The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 28th August 2014

This new Argentinian has Franco di Santo written all over it. Cheap, would suit a high press, striker...

i hope not the guy is garbage

that his son does know where the goals are

Maybe his dad should have a father son moment and he can remind Andros that knowing and Getting ( the goals) are very different things and he needs to go and do his homework in his room!! on both.

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

You all sound like a bunch of junkies discussing your next hit!

The TW seriously messes with people's heads. I remember in the past when some of you were pining for Diame and Hooper...

Just chill, there is no point throwing random Argentine's names around.

 

[chinaman]

Don't care if it's Argy Bargy. I want another Argie.

 

[Cavehillspur]

When?

Can't find it in the RO but pretty sure he said something like "looks like is one is dead now" almost certain it was JJ anyway. Sometime in the last week iirc.

 

[gazzeh]

JJ alluded as much yes.

He only said looks dead in the water..for now

 

[Parkie]

Why don't you just wait and see instead of naming every bloody Argentinian you can think of apropos of absolutely nothing over the next 20 sodding pages?

Hi,
Welcome to SC, you must be new around here.

 

[chinaman]

Going out for a dental appt and then lunch. Hope that the identity of our new interest would be known when I get back in about 3 hours.

 

[Cavehillspur]

Fair enough, I have completely missed the "...for now" part in that case. Puts a different perspective on it then I suppose.

I deleted my post mate ...thought it was MS instead of MM you were talking about...nearly had a coronary lol

 

[yankspurs]

Why not higuain? Napoli missed the CL money pot and could possibly want the cash..

Dont tell the gooner douchenozzles this. Go for it, Daniel but keep it on the dl. Dont need those gooner twats in for him. Let them stick with a loan for welbeck

 

[THFCSPURS19]

JJ was quoted as saying things have become but someone else can do the up

JJ had said that things had become clear but someone else could do the update. Just surmised from this that maybe we would not like the news.

JJ said yesterday that Vertonghen's new contract was sorted.

As much as I am impressed with Poch's work so far, when I read "another Argentinian" I squirm a bit. Not that have a problem with Argentinians coming in for obvious historical reasons, but I just wonder if it's more to do with being countrymen of the manager than purely talent based, with the nationality being coincidental. Hopefully it's the latter. Not that Poch would be the first manager to look to his own countrymen...

Or you could have summised that JJ has said previously that everytime he gets too optimistic things go tits up so he doesn`t want to say anything in case thats exactly what happens #justsayin.

 

[gerishep]

Maybe he doesn't want to tell us any good news, as lately he's seemed to have jinxed it (inferred by himself recently.)

He's signed one Argentinian out of 5 signings. Two Brits. I am OK with that ratio.

And? What makes you think the potnetial new man is a WC squad player?

 

["sir"billynic]

To me it seems perfectly clear. Vertonghen will be announced as the new captain when they announce his new contract. The delay maybe down to either, new players coming in (potential captain) or waiting until TF deadline day and having at least 1 positive thing to announce if we don't make anymore signings.
