The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 30th August 2012

[Bofbro]

There is no bleating this summer about Remy from The Goat, unless it was yesterday's "plan D" cryptic, but I thought JJ hinted it was a player with a "D" name.

Unless we are awaiting a new Goat post...

I thought it meant we are on to D Levy targets as others have not come off.

Well this news is making my shift all the more manageable. However I have 90% battery and a notoriously bad battery in my iPhone... I need to be very disciplined with my usage to make it last. God knows how I'm gonna manage tomorrow

Sorry. Fat knob, should just use my finger on my phone.

Why 5pm?

The deadline for international transfers is different I think. It's 5pm for that and 11pm for domestic transfers.

I think.

 

[Super Tottenham]

Why 5pm?

As you would perhaps expect from Germany's top flight, the transfer window is organised in a transparent, terribly efficient way, to the point that it effectively closes a good 12 hours before the rest of Europe.
Every day at noon, the DFL (German football league) publishes its latest transfer list.

If you're not on the final version this Friday, you can't be signed by a Bundesliga club this summer and by 18:00 local time the deal must be fully concluded.

....................

This year's closest shave will probably involve Rafael van der Vaart's return to Hamburg, but that deal too needs be done by tea time.

The Goat was certainly hinting at losing your religion

Remy

I was thinking either a mistake or you was a massive Apple fanboy

 

[TOPHOTSPUR]

Hope we sign remy.
He would give Both Lennon and Adebayor competition for places.

Would be nice to rest Lennon or bale for the odd game, rather than them knowing they start regardless of form.

 

[Col_M]

The BEST transfer window yet!

I am on my last few days of my job, therefore I have nothing to do but respond to the odd query or email. I work from home.
I have Sky Sports News, The Internet and a lorry load of Toast! Bring it on!!!!

 

[DIEHARD]

Is Remy any good? I have watched him a coupl eof times and well... underwhelming to say the least.

Are these players that Levy is buying and not AVB?

 

[nightgoat]

Idk what 'tawny' means but the first 2 both refer to Moutinho.

Also refers to Moutinho.

How do you know he's fat?

 

[Sum Monsterism]

Sorry. Fat knob, should just use my finger on my phone.

You're looking at him but talking to me?

 

[tonyc]

And if it is a striker, then I am happy!



And if it is Llorente I will be so happy that I´m willing to run around the block naked waiving my wiener merrily around!

Me, too, but at my age (59) considerable shrinkage makes it diff to find the old thing....

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

This isn't a formation post per se before I get hammered!
If AVB sticks with 4-2-3-1 I would prefer to stick Dembele out on the left of the 3 given his ability to go past players.
I've said all along I wouldn't want Remy. I watched him a few times for marseille last season and was massively underwhelmed. Hopefully SSN are misinformed!

 

[welshyid1982]

First post for a long time but I. Marseille hotel and just had breakfast next to joey Barton. His agent was there on phone and I heard him say that someone from tottenham is due here to meet with the marseille president and that joeys meeting woul therefore e later

 

[mil1lion]

I'm planning on kidknapping VDV until deadline day is over. Who's up for it with me?

I reckon we could do it like that scene with the truck from the movie Old School.

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

How do you know he's fat?

I believe he's labellin himself a fat knob
for rating my post dumb by accident. Atleast I hope!

Ha, sounds like you heard the phone in with the Sky reporter this morning on SSN.He was was Joey Barton this morning talking about one of the Spurs board expected by Marseille to arrive with an offer for Remy. I don't think it was Joey's agent.

 

[SpurSince57]

Weve spent around 37mil but recouped around 48mil in sales so far this window, defo doable, esp if Rafa is off for around 15mil aswell as a few more.

How do you figure that?
