It was a cheeky half question really, mate. Won't be jumping out of a window like some on here if we don't get one. Think our future is awesome and well up for the ride either way. Good times ahead.

Do you remember the 'Ask Dan Ashcroft' summer, JJ?!
That was question time on acid and speed...

I don't know if this counts as ITK (although with a fair slice of speculation on my behalf) but from the horse's mouth as it were?
After the game Tony Pulis was very clear in stating that starting with two up top was a mistake and he had learned his lesson this evening. I know, as I'm sure we imagine for us, Berahino could play as a wing forward and would still fit into that 4-5-1 but surely with a club record signing in the stands, it is likely that Rondon would be the one up front for West Brom. That might prompt Berahino's thinking regarding a transfer if he is moved out of a preferred position.
Insert optimistic rating here
Would be beautiful in the Berahino thread; given it has naff all to do with ITK.

Sounds like us signing a cm / dim is still very much a maybe. Concerning.
I prefer to be bringing a striker down from Birmingham while sending a striker up that way at the same time, but thats just meWhy who was on the Panel of question time?The one with Rob Beckett was quite funny
Hopefully one will come down from Birmingham this week
Thanks for sharing

I wouldn't jump out a window, but I am certainly of the impression without either a player of greater quality (esp defensively and passing/vision) in CM or a player with greater experience in there it could hold up that progress of what is an exciting set up in parts.

Why do I get the feeling that there's more to this JJ?

So close!
Although Pulis actually lives six houses up the road from us here. I will kick a ball over the fence and see what I can pick up from him when I go round to get it.

I think Toby and Dier could see us through this season and it also could be a blessing in disguise and prompt poch to think again about Veljkovic as a possibility.

right lets talk about ITK whats happening boys (& girls)?
We're working on bringing in some players that would improve the team, but at this stage it's impossible to say with any certainty whether we'll finalise deals...even if we are quite hopeful. This isn't 'Football Manager', and it's not like buying a pint of milk.
I reckon I've got this ITK lark down to a cabbage-flavoured tee
In all seriousness I feel quite relaxed about this window. It feels like we've spread our net wide in order to get the pick of the fish. Two or three good signings and suddenly our squad looks pretty decent.

Need to get off the Toby as DM kick...its as likely to happen as Vertonghen playing DM

The lack of CM is indeed a scary thought. Naivety at it's finest to just rely on what we've got.

If we don't sing a CM I think it's very likely to happen at some point.
I think Berahino if he comes will be a deadline day job
Levy will sit tight and see if any of the big 4 go for him and if they don't then really squeeze the WBA chairman's balls deadline day

If we don't sign one (which is beyond ridiculous and just frustrates me everytime i think of it sorry) then I'd play Toby there over Dier. Especially in the big games. My mate is a huge Utd fan and said there were some rumblings amoungst their lot and ITK that him and Bentaleb were being targeted in the game to capitalise on their inexperience and lack of concentration... It's fair to say it worked. That will keep happening IMO. Major weakness. At least Toby is a very calming presence on the ball and reads the game well.

Any chance you could explain the plot of True Detective to me JJ, @Spurger King has tried several times but he keeps getting the fucking names mixed and just ends up confusing me even more.
