The Daily ITK Discussion Thread 5th June

It could just as easily be De Ligt coming in

"His boots in the north, his roots in the south"
De Ligt was born in Leiderdorp, in the province of South Holland.
Plays for Ajax in Amsterdam, in the province of North Holland.

I think it's Alder to United because of the last line, that's life certainly sums up the top players moving to bigger clubs.

 

[lukadownthelane]

Maybe Danny Rose has given up his dream and is staying in the south and signing a new contract?

 

[BringBack_leGin]

@Archibald&Crooks before the mayhem begins, fancy clarifying if this cryptic is related to the other two?

I know it won’t be, but not everyone is as smart as me

 

[rossdapep]

Highlight the thread and it shows up under the first line.

I'm pretty sure it's Toby but it could also be south london to north london. Highly unlikely we are signing Zaha but you never know. Can't understand why Toby going would be cryptic other than a bit of fun...

Yeah Hercules squashed the Zaha possibility.
If it's in relation to Toby then I'd hope we are getting Martial in return - can anyone see anything in those lyrics that suggests something in return?

The man in the south won't open his mouth
'Cause nobody listens to what comes out

I suppose those lyrics rule that out.

Love it. Cryptic time. As good as direct ITK for me... and soooooo much better than net & gross nonsense

"That's life in general, I suppose" sounds slightly sombre and accepting, like saying there's nothing we can do about it.

 

[Twizzle]

Fun Boy 3 = 3 in

lol

that is good news

We’ve had enough of Toby’s spiel over contract and mancs can have him?

You know the song wasn't specifically written about our 2018 transfer rumours, right?

I agree with others, it's probably Toby, or maybe we're missing out on a player to one of the Manchester sides.

 

[SFCS]

3 = 3

Woah, woah, woah. Slow down brainiac

That's what I am referring to - Toby going and we can't do much about it. The situation is desperate and the money is too good to turn down with no Martial in return. That's just my opinion and I hope I'm wrong.

simpleton is probabaly more accurate

Definitely hope it is Toby rather than Bale to Utd or De Ligt to City.

Being a hidden cryptic and not RO material I assume it is likely to be negative.

 

[Deleted member 27995]

If it isn't Toby then one of the only other shouts is someone like Sess based on the lyrics everyone is highlighting.

 

[DONOS10]

Whatever it is, it doesn't sound like good news

Yeah, we agree. I was just pulling your leg as I thought you were reading a bit much into a line which I doubt the song was picked for.

 

[Scorpio666]

I'm going to be positive and focus on Fun Boy 3 rather than deliberate on the lyrics!

Unless it meant Martial, or us being able to afford another significant signing, I'd much rather it was De Ligt than Toby or Bale as they would improve United far more than De Ligt would improve Cit(or we'd miss him).

That said, I would be sad if we missed out on De Ligt as we wouldn't get the Starland Vocal Band - Afternoon De Ligt teaser from A&C
