The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 5 July 2011

[CAS_GG]

hmmm i dunno

i am ever the optimist regards spurs i must admit...i think we really do want & believe we will get him..

we shall see i guess, but at the end of the day & as a loyal levy follower, if he refuses to take us to the next level in player then whats the point..

he should sell us on, because its our club & we support it for the glimmer that we may atain glory..

i have to agree with harry, at some point we have to gamble (not leeds utd) but have a fuckin go you know?

As someone who has been going to The Lane since the mid 60's I actually believe Levy/ENIC have taken us as far as they can.

I hate chelscum/shitty and they way they do business but if we want they type of players some of you (and me ) want and retain the likes of Mod then maybe its time!

Mind it will be the beginning of end for me

The latest news from Spain is that Juventus have been talking to Rossi's agent and they will try to sign him if they dont get Aguero. According to the report, Rossi is willing to go there and a fee would be of around 30m€.

Ive got a feeling the Rossi saga will go on all summer.,,

and this is why we will be down his list of preferences...and why it hasn't been dismissed as such from his end, keeping his options open but still has time to monitor other developments etc..

IMO, the likelihood is he will end up somewhere else but I think we are very much in for him - as the ITK has always suggested and of course Harry's comments last night.

The question is will we have feasibile contingencies in place if he turns us down?

...time to get a new stadium.

that's the issue. that's why keeping pace will be a monumental challenge.

Just got back and can't be arsed to catch up from where I last read, sooooooooo, what happened at 9pm? The widely anticipated 'fuck all' I assume?

I guess you could say Harry telling SSN he wants Rossi is a bit like the bid for Aguero in Jan. A posturing exercise for the fans.

The thing that is different now is Bale, Modric, VDV all will want to leave by January if we are not fighting for a top 4 place. Harry plans to leave too for England. So if our most talented players leave we are back to square 1, the before Jol era. Levy can then forget about selling THFC for a profit.
He needs to splash the cash to keep in touch with the clubs above. If he dont all the hard work put in the previous 6 years is down the pan. Im sure Levy knows this.
So i do think Rossi is very much on the radar...even for €30m

u couple that with whats happening at arsenal and city losing tevez and we need to keep everyone and add 3 serious top players and we will piss top 4 and imo challenge for title in a big way

 

[Viper]

Again you actually believe we would actually advertise that if we were really after him?


Sell tickets comes to mind

Your a very suspicious man, lighten up dude and consider that maybe harry was telling the truth. It would make no sense for him to make up that we bid 35 mill for a player, I'm sure levy wouldn't be best pleased

I had a five minute fumble with the wife. That's about it although I was pleased as it happens about as often as a spurs transfer. Maybe it's a sign that we are getting Rossi!

Right, sorry for the late reply lads me and my mate decided we had nout all else to do tonight so we went on a huge detour. I went to the lane at 8:30 stayed till 8:50 then realized no cameras, place was pitch black no one there, so we thought clearly nothings happening here, then we went to Holly House and Spurs Lodge.

'We arrived at Holly House first about 9:15? as we were guessing that lately people have been saying there's medicals there lately, we arrived there and arrived at the entrance on Buckhurst Hill but you needed a card to get through the doors, so we left that and went around the back and saw some private bupa nurse leaving asked the nurse if they had any high profile sports people arrive lately as we'd heard it was a hot spot for new players, they said none today but they've got two arriving midday tommorow, asked if she could say who they were but she said "its more than my jobs worth you'll have to try see for yourself" so when we left

Then went onto Luxborough Lane where EVERYTHING was lit up, there was literally shitloads of lights on and at the time we got there and then some member of staff asked us what we was doing there and if we worked for the club, we said no and a big burly Scottish guy told me "Well fck off then" and I've just got in now and decided to post this, haha.'

It's that other twat that irritates me, the one that looks like Stoof. Swanson is it? Sat there next to a pile of mobile phones that everyone in the studio has just slung there for effect.

Good work fella. Now get back there tomorrow.....

 

[Snuzzy]

so apparently Liverpool bid £15m for Downing (they'll probably get him if they throw in N'Gog too)

can you imagine what we could do if we decided to match their spending this transfer window?
