The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 4 August 2011

At least we are still being linked to the big strikers by the ITK's rather than picking up signs that we are giving up hope and moving on to the less prestigious players. I'm sure the money and the will to do a deal is there from Levy, all we need is a little bit of his negotiating magic to start working and we'll be fine.

By the way, can I just say thanks to all the mods, ITK's, and rumour rangers for making this such an excellent part of SC.

i agree , fun reading them but at end of day the one big transfer we had in our history not one of them got wind of it in modric. again it was same with van der vaart until it was late in day and transfer complete when someone heard of it.

if anything any player mentioned here will prob not sign and will be someone completely different. the ones we hear about i think are ones where dont have any serious competition for signature

TBH I think I'd rather we went after some more realistic targets earlier on in the window got them in early and let them settle in the squad than wait to the last couple of weeks and risk ending up with nothing again.

The fact we can't shift hardly anyone from our squad has more than likely had an effect on this

In terms of moving people on it does seem to be gathering pace, looks like Hutton and Keane will be out the door before long. There is an offer for Jenas on the table according to ITK. Lots of talk in media and ITK about Dos Santos, Defoe and Crouch, really think we will see some go real soon and then thats when I think the fun will really begin![/quo

Yeah but I feel ITK's becoming less and less credible (IMO) so I'll wait til somethings official before I believe it

So could COYS ban Peanut and POTL for ITK bashing as they're having a bit of a bitch fight with each other...? :think: ;-)

Yeah but imagaine how dull this transfer window would have been without them!

I'm quite interested to see if any of the info from The Journo comes off, something about him just seems quite credible IMO, obviously no history in the log to check with so only time will tell but I think he might surprise us.

edit - im not quoting myself little error in there somewhere!

I'm hoping that guy's got the Villa stuff right anyway.. Let 'em take our cast offs! (as long as we can get better players in... which I'm not convinced of, but still...)

Ade is waiting on RM, which puts DL in a quandary the more it drags on.
BTW, what happened to all the German interest?
