The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 21st July 2015

[Jamturk]

According to the ITK our options for DCM are limited and OVERPRICED so fuck em.

Trix says to expect "no surprises" in our transfers in, does he? So we're getting some bloke called T(h)om from York(e) City. And then we're going to nearly drown him by making him wear an astronaut helmet which we'll fill with water.

Think Trix's source may be a tad off the money on this one, chaps and chapesses.

I have no idea what the fuck you are talking about scat. But i like it.

 

[Wellspurs]

Jesus wept has it really come to that when people are accepting of the possibility of Dier being our CM/DM .... nothing against him he is a useful versatile defender but come on ffs. I swear Levy could continue not paying the going rate for quality players and out of spite MP could stick Lloris in the centre of the pitch and some would still suggest it could work.

That's ridiculous, Lloris is so left-footed he would have to play wide.

No need to call me names. Injust didn't know.

As far as I am awarw Mason is yet t7o be spied in any friendly or active training shots; could be that the Wilshere injury is more serious than we thought. Surely that would promot activity in the market, unless Delle boy is seen to be the answer.

OK it's Kid A..... still after our first choice targets?

I think some are being a little impatient.
We could be working on these deals as ITK suggests.
Who cares about other clubs and there signings, as long as we get who we need then it's all good.

I think it doesn't help with the season starting so early everything feels a bit closer. Obviously transfer window doesn't close for over a month but it feels like we should be getting stuff done with season starting in 2 1/2 weeks.

 

[Gedson100]

Poch didn't trust any of the late arrivals last year so, fuck it let's just go with what we've got.

Easy to just desire new toys for the sake of it, we've got a bunch of lads who will pull for each other are growing together and have another season of experience under them. It'll probably lead to a middling season but we need to look long term and empower the players of the future, not just spend for the sake of it.

What the hell, eh?

How's that for "No surprises"?

 

[GetSpurredOn]

We are currently £9-10m in profit

However Lennon and Chiriches, and maybe Soldado and Dembele are our only major sellable assets left. So we'll struggle to afford say 3 x £15m players.

The ITK from a day or so back suggests Chiriches, Frederiks, Ade and Lennon out, maybe Carroll too, with just two signings incoming, DM and CF. So with the £10m ish already in the pot, £25-30m ish in total to spend. Although typically we've broken even over recent transfer windows, you'd assume there must've been some form of cash put aside for summer signings to allow us to pick up a couple of £15-18m ish players, especially given the fact the wage bill must be lower.

 

[npearl4spurs]

ffs y'all are some miserable fuck ups

Somebody throw the hissy fit bat signal to the Eric Dier thread or go to the 2015-2016 Pre-Season Matches
thread to discuss how players are getting fitness and minutes in fucking closed door friendlies

or go to tottenhamhotspur.com to watch videos on how every player knows this shit is just for fitness right now.

or go fuck off and stop spamming the thread

Just as a heads up, A&C has posted these in here over the last 2 days:

If you started all this Man United talk, you've lost the right to post in here. If you took part in it, you've lost the right to post in here.

Some of you not for the first time. You know who you are. A third time will result in a ban from the entire ITK and Transfer Rumours Forums. For good.

Enough is enough.

The team that starts against United, Cambiasso, lovely, another few idiots gone.

Anyone else who really couldn't care less that this thread is for ITK and not fantasy line-ups or bigging up the player you "want" will find me of the same mind when it comes to having them post in here.

Not sure if people missed it or ignoring them, but i would suggest taking the talk for who should be staring against United here:
http://www.spurscommunity.co.uk/index.php?threads/team-v-man-united.120384/

or the talk on who played where in the traning ground games here:
http://www.spurscommunity.co.uk/index.php?threads/2015-16-pre-season-matches.119288/

 

[Greenspur]

I'm not sure it actually matters if Adebayor goes or not to be honest. He's clearly not going to be involved and has been asked to stay away. Obviously it's preferable to get him off the wage bill etc. but he's not going to be causing us any trouble otherwise if he stays, and I expect we'll replace him regardless.

I would think that Ade is irreplaceable*.

"Little update

Brad came to my restaurant last night he is good friends with a lady that I know that works at Coke. I e-mailed her and asked here to bring Brad to my restaurant she told me that she was in Russia but she would call him and tell him to come in for dinner.
Well about 5 last night I get a phone call from a number I didn't recognize and it was Brad Friedel. He asked for a table for ten people which was a bit of a squeeze we worked it out.
I can't tell you how nice of a bloke he is and how much he loves Spurs and how much he hates the arse. Giving one of he mates a good bit of shit. Told me that we are deffo in for a striker but won't happen until we get rid of Addy which he fully expects to happen.
Also said that Bobby would be sold if we can git rid.
Said Harry Kane is a really nice kid and that Hugo will give Daniel one more year
I would post a picture but have never been able to do that "

Great news re: Hugo

 

[Grapo2001]

Why would Brad tell him all of that?

Also he doesn't even work for spurs anymore does he? (Brad)

Really appreciative of ITK but....
Would rather he didn't reveal the source like that. i doubt brad will be happy to see this and may not be so engaging with fans in the future.

Because he's got no hair. Never tell a bald man a secret, as it just escapes. Hair is the key to secret-keeping. You can always trust really hairy people; not hairy women though. They're bad.

As far as i'm aware he still works for us as an ambassador
