The Daily ITK Discussion Thread 22nd May

[Vitur15]

Surely it's one or the other? They play the same position & we're not exactly lacking in the WF dept.

I might be wrong on this but i think Martial plays on the left (and occasionally at striker) and Pulisic plays on the right so that may be why we're after both.

So what about Son, Lucas and Lamela. Plus the fact that Alli also sometimes plays from the left.

It definitely seems overkill to me, I would rather sign one plus another number 9 to take the burden off Harry. Rather thsn stock piling wingers/wide forwards/false number 9’s etc.

I only quote you because you're the latest, but this discussion is being mirrored almost exactly in the Martial thread. In here it's in danger of going wildly into the realms of a twenty page fuckall-ism

What is the significance of the number 22 on the official Spurs tweet of poch's quote about his new contract? Am i being thick?

Ok, point taken.

On the bottom of the tweet? 22 people have commented on it right now if you're referring to the 22 near the bottom next to the bubble quote icon.

 

[Chinaspur]

Great news about Poch..

Bit concerned with all the erections and jizz flying about tho. It’s all very odd.

Not as odd as all the grumbling about Sissoko over on Pornhub

 

[walworthyid]

Lots of links to wide forwards, not against it because we need more creativity going forward, but we will surely be looking for a Dembele successor/replacement. I really can't deal with the thought of seeing Sissoko and Wanyama lining up in our midfield again.

There is a concern that we will only be able to roll out the left side of the pitch in the new stadium.

Herc has suggested we may need to get creative in CM - which could mean we would move Eriksen or Dele back, and/or I think Herc has mentioned some less expensive, though promising alternatives to big money CMs.

 

[Hercules]

We will not spend say 50-60m on 4 players. We may spend that on 2 individuals. With creativity needed on any 30m upwards players. Does not mean it won’t happen. This is DL’d forte. Leave it at that.

 

[LexingtonSpurs]

So we are not spending above £30M on any player - unless we get creative, or we will spend above £30M on 2 players?

If we have to get creative on any player above £30M, we are in for a long, dry summer...

 

[Luka Van der Bale]

Interesting to see what positions we end up prioritising. You’d imagine De Ligt, Martial and our primary CM target would all fall into the 50m+ category.

"We agreed to fee but it fell apart due to the structure."

No we will probably do two deals heading up to £60m each.
The others will be around £30m any higher we will have to be creative. Example lamela plus cash for savic (i made that up, not itk).

 

[Young Nasty Man]

Although I doubt it, Max Meyer would be a Daniel special considering he’s German and on the way out.

 

[LexingtonSpurs]

So it seems to me:

2 of: de Ligt, Martial, Pulisic, Sessegnon

2 or 3 of: other players

I believe I read somewhere yesterday he has signed for Hoffenheim

Think de ligt might be one of the creative ones. Ajax aren't looking for a dutch striker are they?
Also toby for martial?

Who knows?

Thanks herc.

Disappointed with that news.
