The social media team will probably have been the last ones to see the kit, everyone else saw it weeks ago, hardly needed a naff itk announcement on social media


Yeah, 'cos "everyone" has seen it...

And commercial revenue from all those that haven't seen it is next to worthless. :facepalm:

Have to say this is one of the quiet windows for itk that I can remember for quite a while.
It's July almost and yet we don't look close on anything at least on the surface, maybe we will all get surprised soon.:D

Pretty sure the last two windows at least have been very quiet compared to a few years ago. Just how it is now.

I expect it to kick up a notch now once the confederations and U21s have ended and more players can also focus on transfers

I kind of wonder how long until we'll get one of the tabloids going with a "Poch unhappy at lack of transfer backing" story?

Apart from Everton has anyone in the league made more than two signings?

There's not been a lot of real activity. Lots of rumours and hearsay but little significance.

Reports said Mendy was close to joining City just hours after Silva joined - five weeks later and that's not happened. I'd given up on Douglas Costa about two weeks ago when reports said Juventus were close to a deal - just checked and there's not been much movement since.....

Every window we say one deal will kick everything off. For instance some say Everton's spending spree will be funded by the sale of Lukaku and/or Barkley. I'm not sure about that. Sunderland got £100m prize money for finishing bottom.

PL clubs don't need to sell. If they do it's on their terms. Us with Walker, Arsenal with Sanchez, Everton as mentioned. I don't believe PL clubs can bully another as in the past. Abroad is different but most foreign clubs will see better value for money elsewhere.

Bournemouth have apparently signed Ake and Defoe, rumoured to be bringing more in.

we've had a lack of ITK in the past but this time something just feels bleak about any prospects, I don't know what it is and I'm hope i'm wrong

Remember JJ said the club is calm so I'd chill for now. Let's shelve any feelings of impending doom for at least a fortnight or so.

DL runs a tight ship! You don't build a successfull footbal club, or any other business by tipping your hand. Take some PMS meds and chill the f*ck out! Kids, pah! :whistle:
