The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 10th June 2022

Exactly this. His podcast, followed by the YouTube video and articles all just repeat the same info.

That's just modern reporting in the Internet age, cover all platforms.
Don't see the issue with it personally.

That's how he gets his money. More clicks, more views, more listens and he gets more money. Same for any journalist/write. The more hits, the more commission if it's a paid site. Don't blame him or them for doing it.

Everton are just trying to advertise base price they want to sell and trying to create interest - Oldest trick in transfer book. Of course, with possible FFP issues and league situation they are in , they are in weakened position.

They need to sell Richarlison, who also wants a move… they are in no position to negotiate with us . As for as us, we don’t need to push for him this early in this window. If this were to happen IMO, it will happen late in the window.

You underestimate the power of the pillows my friend.

And the duvets …

I really like Ali G and his videos but it’s felt like recently he‘s been churning them out for the sake of it and repeating the same information over and over again. Unless there’s been a major development or he’s got new information I don’t really see the point in making a video.

Just the way the world works now, and it's by no means his fault at all. Having been there...

Does feel like we are exploring all our options with the back up forward position. If Chelsea want to throw huge money at Richarlison, I’m sure we have a few other options lined up.

CB is surely the bigger priority this window

Because we all watch it.

Disagree - while there are other more pressing roles to fill (the wingbacks, LCB) this is a key position for us - Conte and Paratici would rather move on to another target and get them in for a full preseason than put up with an extended saga till August. Conte wants a title challenge. We need to do our business early - and any "late" business in my view will be outgoings or prospects for the future that won't be in the starting lineup/ would be loaned out

6 hours ago in Brazil would have been between 2am and 5am, so that’s likely a photo from last night.

Flight time roughly 11 hours.

If he boarded a morning flight to London, it could plausibly be Richarlison.

Unless he’s on international duty in which case ignore me.

Between 2am and 5am is when you’d be leaving a club in Brazil, unlikely he went direct from a club to the airport. Don’t know where in Brazil he is but there’s no flights to London from São Paulo until the afternoon, which is the 11 hrs flight. If he’s travelling from another part (he’s originally from the north) then you’d have to factor in a stopover somewhere. In short, it’s highly unlikely to be Richarlison.

Doesn’t really say that in the article
https://t.co/xhN7IFnhiA

“After 6 months at Brentford, with whom he has scored 11 appearances, 1 goals and 4 assists, the Dane has also returned to the national team and now wants a major new challenge, after the end of the contract with his current team. In the Premier League many clubs follow him, and would like to join him. There is also Tottenham, with Antonio Conte who would be happy to embrace him again.”

But that’s not really the point of the post. The point is the ITK at the bottom. Even if the tweet being referred to is nonsense, the comment is useful

 

[Wick3d]

I would have expected Danish journalists to get the scoop on Eriksen's future. I wouldn't trust any other journalist except Di Marzio, who clearly gets briefed directly by Paratici/Conte.

Not sure if its been mentioned but noise by a few supposed ITKs on twitter that the player at the lodge tonight is Malcolm Ebiowei. Seen us linked to him loosely in recent months so could make sense.

Probably cause they’ve been reading the ITK thread then?

Pape Sarr just got tagged in an instagram story on a beach somewhere so if it's true that there's player goin to the lodge it's not him

He does look like a player with high potential. Strong, quick, good balance and an eye for goal.

It doesn't make sense for Sarr to be at the lodge now before pre-season has started.

 

[Mr Pink]

That's what I was thinking.

Unless he was in to get assessed after his loan.

Or before his next loan
