The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 23rd August 2013

What about pastore or nani for creativity? I know its not really itk related but thoughts??

Nani is a winger and for the money not a good enough upgrade. Pastore won't be leaving.

SSN saying Chiriches fee agreed apparently.

I don't think so. I'd assume NDA's would have to be signed by all the people working on the deal first hand to prevent leaks.... It could've been someone in Kia's camp though. Not Kia himself, but someone working for/with him

Please change your sig, and get the Wil*** C*** off it.

31 year olds can still get us in the champions league. I'm thinking of number 10s that we can get in at this stage of the window. I really can't think of any that would come.

He'll be a good stopgap signing until Franco can unearth a gem.

why cant we just say they are signed and then tell ssn... get deals done and damn the fans id say.. let us get excited or pissed off after deal is done.

Wasn't up to much at HSV last season, no guarantees he can get back to his old form.

Seems we're going to try to stop this Willian transfer if you go look in the Willian thread...

Maybe a change will revive him. And he won't cost much.

I feel like nobody actually listened to what Mourinho said. He said if you sign a player before you have done the medical you risk ruining his career if he fails it, as everyone will know he is a crock. So you should do the medical first then sign the player, but it is better to do the medical in secret, just in case the player fails it.

Watch the interview, look at his mannerism, his expressions and his tone and then tell me again he was offering heartfelt advice ....

Despite missing out on Willian we still have a very good team if we sign Lamela, Chiriches, and Coentrao -

Lloris
Walker-- Kaboul --Verts-- Coentrao
Paulinho -- Capoue -- Dembele
Lamela -- Soldado --- FUCK*

*Willian would have been perfect. We just need a creative player in this position. I hope we go for Ljajic or Griezmann.

Of course Sandro could come into midfield for any of the three in there, Holtby hopefully will up his game this season, Townsend, Lennon, and Chadli are great options to have, and Dawson, Chiriches, and Rose are good options to have in defense plus Chiriches can play at RB too.

That's a huge assumption from one tweet.

Your probably referring to my earlier post. If you had bothered to read it correctly, if indeed it is my post you at on about, I said ITK'S "inadvertently" leaking the medical info. Some of the ITK'S posted about his medical before the press, we are all pretty certain journos scour forums for info, papers have broken stories before maybe just an hour after some ITK update, with wording suspiciously similar.

Hi Moonie, Nah, it wasn't your post I was talking about. Check out mine of Tuesday 20th evening at 10.28 when I mentioned two medicals booked. I think several others did similar. It was well known we were in for Willian and things were advancing. All I was saying in my post today you quoted is that I really don't think that news of a medical could be the cause of Chelsea suddenly deciding to bid for Willian.

That's how we roll around here.

Gotta say, really dissapointed about the Damaio link again. Would cost too much for someone that really hasnt shown anything. Would rather go for someone who wouldnt cost as much, say Muriel?

Hard to be sure, but I'd imagine Muriel might cost more, I doubt Udi want to sell and maybe now Internacional are more of a mind to sell Damiao. I'd be happy with either to be fair

Cue Chelsea.

We Shouldn't even bother trying, we should just move on.

The Goat is singing - positively. Need to lighten up.

 

[HoltbiusMac]

Cue Chelsea.

Funny thing is he'd improve their squad more than Willian will.

Totti.

You forgot "Goodnight."
