The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 17th June 2012

did that "itk" from cyrus just get deleted? I assume it's because his source wasn't verified?

maybe it was proved to be a previous WUM or something

AVB > Moyes > Blanc imo.

AVB and Blanc are very different candidates to Moyse are would work in a different structure so I honestly can't see them all being in the running if the club has a European structure in mind.

We spent all that money on a silo?

Ha! Even a Training facility!

We all know what position Everton are in, while we've just equaled our best ever prem finish (however disappointing that may have been), we're about to open a grainy facility that will be as good as anywhere in Europe, we're financially sound with a superb stadium on the way?​

A small error in the planning department and it was too late to change it. The players will just have to adapt and learn to play on bread. Ho hum. The cost of poor spelling and grammar.

Correct

 

[SpurSince57]

I don't see it being true. Joe Lewis, who knows nothing about football, isn't going to start demanding we give the job to his chosen managers? Come off it.

I posted earlier, that would have been my reaction too if it hadn't been for JJ's posts last night.

If Blanc is the target we'll have spoken to him already I'm sure.

Yes I'd imagine we have made some preliminary talks with his representatives but still can't see him committing to anything until France are eliminated.

I agree, however, from the horses mouth..........“It’s always gratifying when big clubs are interested in you,” said Blanc. “I can sign elsewhere, before or during the Euros"

What was cyrus's ITK please.

Oh right. I missed last night's posts. I take it JJ is intimating that Joe Lewis is now getting involved? Why would he do that, 10 years into ENIC's tenure? He hasn't shown any interest before!

That's interesting stuff too.

I could live with Blanc or AVB. Either is absolutely fine with me.

After Santini and Ramos I also really struggle to believe that Levy/Lewis would risk anyone without proven Premiership calibre. I'd put AVB in that bracket along with Deschamps, Klopp, Blanc etc

AVB, Deschamps and Blanc all have proven Premiership calibre (admittedly not as first team coach).

None of Ferguson, Wenger, Mourinho, Benitez, Ancelotti etc. (i.e. the most successful coaches in the history of the EPL) had EPL experience when they were appointed.

AVB and 2 signings by tuesday

I did read that A&C which is encouraging but I'm sure realistically, he will want to put all his focus and attention into France's campaign and deflect any speculation over his future - publically anyway.

Think the managerial picture will become clearer as the week progresses and who knows, there may still be a huge twist to this saga!

well according to A&C not ITK, but was about AVB as next manger. You haven't missed anything and was his first post ever or something.

 

[tony0379]

Thanks sam

 

[SpursSvedala]

I asked them about any players they have lined up but they didn't really want to say, they just gave me a hint
Pep said "Blue" and Mourinho said "Yellow"

Blue and Yellow (Check my avatar...) F*CK it´s Toivonen Aaaaaaaarrrgh *killing myself*

 

[Dan Ashcroft]

3 weeks until pre-season starts, if we don't have someone by then we want shooting.

Why the panic? Don't you realise we have Pleat on our payroll.

Yes I'd imagine we have made some preliminary talks with his representatives but still can't see him committing to anything until France are eliminated.

The manner of France's departure is key I think.

Lose to Ukraine = comes with similar 'failure' baggage as AVB

Get to the final or even win the tournament = big clamour from the French public for him to be retained

Respectable loss to Germany in the semi = best situation for us

Likewise, but we'd have to move the sofa to make room for a new bedroom.

Nope. If he is to come to Spurs, then its a no brainer you would want him off the back of winning the competition.
