The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The Wheels on the Bus

[mw828]

Since Skybet is not ITK, I'll go ahead and not believe it.

So based on the latest information, one of the anchors of our transfer strategy is basically to replace Poch's Argentinians with Jose's Portuguese. Sounds like a well thought out strategy.

So you’re saying we tracked a plane from Spain to London just for him to go back

Still one of the best nights ever on this forum.

If this Lo Celso info is true I’m not surprised unfortunately.

Mourinho is a dinosaur and has no idea about keeping good players.

Lo Celso will just join De Bruyne, Salah etc as another elite player he didn’t give a chance too.

What a waste.

All those saying we should make GLC permanent, so we can sell him for a profit in the summer - please remember we are Spurs and don’t have a good record of selling unwanted players.

 

[13VanDerBale13]

So many issues to resolve with our squad, not taking the option to buy GLC will just add to the growing number of areas we need to invest in ??‍

I've been reluctant to post on the main forum(have behind the scenes)because others have said differently, but I've heard it on three separate occasions now.

JM not keen on GLC and would rather the loan cancelled and the money was spent elsewhere.

Boooooooooo

 

[worcestersauce]

If the ITK on GLC is right we can lose more money by cancelling the loan and not taking up the option than if we complete and then sell. Isn't that the case? Either way it's becoming clear we need to take some bold decisions by the sound of it.

Insert thinkaboutit Eddie Murphy meme...

Pretty sure JJ said Gio is rated just a matter of weeks ago. Take a pinch of salt and stop pissing your panties.

 

[gavspur]

I thought we were told that we’d be making his (GLC) move permanent in this window?

Odd stuff coming out now.. Although, if we stick with two CM’s, and not move to a three, it’s difficult to see where we fit these AM’s in to the side, given that JM likes wide players. Not forgetting we ruled every other teams’ midfield when we had Dembele and Wanyama at their peak. I wouldn’t be against NDombele and someone like Doucoure/Soumare//Diawara next to him.
Shame about GLC if true tho.

He hardly plays him.

TBF I think JJ said he was rated by the club. Hope we keep him anyhow.

We think a lot of him as a player at the club and we will give him the platform he requires to succeed.
He is well regarded by all including Jose and definitely not looking to give back.
Hope this helps clear up our thinking as it stands today.

including Jose

I fear GLC ending up being another De Bruyne/Salah/etc. victim of JM. if this ends up being the case.

JM has great form for this

 

[KILLA_SIN]

Is anyone really surprised about GLC, JM couldn't spot DE Bruyne and he is an animal now. He loves a boring midfield

 

[tiger666]

Come on guys don't get this locked by going on about KDB and Salah. We're finally getting some ITK.

Good thinking...I'm off to the Mourinho thread.

 

[stonebrow]

So JJ is hearing differently to Herc and Trix...is that the jist of it?

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Wow, the number of people who obviously haven't read the rules seems to have gone off the chart. Business has been brisk today.

I'm only a couple away from hitting my quota for the month, come on guys, be a pal..........
