Madrid. That salary is probably his meal ticket, hes not gonna want to cut it in half.

It's fine, don't worry, we'll make up the difference with his commission for the Willian Jose deal.

 

[TheWallYid]

Fwiw it's never been "on" but there are definitely talks ongoing.

As before the financials are super complicated.

This seems to be the story being run everywhere deal was possible but financials too difficult.

How DL doesn't know them before even wasting his time is beyond me. ven my nan knows the financial's are too high for spurs

I think we've established it probably means Bale now and Eze in summer

Maybe he doesn't know your Nan.

Glad the Bale stuff has been quashed this early on. All the focus should go back to our ineptitude at failing to secure a decent striker.

The depressing thing is at 11pm tonight half of SC will be convincing themselves that us bringing Llorente back was good business.

Which, in reality, means just Eze in summer.

 

[spursirish]

so if he is focusing on bale does that mean Giroud/jose not happening?

I think the reality is, bale just doesn't want to leave RM. if he did then this would move

Personally think the GOAT may be more referring to Eze as opposed to Bale. We know he's likely been at Hotspur Way (no, fuck off i wont use the acronym!) and its nailed on potentially for the summer barring any disasters, so being able to do it now even though it's easier in the summer lines up perfectly to me as being more about Eze. Who knows i suppose - just a thought

 

[Russ1201]

Hopefully working on a few deals and not just concentrating all our efforts in Bale!

Doubt it, just the usual superstar signing that never happens! End up with nothing and Levy be very happy 5 players out 1 player in. Typical Levy!

 

[Newbops]

Wow... just finished with work stuff and caught up on today’s happenings. The Bale move makes sense now that his dream move to China looks less enticing.

 

[sweyid]

Stranger things have happened and Bale back at Spurs would be amazing, so here's to hoping!

 

[Matthew]

so if he is focusing on bale does that mean Giroud/jose not happening?

its eerily quiet, i find i hard to believe anyone comes i today?

 

[Col_M]

FFS most of us can’t remember schoolboy Shakespeare. How are we expected to remember the words to the Bale song?

 

[Hoopspur]

Get AIA to personally sponsor him? Or Beavertown ?

 

[dk-yid]

I really really want Bale

Very fitting given your name...

 

[dk-yid]

But missed the second part

Sell in the summer?

Edit ; probably Eze i the summer.
