    Now what?

    The 2016 CHAN is different from 2015 CAN and won't include any players playing in non-African clubs, so no advantage for Spurs. The Cup of Nations is biennial, except for 2012/13 when it was switched to odd years.

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 1st September 2015 DEADLINE DAY!

    I wonder if people had reacted the same to the Berahino deal if Peace hadn't smeared every movement all over the news. Few people seem all that upset about Wanyama despite expectations that we most definitely would sign a DM. Disappointing either way, but onwards I guess. Looking forward to...

    Surprise is an anagram of Spurs Ire. James McCarthy plays for Republic of Ireland....................... Nah, probably not.

    PLAYER WATCH: Paulinho

    Going to China at 26 is absurd, he clearly has zero faith in his own ability. Then again, there can't be a single club in Europe willing to pay anywhere close to 10m for him at this point.

    EDIT: I've had a kitten for two days and with this post he already has better ratings than me. Sigh.

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread -The SOS EDITION! 1st July 2014

    Lagging behind who? United are panicked after their shit-tastic season, Liveprool are spending Suarez-money to soften the blow, and Chelsea are being Chelsea. We can't afford the players they buy, so we have to spend more time finding the right fit. Last year was an anomaly, and anyone expecting...

    Caulker will probably never be our first choice, but if he could be convinced to come back he'd be a more than decent backup. Kaboul and Dawson are both unlikely to play a big role in the future, so we need some additional muscle to rotate with. That said, I doubt he'd be willing to come back...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The 19 edition 26th May 2014

    I would love FdB, but it's incredibly optimistic to say that he isn't a huge risk. He's never managed in the PL, and has a less than impressive record in Europa, not to mention he favors a a possession football style similar to AVB. Maybe he's a fantastic manager, or maybe he's just a big fish...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The 19 edition 26th May 2014

    There's nothing wrong with failing as long as you show signs of improving or atleast understanding the problem. The common link between our recent managers has been complete cluelessness when things don't work out. They've all been decent managers, but lacking that extra bit of smarts and...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The eyebrow edition 23rd May 2014

    Either he knows he was rejected and is trying to distance himself to save face, or Levy has given him strict orders to not comment until he's announced as new manager. The former sounds a lot more likely to be honest.

    Louis Van Gaal appointed Man Utd manager.

    Don't think they'll dare try another long term gamble. They need results, more than one season without CL would be devastating, and for that they need a sure thing which leaves very few options. Personally I wouldn't mourn LVG too much if it meant we could get someone like Pochettino. I envy...

    Sherwood has gone!

    To be honest I don't think it would've made a difference even if we had Guardiola managing, we would've still been smashed. City score goals for fun, and they don't let up, whereas we have a shaky defense and midfield lacking key players. We were always going to lose, we just lost by more since...

    selling tickets next season through Stub Hub

    The prices are high because the market can bear it. Demand massively outstrips supply and it's not going to change until we get a new stadium, and even then it might stay almost as expensive considering we're a popular club located in London. It's also worth keeping in mind that going with...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread THE S.O.S EDITION 14th January 2014

    I think it's a bit naive to think this is all up to Sherwood, as if he's driving the team bus around Europe trying to flog the team. Firstly, we have a transfer committee, explicitly to prevent coaches from throwing away money. Sherwood is and has been a large part of that committe, but he's...

    The case for Tim Sherwood

    Some people have absolutely no humour.
