Sanchez is an interesting one to be connected with...

Exactly the type of player that fits the profile of what we would look for but that reported price tag seems very unlike us even with the new economics taking place in the sport.

Still nice to get some ITK that seems positive
I don't think we should be surprised if we pay asking price for this player. Remember we have injuries and money burning hole in our pockets. We need to start moving now and we will

Opinions of ITKs = not ITK.

ITK = information. Not opinion.

Blurry line though innit. JJ's opinion is informed opinion. He wouldn't say he's changed his mind on Rose unless he's heard something surely?
Or he is more able to anticipate the reaction of the key decision makers due to his proximity to them - informed opinion but may not be anything definite

If he uses the term "in my opinion" there is literally no blurred line.

Blurry or not, when opinion starts to be taken as fact, which has happened a lot this summer, then a line needs to be drawn. As you say, jjetsets opinion is worth a bit more consideration but that's a one off, treating it all as info is dangerous and we then start diluting the whole thing until it's not just the lines that are blurred, everything gets blurry :(

Opinion is opinion.

It's not the fact that its his opinion, its the fact thst his opinion changed. People don't just change opinions without a reason to do so.

Of course we don't know what that reason is but we do know that JJ is connected so its safe to assume he didn't just wake up and change his mind.
