Did’nt we have ITK that Poch was meeting Levy and the board this week about our summer transfers ?

Perhaps Poch being happy ties in with this meeting

Poch is probably just happy because we've qualified for the Champions league and the pressure is off now. He has visibly been showing the strain for past few weeks

I would think its contract related, doubt we would be signing anyone significant quite yet. Still good to hear!

Not much of ITK if that's the reason he's happy.

Funny how agents leak to media, because we have watched a player, that we have bid. Look out for some great surprises. The hands are covered. Windows are blacked out. Phones switched off-analogy, as we plan our moves, which are far advanced.

Poch is a very happy man today ?

Maybe we had a big signing agreed in principle as long as we made the champions league. Today could have been the crossing the t's and dotting the i's

All his ambiguous comments lately might have been hints on a new, improved contract and transfer budget. Hint to dearest Daniel. I suspect that's what he got today as a reward for delivering what was asked of him - CL going into the new stadium.

I doubt it would be pochettino very happy regarding contract as it would be worded different. I am guessing it is someone who he really wants and it has gone over the line today or last night

Maybe he's had assurances over budget and commitment to certain targets

It could just be that he's been constipated and he's dumped an enormous turd in the toilet.

Whatever it is, it sounds positive

On that basis I’m ecstatic!

We've been stuck in an assurances ITK loop for a while. Players wanting ambition and Poch's future assurances before new contracts. Poch wanting ambition and funding assurances before agreeing any new deal. Levy wanting CL status assurances before signing off on any money items. With CL tied up that ideally breaks the loop and lets everything start to fall into place. I am sure our scouts, agents, and recruiters are working hard but I think it would be optomistic to assume that means a big thing has been finalized as many clubs around Europe are still trying to figure out their own loops ahead of this weekend.

Had a game in the pub today, first person to touch a phone has to buy a round.

Think a few are single now.
