    The Daily ITK Discussion thread January 26th 2012

    It still comes down to the Fair Play rules, we have to sell before we can buy as otherwise we run the risk of falling foul to them. Gio and Pav gone equals around £50-60k in wages freed up We also cannot afford to have dead money on the books i.e. people sat in the stands who are not in the 25...

    The Daily ITK Discussion thread January 16th 2012

    Unfortunately it comes down to wages. Most of the names being mentioned on here are on over £100k a week - our wage cap is around £80k. Add this to the 50% tax bracket in this country and most "big name" strikers won't want to come to us. Seeing as most of the other managers in the...

    If Corluka is a No how about.....

    The main problem with our defence is that we only ever seem to have our defenders defending. I was watching Newcastle last night and don't think I ever saw Nicky Butt in the opposing teams' box, where-as how often are both Jenas and Modric attacking together. It was the same last year with...

    The Jermaine Jenas Hijack Thread

    This is part of the problem, he is consistently good but very rarely great. Whilst I by no means hate JJ I do not think he would be a regular starter in any of the top 4 teams. Fabregas, Gerrard, Scholes and even (god I can't believe I'm saying this) Lampard can be great and are great more than...

    Vedran Ćorluka (Transfer Confirmed)

    It doesn't appear to any of these It seems that after the papers were signed Citeh decided to have a change of heart. The rumour is that Hughes found out about it and was not a happy bunny and so they pulled the plug. Once you've signed on the dotted line..... The good thing is though we...

    Carlos Cueller - transferred to the Villa revolution

    £5-6million and we've got nothing to loose but Rangers will want £10 -12m then i'm not so sure. They won't sell him in any rate, I work in glasgow and the general concencus is that if they sold him there would be a massive uproar. Doubt very much that Rangers' owners are that suicidal.

    Future Exits?

    It all comes down to the £20M you get for being in the champions league. 2 or 3 years of this would be great. There is a gulf in this country between the teams in the CL and the teams that aren't. It brings in money, it attracts good players but it doesn't stop them leaving. We are not far...
