This (miss-quoted) line, and the song that's requested, links 3 characters, Rick Ilsa and Sam, who all 1st met in another country Paris. Rick and Sam have been in Casablanca for some time when Ilsa suddenly turns up unexpectedly, leading to the other much quoted line ..."Of all the gin joints in all the world" etc. So is it possible that Rabiot (Ilsa) may be turning up unexpectedly from Paris to join Aurier and Moura ("Rick' and "Sam") who all played together at PSG?

Using this theory, could be Rabiot

Didn't we chase him before and it didn't go through. Now we are back trying the same tune again.

Nice theory. Nice and complicated :).

Was there ever a definitive answer given to the rest of the cryptics that were set? Any info is of course appreciated, and I can understand the sensitive nature may restrict any of our ITK's divulging too much, but pages and pages of the most obscure and tenuous guesses surely is as bad as spam?

Enter the thread thinking there is some discussion about a bit of info and find 100's of posts guessing 63 different players from Bale to Sam Johnstone?

If it’s a player who we’ve already had strong ITK or multiple links in the press (i.e. Bale, Grealish, Martial, Toby, Pulisic etc) why bother with a cryptic?

IMO it’s either another player not in the press or the management here are simply trying to occupy us for a bit so they can enjoy World Cup Super Saturday! :cautious:

For fun? Maybe the ITK who hasn’t the information doesn’t want to put his reputation on the line but wants to share what he’s heard maybe it’s not imminent and negotiations aren’t taking place so it may not happen. But he believes it’s possible.

BBC reported that PSG needed to sell €60m of players by the end of June to comply with FFP. Perhaps a player from there? (Rabiot?)
