Morning all……..

Pinch and a Punch!

OK yesterday ITK went potty. Well, slightly anyway…….

Someone on Twitter asked JJetset
Some plum on Twitter said:
Are Spurs going to get Alderweireld?
He replied with…..
JJetset said:
Pick the bones out of that cryptic :D

Then another plum, (possibly the same plum, who knows), anyway, the question was asked….
Some plum on Twitter said:
So we dont go for TA and they dont stand in our way for MS?
He replied with…..
JJetset said:
nothing like that. MS not coming to us
Fuck all this vague bollocks :p

So that's Alderwieleld and Schneiderlin out of the equation……

Jasper then chimed in with….
Jasper said:
Still trying to arrange Rabiot. We want to buy at their price, they want to loan for 12 months. We will only consider if we have option to purchase. At this stage PSG don't want to deal. Truth in Benteke with Ade land, or another player plus cash, they also want Carroll. Kono is not dead but unlikely. Had Salvio not had an injury I think he would of been our player. Not nailed on Yedlin will go out on loan. Preseason will determine as with other players. Belgium 21 year old winger there is truth who plays for Monaco. Will we pay the figures Monaco wants is in question, and no bids have been made, contrary to reports. We have inquired about Turan but though I wish it happened cannot see it myself.

Like yourselves I wish things were clearer rather than thinking players turned us down with loads of info going around. Martial gave his word along with agent, he was to be announced along with Trippier and look what happened. Let's just wait and see now.
Erm, yeah…….

So……over on COYS, Trix posted
Trix said:
If Rabiot has become available then he without doubt will have shot to the top of the pile. We really pushed for him in January but PSG didn't want to play ball at all. If his publicly asking for a transfer has changed things, then I think we'd be all over it without question.
Then, on Lennon and Mirallas Trix said
Trix said:
We won't be seeing either.
The final ITK snippet that we got yersterday isn't even worth repeating. But someone will ask so here it is
Hertyid said:
He's not leaving
"He" being Nabil "cough up you dwarf ****" Bentaleb

And that was the ITK from yesterday. Our cup runneth over.

Todays A&C mood-o-meter reads happy to very happy. Don't abuse it.

Laters.

Oh and I almost forgot! Today's word of the day: Reacharound

Fit that into a sensible and on topic post! The best wins a prize.

Reacharound? As in reach around your partners boobs (or your own if you are a lady), determine the bra size, and donate according to the numbers in the size your discovered.
Right?

Trying to dodge buying your mates some drinks by slinking off to the loo, only to discover it's your reach a round. And I'm not talking drinks.....

Edit - Bugger - you said on topic

Us getting Benteke seems a bit of a reach, around now. £32m and we have to build the new stadium? The players we provide will have to knock a lot off of that price tag.

Hoping that the ITK yesterday re Rabiot is correct as if we can reach a round figure sensible agreement with his mum and PSG then everyone can have a good time

as the window formally creaks open we are already playing catchup, in that three of the other top six clubs have already improved their starting XIs, and the two with the most dough are loitering with intent as always. i particularly worry about chelsea in that they are apparently in the market for a holding mid, and a striker, which is precisely where we want to strengthen.

heres hoping we can get some quality in before the middle of the month, and that today brings some encouraging noises.

Surprised by lack of cryptic ITK this summer. And a little disappointed to be honest. I like the ones where we have to act all like a detective. It's fun seeing everyone trying to be Hercules Poirot or Miss Marple or Jack Reacher round here.

Rabiot ITK sounds good although his mother does seem a little overbearing. Could be a problem if Levy insists on a reacharound as part of the deal. Maybe the only way to secure top dollar for her son?

Still trying to work out if Reacharound is cryptic?

As long as it is not too vague where it could mean anyone. I'm sure the Goat is mulling one over right now.

It must be embarassing for a young man to have his mother as his agent.

Whether they make moves now or in late August makes no difference. United, City, Chelsea and Arsenal are moving for a different level of player to what we can obtain. It's not even worth making a fuss about.

When Bentaleb agrees to Levy's terms re wages he will be rewarded with a reacharound

Pants down Nabil you know you want it ;)
