The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 19th August 2017

[Luka Van der Bale]

Now I have visions of Steve Hitchen as Varys from game of thrones with his little birds gathering info across Europe!

Certainly would think Sanchez is all him, maybe he got the early Intel on Martial and Aurier being available too?

Doesn't take a lot of connections to know Aurier is available haha. Been pimped out all over Europe all summer.

Yesterday Igijedi replied this when asked why we didn't announce Sanchez with Rose googling him.

We planned to do it but…

There's definitely something in that I think but it just got passed by cos we had so much to talk about. Maybe Rose is on the way out this window (as JJ said was possible) and we know it's not Chelsea, which leaves manure ....and Martial

I just took that to mean that it was proposed by the team that handle the announcements, but the club didn't want to do it.

Just a thought, we're all interpreting Hercules' ITK about a transfer being a possible goer, after being a no-go, in relation to players we've recently been linked with i.e. this summer.

But maybe it's an older link? What about Isco? He would certainly be a "gamechanger", in every sense. Certainly more than Martial IMHO.

We were all over him last summer but he wouldn't come. Maybe he's changed his mind. Bale has apparently been told he's the future of RM and is fit. And Asensio looks special, so maybe it's time for Isco to re-evaluate his options, especially in a World Cup year?

Seems to have broken into the Madrid team now

Putting 2 and 2 together, I think Hercules' comments in the Martial thread make it pretty damning who he's talking about.

According to Urban Dictionary

Pot noodle = "To leave a party or gathering for the purpose of going home to masturbate."
Gamechanger = "The act of pulling out your dick, instantly changing any plausible situation into something utterly different"
Winnered = "There aren't any definitions for winnered yet"

Hope this helped

Not in the slightest, but thanks for the reply!

ali z:
think it will be 2 more to add to foyth gazzinag one will almost definitely be Barkley.

 

[yankspurs]

Oh god. Another way to misspell Gazzaniga for SC.

So is that 2 on top of foyth and the keeper?? That's how I read it

So if we assume this is true, again it's either a right back or a pacy forward minded player. Personally think we need both.

 

[cozzo]

Yup!

 

[For the love of Spurs]

ITK matches the others we have heard, question is will the 4th be a RB or will it be a pacey wide forward type. Personally think KWP, Trippier and Dier can cover fine, would rather a Mane type of player.

 

[yankspurs]

Or 1 on top of Foyth, Gazzaniga and Barkley.

 

[SDogg]

He does say he 'thinks' so likely just opinion

Barkley, Foyth, Gazzaniga and a secret weapon.

 

[mw828]

Classic spurs. No action until mid-late August, then go on for not 2, not 3, but 14 signings.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

Perverts. The lot of them

 

[rossdapep]

ali z:

I'm reading this as Ali Z believing it will be Barkley and a RB - didn't he say "no" to a wide forward? - whilst JJ and others think we have a shout of adding a wide forward on top of that

Could be taken as his prediction and he doesn't consider the #gamechanger likely enough to come off. Doesn't mean it won't.

 

[klacey]

If we can pull off these 4 remaining signings we are looking good for a long season.

I think all the itk guys have different sources so no surprise others might get some differing info, but mostly the same. Either way the info provided here has been most appreciated.
