The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 23rd August 2017

[BoringOldFan]

When he forces his way into the team and becomes one of the top goalkeepers in the world he'll use these comments when giving an interview to the Sun while trying to force a move and you'll all look very silly.

So true, Dougal!
But until then.... ;-)

This story is on the third tier of news on BBC's football page. It's even below Walker-Peters' contract signing, which was on there this morning. Guess that puts the SCBC's reserve 'keeper joining us as - what? - third choice into perspective.

I just read through the last 3 pages of this thread.

All I can say is... It's GazzANiga, not just Gazzinga guys!

Please don't turn him into the next Eriksen.

Who knows, he might have his distribution of the ball better than Hugo!!
Give the poor soul a effg chance!!

 

[Gollorius]

I don't understand why some have to slate a player when he's just signed for us.
FFS let him get through the door first and actually play badly before all the negativity.

I have no doubt that we will never see him in a Spurs shirt. I mean playing - before someone posts his announcement pictures!

 

[SpartanSpur]

Some people are too precious. I took the reaction as a bit of fun, no one attacking the bloke personally. Turn your sarcasm detector off and it's actually quite positive. I'm sure everyone wishes him well, and will fully support him if he does indeed get on the pitch at some point.

He's basically an assistant to Toni Jimenez on the training pitch, never going to be getting everyone in here reaching for the tissues (which is quite a feat as it doesn't take much!).

Big Bang Theory I suspect .... Sheldon's "Bazzinga!"

Maybe this is the "parade"

 

[Bosher]

Welcome Paulo. We like to joke about him being an underwhelming signing, but as long as he's a Spur, he'll get my support.

 

[Hoopspur]

So as this was clearly (well probably) a signing at the recommendation of Poch, then we are all going to call out the guy as shite and question our manager's judgement? Shame for the guy to be in this position right from the get go.

 

[db1]

I'm sure he'll be a hit with the female fans if not many of the guys

 

[worcestersauce]

I posted this weeks ago that this poor bugger is going to get stick just for being the first signing completed, if we'd bought three or four already he'd have got a good welcome.

Do you mean Jordan Sancho?

I see a couple of sarcastic posts about Gazzaniga. But they do raise the point about which of the players we've been tipped to sign will actually slot straight into the first team? I don't even think Barkley would start if we got him.

nope, davinson sanchez. http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/davinson-transfer-complete-230817/

 

[wirE]

What planet have you been on for the past week? Sanchez was announced last week.

edit; this just in: http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/davinson-transfer-complete-230817/


no he isn't. a pre-contract agreed but not the official john hancock and the handshake. But then again, i might be wrong about announcing players that has been pre-contracted due to medical

 

[wirE]

We don't normally announce a player again after their medical

Edit; I guess we do http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/davinson-transfer-complete-230817/

Well, my mistake then. I thought we announced players and do the photo with the shirt and all that.

Sorry lads, was out for a boozy lunch. #LawyerLife

Welcome Paul Gazza. I remember watching your namesake smash a belter of a free-kick in at Wembley.

If you end up being the Argentinian Chilavert and doing the same thing, I'll like you just fine.

Welcome.

COYS.

The thing is he will probably never play! The transfer window is like Xmas where we wait to see what Father Levy Xmas has brought us. We just wanted a better present...

ask and you shall receive... but be patient

 

[talkshowhost86]

People do realise that us signing Gazzaniga doesn't stop us signing other players right?

Right?!

Depends on what his contract says!

Way too quiet for comfort....
