Happy Monday Y'all.

Hopefully we'll get the best kind of ITK today "aeroplane ITK". I think it will be quite telling who was on that plane and who has been left at home.

I talked to Hugo, Harry, Verts, Moooosa and Ledley last night and none of them seemed to have a clue as to any in-comings. As A&C don't like pictures in here i won't post them. Hugo has a small cast on his hand and feels that he will be good to go to Old Trafford.

Me, i was like a kid in a fucking sweet shop, and i must say that all the guys were very polite and offered autographs and pictures. This after a bastard nine hour flight that i take countless times a year, so they were really going out of their way.

Couple of bits. We are really pushing for the two in this week, and we/MP wants them in place ready for the Real game. Looks like Berahino has shot up the list now, and I'd go as far as saying this one is now likely. As for CM Kramer is still the optimum choice, but as has been said previously will be harder to do than JM. It has basically been explained to me that it is crunch time. If we don't receive the required encouragement regarding our primary candidates this week, we will move on quickly because MP wants everything settled ASAP.
Outs are dragging a little but still looking very likely. The issue is that for most of the players they are taking a step down, and as such want to make sure that every option is looked at first(can't really blame them). Interest in all of those we are looking to let go though. Ade is expected form both sides to happen, but as I have said before this is Ade and nothing is ever straight forward where he is concerned.

Cheers for the info Trix.

That's a nice little boost of positivity. Glad we are wanting players in and settled for the start of the season, as long as we don't drop down targets and panic buy as before. Though the indication this year is that we havent left ourself in a position of having to do that.

Feel a bit excited again.

Would be curious to know why Berahino shot up the list, perhaps he has always been fancied but the agent put us off.

Happy that Kramer is still thought of as possible too and is viewed as the priority. Seems as if we have everything agreed to be able to do the JM deal if MK doesnt come to fruition.

cheers Trix, sounding positive

I like the fact that we are still trying to convince Kramer, although unlikely we are still aiming high

If we want McCarthy we need to hurry up, Chelsea have upped Stones bid to £26m and Kenwright would be lynched from a flagpole by Everton fans if he sells his 2 star players, Stones goes first then forget McCarthy, get it done Levy

Great bit of info, cheers Trix.

I'm glad to hear we're still in for some top targets. Looks like we may see something over the next couple of weeks.

How did you get to that from what I posted?
You'll be surprised what people can get from anything you say. There is actually no way to say anything, literally anything, without someone taking it a completely different way or seeing some ambiguity in it.

So basically we are getting Werner, 100%, no doubt about it.........

:playful:

Ha ha.

As I have said all along, 2 in as a priority. One CM and one forward. Another forward is a real possibility dependant on the outs. As for Werner I have no idea how far along this one is although it's blatantly obvious we have an interest.

It's more likely a case of other targets dropping off the list than Berahino suddenly flying up it.
