The Daily ITK Discussion Thread 9 June 2011

[hughy]

Don't mess with Rob. He's got game. Dangerous game.

Those special buttons that no one else has? :lol:

 

[kdspur]

not spurs related but any truth in rumours that clichy is joining liverpool? medical tomm?

 

[bryanabutler]

POTL on COYS



Can only mean Giuseppe Rossi.

Yes please Rossi and Falcao

Where you heard that?

 

[kdspur]

Where you heard that?

all over some liverpool website apparently..this is anfield or something?? brother big pool fan . texted me it

 

[Dinpomp]

Where you heard that?

Apparently new story (not yet published) in the times.

Can we have some clarification on what is ITK bashing and what is just taking the piss???

 

[Shep]

hhmmm, possible truth I guess but as we saw from Liverpool forums during the Suarez saga, they love a medical rumour on there. Think Suarez had 742 medicals prior to completing his transfer!

Or alternatively can we have a separate thread where we can discuss the performance of ITK rather than the content. I can then just avoid the 500 crap and pointless posts to get to the 50 which are worthwhile.

I would say that it's difficult to define either, so I just wouldn't bother

 

[nferno]

so we want arse to get benzema so we can drive a harder bargain for falcao and ultimately lose out because we won't pay what porto are asking anyway while arse strengthen further with the only other option apart from falcao that can possibly make us a top 3 club in benzema? these kind of transfer tactics are worrying.

I don't. I love all the ITK. It's why I signed up to SC.

What?

 

[rawhide]

What?

Ryan's update detailing our brinkmanship

 

[kishman]

What?

I'm baffled as well. :lol:

 

[nferno]

the omitting of commas was intentional as a medium of enhancing the effect of the post reflecting that we are using crazy transfer tactics.

edit: id rather not comment on the itk bashing and dont want to spam up this thread with posts on it when the whole thread is intended for itk discussion not itk bashing; hence the change of subject.

Just to add to what I wrote earlier

Drogba and falcao are both realistic targets, but both come with stumbling blocks. Drogba would need to instigate the move as far as Chelsea are concerned and even then, the feeling is that they would refuse a move to another English club. He would also want an awful lot of money. Were working on it

Falcao is a bit more intresting. By all accounts in comes down to brinkmanship. They want around 27m euros. We want him. Arsenal want him. Teams from Spain and Italy do also. However we see the goons as the main rivals. I think we are trying to avoid a heads up. They also want benzema. If they get him the coast would seem clear for falcao. We would then be able to drive a harder bargain. I don't think we are being tight, were just looking at which option is gonna work out most viable


Leandro will sign. However we have asked to be kept abreast of the wickham situation.

This update for clarification

Isn't there a rumor that Liverpool bid 8 million for Wickham this week?

 

[bryanabutler]

Am I the only one who thinks we have absolutely no chance in signing Rio?

Am i the only one that does not want Rio

 

[DoublePivot]

Am i the only one that does not want Rio

Am I the only one that hated the movie Rio?
