The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 10th August 2015

[Jospur]

Positive news from a number of ITKs on incomings.

Does anyone have info on how much we've spent so far and how much we've received from player sales? The other point would be how much we can expect from the sales of players such as Ade, Lennon and Soldado?

It would be interesting to see how we stand regarding these potential incomings cash-wise bearing in mind the Club's penchant for a net spend.

To me "the end is Njie" sounds negative, like the end of our interest in Njie or something like that. Is it meant to mean the end of our long wait?

I hate this "no news is good news" saying too. No it's not! Actual good news is good news like an official announcement from the club. No news means we're still short of quality. If we sign Njie now I'd be disappointed it has taken this long, I don't see why this type of signing was not made before the season started.

I'm pretty sure 'The end is N'Jie' represents the end of the transfer saga, i.e. we've successfully negotiated with Lyon over his transfer.

Here is hoping that Trix's mystery DM is Spanish; one of Ignacio Camacho, Illaramendi or Javi Martinez.

here's hoping this thread doesn't get clogged up with guess'es

THE END IS NJIE

I'm so confused. The ambiguity of this statement has my mind in a pretzel.

Harry Kane stated otherwise, I asked what the situation was with Lennon, he said he's training with the First Team. I asked if it was confidential and he said no, he trains with us. Can't get a more direct answer than that surely?

Maybe he's just not giving anything away about a possible delicate situation?

 

[biscuitbeck]

Is rebrab not normally on the ball with when things will actually be announced? I take his post to mean that the transfer will shortly be made official.

or maybe he is training with the squad...he may not be in the clubs plans anymore and they may be actively looking to sell him but cant see the benefit in treating him like a leper in front of many who are probably his mates....think that would do more harm than good.

Maybe he's just not giving anything away about a possible delicate situation?

yeah maybe...if you feel the need to put a negative spin of absolutely every fucking thing.

 

[Kushal]

Is this N'jie Goodnight?

 

[mikeeegreen]

yeah maybe...if you feel the need to put a negative spin of absolutely every fucking thing.

How is that a negative spin? Lennon being as far away from the squad is nothing but positive IMO. Poch has openly said he is not in his plans, so shouldn't have to deal with him.

Well, that's not fucking hard.

He wouldn't have said anything at all if that were the case.

Could mean anything surely? Like it's nearly a dead deal. Who knows

 

[Kushal]

Well, that's not fucking hard.

Pretzels? They can be hard sometimes.

Income £35m
Expenditure £20m
Net £15m

We've also had £2m in sell-ons from Falque and Luongo

Soldado c.£12m, Lennon c.£6m

All-in-all, that's about £35m to play with

Berahino £18m, Nigel £10m, leaving £7m towards the Bender fund

 

[the yid]

It's been so quiet for so long I think I'm going to explode with all this new information!

 

[mikeeegreen]

He wouldn't have said anything at all if that were the case.

He was asked a direct question...

 

[PhezTHFC]

I just don't understand why people can take things from one scale completely down to the other end. @mikeeegreen is rubbing off on some...

We also supposedly have that £11m building sale that was supposedly earmarked for transfers, according to I think it was Edmonton saying that the papers were actually right about that for a change
