The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The Aero Edition 9th May 2014

[Archibald&Crooks]

​

Good morning codpieces.

I know you're all wondering how things have been with me since the January window so here's a quick round-up.

The doctor told my wife to introduce more greens to her diet. The silly cow has now filled the cupboards up with mint Aeros.

And that's about it really. Unless you include the malicious rumours that were doing the rounds saying that the fashion guru who designed the G-string had the idea after seeing Mrs A&C in a normal bikini.

Seeing as there's been some EyeTeeKay I might as well round that up for you as well. I suppose. Sigh.

First up yesterday was The Goat. Loves a snippett…..

The Goat hears a few snippets, some of which we already knew or is pretty obvious but nevetheless, here it is.

Tim and Levy are barely speaking. He won't be our manager next season.
The dressing room is very unhappy and some players have been frozen out entirely for reasons they don't understand.
Ade is off to Monaco at the end of the season.
We've had an approach from PSG for Lloris. No idea what our response has been.
Verts wants out. Don't know if we've had any offers for him though.

Interesting stuff, to which The Journalist added…

I totally ackowedge what the goat has said. To say there is unrest at the cub is an understatement. Many pleyers have questioned the clubs direction and a number of players have made noises about wanting out. Lloris wants out for a start and a number of players will follow

And that was it.

Oh and finally....

Last night Mrs A&C went through my mobile phone without me knowing

"Who the hell is Debbie?" she asked.

As my mind raced, I suddenly realised that If I told her the truth then she would probably leave me.

"Debbie?" I said, sipping on a glass of wine. "She's just some fit bird who I fucked on Steve's stag do."

Thatshallot.

Oh and have you donated yet? I don't do all this out of love you know. ****s.

Hello precious.

Really not up for bashing Lloris - he is too good to waste his time not playing at the top, it's all good and well attracting players to the club but evidently it needs to be under the right pretense. Feel we've let a few players down with our stagnation this season (and some have let us down). Can't see an unhappy Hugo hanging around.

 

[Sasha75]

What's the goat been having for his food, so much info ha ha nothing the goat has said suprises me, typical Levy and well lets not go there for Sherwood. So the only good news I've had today is that Spurs are playing Celtic here in Helsinki in a friendly.....

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

Lloris aint going to Monaco. He is a Nice fan.

He even said as much in an interview after joining us.

Basic football rivallry knowledge required.

 

[Tucker]

Re today's info, doesn't Kabouls contract run until the end of the next season?

 

[TheChosenOne]

I don't believe you.

Sipping wine indeed. Put you down as an ale man.

 

[AX-Spur]

Re today's info, doesn't Kabouls contract run until the end of the next season?

Yes it does.

 

[Tucker]

Yes it does.

Can't see him being released then.

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

Let's imagine that FdB in fact could convince Vertonghen to stay. Not only that, but he could also bring out the best of that 7 goals-a-season Super-Jan from last year. Then... isn't FdB worth a steep transfer fee? Surely it must be cheaper to get FdB than to sign a replacement for Jan?

 

[0-Tibsy-0]

Sherwood, get out of the Club.

 

[Gedson100]

Maybe Kaboul's on one of those 4+1 type deals that a lot of our players seem to be on & there's a point at the +1 mark where it can be ended. Saying that, surely Levy wants a fee. Giving players away? Doesn't happen very often round here!

On Kaboul, i've been doing some analysis for an end of season article i'm writing, and whilst my eyes have shown me concerning things about Kaboul, the stats of the matter, however which way I generate them, tell me he's doing just fine.

So i'd not be advocating releasing him; particularly if Verts was to go.

Sherwood could start a fight in a phonebox.

 

[harry's chin]

i dunno about Kaboul, any half decent medical will pick up the fact his legs are made of jelly

i wouldn't be surprised to see Levy bin him with no fee

 

[thinktank]

It's gonna be fascinating hearing the extent of Sherwood's 'scorched earth' tenure once he's gone.

No wonder Levy is dithering over a new appointment. This is his last chance imo...one more fuck up and the torches get lit for real.

 

[Shadydan]

Need to get the manager sorted ASAP which is important if we want these players who want out to stay.

 

[dagraham]

Quite depressing but not surprising news about players wanting out. I've resigned myself to Verts, Lloris and Ade going really. If Sandro or Eriksen leaves as well though I'm going to be seriously pissed off.

I don't agree with those that say that FDB must be made manager on the strength of convincing Verts to stay. At every successful club (bar those that shit money) the manager is the most important person at the club, not the CH. We should appoint the best manager we can and if Verts still wants out, then fuck him.

 

[Tucker]

Here's a quote from the big man himself http://talksport.com/sports-news/fo...oul-denies-he-contract-talks-tottenham-171865

 

[0-Tibsy-0]

Adebayor, Vertonghen, Lloris, Sandro, Capoue, will most likely be off in my opinion. Perhaps Dembele too.

Well, that's another overhaul of our squad then and we certainly won't be able to bring in players of the quality of all of them.

Edit: and Paulinho....

 

[Shadydan]

Just reading the Goat's latest ITK oh man Sherwood really brought out his inner Redknapp by playing Bentaleb over Capoue didn't he.

Levy dug himself a hole by giving him the job in the first place, the good thing is that it looks like Sherwood may leave Spurs all together, don't need people like him at this club in any capacity.

 

[Geyzer Soze]

What's this about Kaboul? Is there some eyeteekay on him that i've missed or is this just general speculation about his contract etc?

I would like to see him givne another season, he has been hit and miss this season, 1/2 fit at best for alot of it again, but he was out for a long long time. Before his major injury he was showing signs of reaching Kompany levels of awesomeness to me ... i would love to see him get a full pre season, fit, and start teh season fit and firing and see what happens. He is also a very accomplished RB iirc

I think there was ITK (In January IIRC) about him retiring at the end of the season.
