The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The Get in There!/Oh Woe is Me Edition 28th August 2013

Think our low was the Willian affair. Not to mention Villa earlier in the window.

Not forgetting Benteke's about turn

 

[mil1lion]

Coentrao and Eriksen and then I can sleep at night.

and a striker to complete the dream of all transfer windows.

 

[devastated]

Still think we need another striker in too...

We're a knock to Soldado away from being back to arguing about the limitations of Defoe/Ade

jd when he came on sunday took down a long ball brilliantly and instead of having a go laid it off, I was astonished to see it

is he finally learning to bring others into the game?

 

[absolute bobbins]

You rarely get big defenders moving quickly at any time of the season.

Touche

 

[CowInAComa]

This will all be such an anti climax if we dont sign Halilovic.

 

[TheGreenLily]

Oh lighten up and just laugh at them FFS

I will laugh when we have spanked the bastards into the next century

 

[Greenspur]

Difficult to copy & paste on phone but just a little piece on him leaving Roma. With quotes from Lamela.

One would wish that GB might behave in the same way.
For a young man - well said Lamela.

 

[stormfly]

I think we should keep hold of Benny and Ade, too many changes at the moment. They plug the holes in our squad and are more than decent backup.

 

[Greenspur]

Might be his hamstring.

Or maybe a strange foot ailment.

 

[WiganSpur]

Lloris - Friedal
Walker - Naughton
Dawson - Kaboul
Vertonghen - chriches
Coentrao - Rose
Sandro - Capoue
Paulinho - Holtby
Dembele - Erikson
Lennon - Townsend
Soldado - Defoe
Lamela - Chadli

I know this isn't the place for squad speculation but this is based on itk.. AVB has stated he wants 2 for each position. The above seems realistic and bloody strong.
Leaves Ade and Siggy as rotations in / out/ or upgrades...

Only opinion but that squad is ridiculous. Genuinely. The B team would finish top 6.

Is there enough goals though..??

I think we could see Hulk instead of Lennon there if doable. Sigurdsson sold as well and Carroll loaned out. AVB likes versatile players and Hulk could play upfront as well.

Just picture Redknapp, Sky remote in hand, SSN on the box:

'Never heard of him, nope, nope, fackin who? Jamie! Who are these players all going to Spurs?'
'Dunno, Dad. Mercenaries?'
'You can't sell Bale. They've had it.'

Meanwhile in a glassy 'boardroom'/ TV studio, Sugar rages at his TV...

'Carlos Kickaballs would turn in his grave what happened to the club I built spending like loonies...'

Serenely gliding through football heaven, Bill Nicholson breaks off from training and casts a fond eye down on proceedings:

'To be the best, you need to sign the best, train the hardest and not let some jumped up little Welsh fella get above his station. He can go. The others can concentrate on the glory. Nice man that Andre, he'll go far.'

Etc etcetera

This is better than the Willian day i missed innit!?

Oh, mate, that is just about the best post I've ever read on this site.

 

[monkeynick]

Ok I've looked in th RO but can't do all 47 pages for fear of the missus walking out and I'm not cooking my own fucking tea.

Is there fresh ITK re Eriksen and the impaler or just people punting out wish lists willy nilly?

 

[Supersi32]

Damaio will be our deadline day special, AVB has made no secret of his admiration for him and Levy is obsessed with him.

 

[Living Legend Colm G]

Just one question for the learned members of SC how long can one have an erection before they should consider heading to whips cross?

I've heard of "Tugging one out"........"Spanking the monkey"........."Choking the chicken"..........."go on a date with palmela handerson"..........."battle with the Purple Helmeted Warrior of Love"............& "audition the finger puppets"........

But "Heading to Whipps Cross"........................That's certainly a new one................Props to you dear boy

Ajax have announced they have given Eriksen permission to speak to us

Eriksen stuff is in Eriksen thread and it's good news

 

[etchedchaos]

Is that no chance in him leaving or no chance he's staying? If it's the latter, a comma would come in handy there.

 

[0-Tibsy-0]

Bale most probably leaving also didn't leave people feeling ecstatic. So all good news from here-on-in please.

 

[Gedson100]

Ah 'no chance, he leaves' not 'no chance he leaves'

Gotcha.
