The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - Last Day Mayhem! READ FIRST POST! Take 3

[cooko70]

Levy doesn't care what we think, supporters are a captive audience.
not like we can change teams.

We can try...after 35 years of going to at least 15 games a season..I'm halfway through a season of self imposed exile...no merchandise or anything.....won't impact Levys wallet, but makes me feel better that I'm not paying his wages...

 

[KILLA_SIN]

Well get the fuck outta this thread and leave me to moan.

No I would rather laugh at you.

 

[venablesphil]

Turning into 'damp squid' deadline day :-(

 

[deano27]

Its the same every transfer window. We will still be making bids for leandro on the last day of the summer transfer window amd next january too

 

[tony_parkes]

Levy's getting slated on twitter.

Didn't we do the same last Jan? Sell/loan out all our squad players leaving us short in key areas.

Loaning out Townsend is ridiculous ...

Someone better tell him, he will be gutted.

 

[Maske2g]

Can understand the moaning about the joke club. Not disappointed at all as it was fully expected.

However I can't believe the amount of people moaning at the whingers. You truly are the most boring people on the internet/earth.

 

[SteveH]

This is worst than last Jan, squad has been weakened especially with Townsend off:

Parker injured = we are fucked!
Bale Injured = we are fucked!
Adebayor Injured = we are fucked!
Lennon Injured = we are fucked!
Defoe Injured = we are fucked until Adebayor gets back!

We are fucked!

See what happens when the lithium runs out!

 

[tottenham28]

Gooners now having a pop on facebook:

Tottenham have put a bid for superstar striker.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Roy of the Rovers is at Shite Fart Lame finalizing his contract!!


My reply:

With a packet of sweets and his cheeky smile, guess you've heard it all before Mick

 

[Gib14]

We haven't weakened the squad

Ha ha fucking ha

 

[Yid1987]

Bill built it - Levy and Lewis destroyed it!!!!

 

[Mr Pink]

Lets be honest, if Bale or Lennon get injured we are fucked - and I mean that, no knee jerk - we are fucked, add Dembele to that as well.

I guess the management and board have more belief. I think we could of improved our options without over committing.

 

[Hitch]

Vdv was a one off. Look no one wanted a signing more than me but it ain't happening.

That deal was like a first girlfriend that Levy can never get over. Not gonna happen again. She was the one.

 

[rupert miller]

We have had to sell to buy for the last few windows now, and we will sell Bale for 40 odd mill in the summer and spend 40 odd mill on replacements

 

[HappySpur]

We have lost our best player (Sandro) to injury and Scott Parker has been shit since he returned so we are weaker.

Well unless Levy went out and fucked up Sandro's knee, how exactly did he weaken the squad? An injury weakened the squad. I will admit that.

Levy has shit to answer for, but not the shit being spouted here.

 

[doom]

levy has not promised a striker and these negotiations are supposed to be secret. also the committee have probably set upper limits to any bids and if a player costs more then we wont buy - simple! blame the ITK's or their sources if you feel let down by high hopes.

 

[felmani26]

It will be interesting the political fallout of this transfer window and the relationship between the 'committee' and AVB.

Squads a bit lighter now but like others have said, I'm intrigued as to how the likes of Pritchard, Mason and Townsend will do out on loan.

 

[talkshowhost86]

We have lost our best player (Sandro) to injury and Scott Parker has been shit since he returned so we are weaker.

Yes and the way Levy injured Sandro was pretty daft.

Christ on a bike.

 

[Flynn]

Turning into 'damp squid' deadline day :-(

Damp Squib

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

So what happened to all the 1-2 definitively from 95% of the ITK's and other options if we failed with LD? 36 mins left and not even an utter or someone. We've let Townsend Pritchard and Mason go. Severe lack of cover and for bench.

This isn't knee jerk. AVB, the fans have been misled

 

[Beni]

?

Do I spell it out for you?? Will give him the summer to get a striker, back the manager before deciding whether I think its best we got someone with more money.

 

[nedley]

Well get the fuck outta this thread and leave me to moan.

* that was said with my tongue firmly in Jordan's cheeks.

 

[nav007_2000]

Ladies and gentlemen
This is what you call Levy Time

Making bids on last day that always fall short

 

[Teddy Klinsmann]

When is the last time we didn't sign someone on TD day?

 

[sweyid]

So... we're not signing anyone? I'm off to bed...

 

[bertievogts]

Lack of width if Lennon or Bale get injured is big concern, but Townsend is behind Dempsey/Sig and probably now Holtby being pushed out wide on one side in terms of starting, so suppose it makes sense for him to go. But would have kept him as an impact sub... It'll be up to our full backs to provide more width now Benny's back (rather than Naughton cutting inside), just hope Adebayor comes home in the mood to attack crosses.

 

[GetSpurredOn]

I'm not too bothered Damaio has fallen down, he may have been good for us, but in truth, for my own benefit I never believed we'd pull it off to start with. Not sure if it is Levy has been arsing about over fees, or if Inter are the ones playing up.
My only frustration is the fact we have now spent too much time chasing shadows to get a replacement. I suppose we still have just under an hour, but it's not looking promising. The supposed cash we have bid for Damiao would have been more than enough to secure Negredo days ago.
The real downer is, once again I feel we have weakened our squad just as we enter the final phase of the league campaign. Holtby in is a big plus, but losing Sandro to injury counters that. Losing Jenas is no loss, but loaning Townsend and Falque, plus even Pritchard who may have been next in line, means we have no natural options for cover on the wings, so we#ll have to play players out of position forcing a change of style. I suppose we do still have a £17m England winger on our books as an option... I'm still worried by our striker options, since Defoe obviously has an ongoing problem, and Adebayor has not been able to replicate last season's form yet. Hudd has once again slipped through the net.
