ali z on stefan de vrij to snub chelsea for us in the summer: am sure this is possible davies is not great he is adequate if we play 3 cb expect wimmer out and 1 in

 

[DIEHARD]

I have a feeling we will go for maguire from Hull. He can play in a three easily and is very good going forward. I also imagine he won't cost too much

 

[DIEHARD]

What's with the doh jeez

Cant see him snubbing chelsea for us

Can't think of a more seamless transition going from Lazio to Chelsea, too.

 

[coy-spurs1882]

wimmer out? i thought poch said the vice versa...

 

[Trix]

I usually plan a day off for transfer deadline day. Not the case this time though.

Why a day when you've only needed the last 30 mins of deadline day off in the past?

Barring a catastrophic set of injuries we won't do anything and were never likely to.

We might not have the world class depth in attacking midfield but we have more than enough bodies, meaning if anyone were to come in it would take shifting at least one, maybe 2. Never going to happen

 

[Oshi]

Rather nice approaching deadline day and not freaking out about needing a new midfield or 18 Rightbacks.

Cause it hadn't been mentioned by ITK possibly.

Not sure what you mean.

Its millsey. Even he doesn't know what he means, he just sits in front of his keyboard bashing out random thoughts (amongst other things)

I've no idea whether he's on our radar but he's a decent prospect. Not ITK related though.

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Come on then @millsey

what do you mean?

 

[Deleted member 27995]

Goes to show how far we have come with how quiet on the surface this window has been!

Also nice for me as I don't have to do my update from a popular supermarket I work at either!

Surely he was only making reference to the old Levy Time adage in that he doesn't do anything until the last 30mins of a trf window...and thus ITK's wouldn't have anything to report on until then in usual window circumstances

Could also be viewed as complacency. And complacency is the root of future failure.

I'm not convinced we shouldn't actively pursue reinforcement of the squad. We still lack cover in certain areas and could upgrade others. The way we were outplayed by Man City shows that we're not invulnerable...

 

[CockOnBall]

Just to add context as to why Ali Z was asked, Lazio CB Stefan de Vrij was rumoured in the italian press to be prepared to snub interest from Chelsea in favour of joining Poch's 'revolution' at WHL. 30m the reported fee.

So talking bollocks then? If of course this is what he meant.
