Personally I fear a lot of the players we are being linked to via ITK are all pace and no intelligence. We've seen this with Lennon and Townsend, it simply DOESNT make a good footballer just being quick.


Ah the old if you have pace you have no intelligence argument

I love that @cozzo has had the balls to post that in the ITK Discussion thread, despite surely knowing that a complete ruining from A&C is on the cards. You're a brave man, sir! :playful:

Should be proud of the beast stereotype as it suggests they employ the necessary assets to dominate the opposition.

Similar to how black baskeball players revel in being told how high they jump or that they got "game".
Ya it means they dominate the opposition, but black players usually get labeled a beast when they dominate...while white players are labeled intelligent, crafty, graceful, ect...not that this doesn't hold true some occasions, but generally it does

This is the itk/cabbage thread not the racial stereotype one.

Seems clear a wide pacey forward and a CM are almost certainties from the itk. Can't see any other signings unless it's a striker and maybe a replacement for someone we don't wanna sell (Hugo).

Undeniably the best place to be having this debate, chaps: not at all a General Football discussion. (y)(y)(y)

Read this quote from Dier on Alli -

"Dele Alli and Nabil Bentaleb have been really impressive in the endurance running. Everyone knew about Nabil but Dele seems to be getting close to him so it's been interesting! He's put up a good test!"

Interesting that - not only he is impressive technically, but also physically looks perfect & mature for a 18 year old.

Watch out! I don't think Dier has been verified as ITK by A&C!
