The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 30th August 2012

Am gonna guess that at 22:30 tomorrow we will all be glued to SSN waiting on us to confirm one or two.

..... yep... Internet connection, f5 key + spares and a box of luxury m&s tissues.

Somebody needs to tell our gaffer that the job of crushing our dreams is taken and Jetset is doing a fine job

you should dream bigger than Remy!

 

[clasess]

Don't want Remy. He's extremely average, injury prone, and I'd rather have Rafa play any day of the week.

Just seems pointless.

I'd like to quote HappySpur on that one:

I don't know what all this injury talk is about. The heart condition was resolved, I believe, years ago.

As for his knees.....he's played 36, 36, 43 and 41 total matches in the past four years. League level each year has been 30+ except last year when he did just a paltry 29. That's not what I'd call injury prone. We'd be ecstatic if Lennon had those numbers.

 

[Buster18]

Possibly but he will make up for it in the games he turns up for.

Absolutely. Say if he turned up in 1 in 4 he's arguably going to contribute more in that than Rodellega would in the 4 together

 

[SonicSarr]

happy about that, as not a Remy fan - but hope it doesnt mean no striker period

No, we had our 'no striker period' during the US tour and up to the West Brom game.

 

[Bobbins]

I'd like to quote HappySpur on that one:

He's still not particularly good.

 

[punky]

I love Rafa but if he is going and we bring in Mouts, LLoris and Remy would people be happy?.

If that is who AVB wants and Levy gives them to him, I'm happy.

There is no point trying to hang on to players we love like VdV and Dawson if AVB doesn't want them. To all those of us who wanted change and got it, we need to back the manager and see what happens in the next couple of seasons.

 

[punky]

I'm worried that there doesn't seem to be a plan for Ade's stand-by, considering he will go to the ACN in January.

Although someone said Remy can play the lone centre forward role?

 

[Brewster]

When do players need to be signed by to play on Saturday?

 

[stov]

Looking at Twitter then saw about ten tweets on itk updates I take it its going crazy in here?

 

[Buster18]

Maybe Levy has gone to Marseille, but not for Remy?


Ayew?

Bless you!!!

He can AND I think Levy must have the Togo - Gabon game fixed because we don't seem to be targeting strikers (if AVB is telling the truth).

 

[Supersi32]

So IF itk is to be believed and VDV is off, then we really have dismantled a top 4 side through one circumstance or another, the only comfort from the VDV news will be if we sign Moutinho and another striker/wing forward.

 

[Misfit]

A bit.

 

[sussexyid]

So... Mouts is done but not done, Lloris is due a medical shortly, everyone is arguing over wether Remy is worth it or not...
SOunds like the Window is going to shut in about 29 hours time or something.
Oh, wait....

So, who is our big surprise this year??

 

[Buster18]

When do players need to be signed by to play on Saturday?

Midday

 

[Supersi32]

When do players need to be signed by to play on Saturday?

Midday on Fri I think...

 

[steve]

So Goat cryptic is wrong on Remy? Does that mean other player is wrong also?

Last time we had such an overhaul was the start of 2008 season

Is AVB going to sit there in his press conference and tell us the whole truth? The rumours don't come from nowhere. I think it's pretty safe to say that some interest was resurrected.
