The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 22nd May

[Archibald&Crooks]

The idea of Benteke gives me the horn. I can't remember us having any ITK on him other than JJ's, but prior to that I did hear that we were interested. If we were to sign him, i'd be so excited I might have to stick some celery up my jacksey, put on my Captain Pugwash hat and bash one out in the sweetie aisle in Tesco. Fuck the court order.

The Journalist has said no clubs have been in contact yet.

Don't spoil it for A&C. I want the pics from Tesco.

Cheers A&C I have just covered my new laptop with a mouthful of coffee.

If you could avoid the one in Tring i'd be very grateful. That's where I buy my chocolate raisins...

At least that's what you think they are.

Can he still cornhole himself with celery and defile Tesco's? I will never look at Nougat the same way again

The Journalist gets excellent info from Villa so I don't doubt it. But it doesn't mean we aren't interested. Just that we haven't made an approach to the club.

 

[matty182]

We must have a good relationship with them after giving them caulker and obika ... Did someone else go there too ? Parrett? Mason?

I tihnk it was mason that was down here mate

Agree with this 100%. Better to come at them with a real offer first than just asking how much, as they have been very vocal about prices to scare clubs off.

Memo to self: Don't buy celery at Tescos, or sweets.

What kind of valuation does Villa have on Benteke?


EDIT: Just checked

Transfermarkt market value is 12m Euros
Papers claim 15-20m pounds
Lambert said 25m pounds

 

[BringBack_leGin]

I'm personally quite worried that I read AnC's celery and sweets post and just read on as normal, not registering that it was in any way horrendous. I'm not sure who that says more about, me or AnC. Then again, us Greeks, we're all a bit messed up really...

was just adding on to the part where you said the only ITK was from JJ

 

[COYS1988]

My very vague ITK is that Redknapp has verbally agreed to take the Everton job. I've put a bit on at 66/1 at BetVictor.

And now dropped to 20/1...

 

[Sum Monsterism]

And now dropped to 20/1...

that might be my fault...

 

[Teddy Klinsmann]

What kind of valuation does Villa have on Benteke?

More than our current transfer record you'd imagine. I'd say they'd want £20m.

 

[rawhide]

that might be my fault...

Have you left yourself enough money for rent this time?
