The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 18th July

[tRiKS]

how can you say that he is worth that huge amount of money?

When you're talking about 20m+ I think the burden of proof falls on the supporter rather then the "naysayer" which appears to be me.

what a well worded response... shame its all fur coat and no knickers bullshit

at 23 and wearing the No.9 for Brazil with his goals record in the past 2 years, reputation amonsgst peirs and journalists and when you compare to prices of carroll, borini, defoe, sturridge to name but 4, the Burden of proof is most certainly against your stance

 

[Original # 10]

I have a good feeling about today.

I'd like to retract this comment.

The lack of ITK today has made me feel about as good as Nick Buckles

You have set out a strong prima facie case there. Now over to the Defence if they feel it worth continuing.

Done arguing as it's a pointless discussion.

The "price" of players is a huge argument that I can't be arsed to make. A lot of it is due to the market, how many clubs are involved, how much the club wants to keep him, how many years on his contract, need in a position, etc.

All I can say is that for 23 million we could sign Huntelaar. Or, we could take 12-18m of that and spend it on Rondon, then put the rest towards Lloris and Moutinho. Remember, Adebayor should be coming. If he doesn't come then the entire argument changes.

Bloody Nora, I feel like a member of the jury!

 

[supachan]

How can you say that without having seen him play in the PL?

If he becomes a success and gets us CL the next 2, 3 years he will be worth more than 100m for us.

If he fails, he is so young that we will get a huge amount of the money back.

At what point has he said he wants to come and play in the Prem let alone Spurs coz i aint seen it .

If anything he bangs on about playin in Italy more than anything , apart from when he says he doesnt wanna leave Inter!!

Fuck me people are about as delusional bout this transfer as Hulk n Falcao ( who IMO is the striker we should be after ,but wont get !) etc.

As I just posted in his thread, Damaio's agent is currently in discussions with Galliani.

Signs point to Higuain.

What signs?

I've heard nothing on it. And I'm happy with that. It's not happening, it's not ITK.

Have we had any new ITK on Damiao?

Did you check the RO

No NONE! !!!!

 

[Spursidol]

Have we had any new ITK on Damiao?

2 years ago - but that doesn't stop some people !

 

[rawhide]

Did you check the RO

Yes. It was rhetorical.

 

[rebrab]

If we're playing 4-3-3, we need 2 strikers. Ideal would be JD out, Adebayor and AN.Other in, with someone else that can play on the right or up top to keep us covered. At the moment none of that has happened, which is why people are getting concerned. HOWEVER, it is still very early in the window, we were just treated with a couple of early deals so people got excited a bit early.

 

[CoopsieDeadpool]

Yes. It was rhetorical.

Ooh I like Rhetorical questions. If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?

 

[TaoistMonkey]

Yes. It was rhetorical.

Ahh ok. I was about to go loco

 

[Hot-Spur]

No birthday signing I take it! Boooooooooooo

Without wanting to piss off the MODS, Happy birthday fella .. If it helps, I got nothing for mine either. Well we signed Vertonghen on the 12th & my birthday was the 13th, so I maybe did a bit better than you

EDIT: After having it pointed out to me, and then looking at your avatar, I can now acknowledge that you are most certainly not a fella. A thousand apologies sent out to you on this special day, your 21st birthday

LMAO, sorry Hot-Spur. In my defence I never looked at your avatar, and the mistake was a perfectly innocent one .. hoodlum, thanks for bringing that to my attention
