The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The Gonads on the Line Edition 30th August 2013

With all the INs and OUTs, this transfer window is the equivalent to one of bubbles sigs which we have always ridiculed

 

[-Afri-Coy-]

I woke up angry at this fucking world. I wanted to tear shit apart, throw bricks through windows, swear at old people, piss on windscreens and cause a riot.

"Where is my fucking striker??!" I shouted viciously out the window hoping the decibel level was high enough to pierce Levy's ears 11000km away. Then it hit me, Every one of my wishes from the board this transfer window has been fulfilled. Every one of the players signed is a significant improvement or excellent addition to our squad. Every position has been/will be covered. We fucking sold Huddlestone. We broke our transfer record THREE times in one window. We got another Brazilian. We finally got another Argentinian. We bought a fucking spanish striker.

How could I be angry anymore? I have always been a proud Coys supporter since there was still pooh in my underpants. I went against family tradition to support the team that called my heart. And I'm truly fucking astonished boys. This club has in a matter of weeks changed from a top 4 contender, to a possible title challenging team. We losing Bale, But who fucking cares?

This season may well be the underdog season and I feel for the first time in a long time our stars have aligned and our club is on the way to the top. Our additions have been top draw this window and I feel I am no longer dreaming but living the dream.

Thank you Baldini.

Thank you AvB.

Thank you Daniel Levy,

and Thank you Joe Lewis.

Without you 4 none of this would be possible and our prayers have finally been answered.


I will now let these greedy bastards get back to haggling you for more players whilst I, Jason G the Third, bask in the awesomeness that is now our new Squad.

I think if, at the start of the window, someone had said we'd sign:

Soldado
Lamela
Paulinho
Capoue
Eriksen
Chiriches
Chadli

then we would have all said, 'fuck off home mate you're drunk'.

And yet there is a reasonable chance that the above isn't even the final list (although I'm starting to think that Eriksen may be our final signing).

As you say...epic.

I think a lot of people would have said: who's chadli? Followed by: and chiri-what?

I never thought I'd find myself saying...

Donated £5, which to me is a fair wad - being a victim of an economic implosion and industry rupture on an island which relies on it.
Think of the parable about the beggar who gave his only coin to Jesus!
Anywhoo, how much does SC cost to run by the way?(server wise...daily) Maybe there is a link for this?

Not a single ITK related post on this whole page.... (and i know i've just added to it but only to ask that people give it a rest) not easy to wade through all this crap)

Keep a tab on the Read Only section - I'll do my best to transfer relevant info if not picked up by the astute contributors here.

Forgot to mention this in my above post thanks for reminding me seb. If our paypal system wasn't so shite I'd have dropped a few quid in the donation pot myself even though pounds/rands ratio is so shit I'd feel it a bit. When this is sorted I will put £20 in the coffers and Thank you SC for facilitating our constant need for new info, without this site my windows were a bleak dark hole of newslessness and I thank this site for being the light.

With 3 incoming hopefully, am i the only one that hope kaka isnt one of them? If kaka comes in we push eriksen to the left, which he is good, but not where hes best at

Rodrigo, coentrao, and 1 bonafide LW starter would complete the team totally. Unless avb really feels pushing eriksen out wide is better for him, then im all for it. If not, bonafide LW please

Whats wrong with Chadli, I think he`s been very good so far.

 

[felmani26]

I still don't think the magnitude of this window is being fully grasped by us. Even the simpleton optimists like me.

This. Is. Epic.

Agreed but you know we will still want more....

We always want more!

For what its worth I was chatting to JJ on that there Twittor last night and asked him if he expected any of the Medical 3 to be announced before the deadline for Sundays game and he gave a smiley reply

Some morning ITK would be nice. I hope our three musketeers are registered before 12pm today and in the squad for the NL derby. I'm guessing we would announce them, if they would be already registered...so maybe an announcement before midday?

Would be nice to have them all in the squad. Already have visions of tidy through balls from Eriksen and Lamela smashing the shit out of them like a battering ram!

Based on absolutely no knowledge of the players whatsoever (so as worthless an opinion as it is possible to imagine), I suspect that Eriksen is the one most likely to hit the ground running and make an immediate impact.

That said, I don't expect any of them to feature on Sunday.

I agree, had 2 steady games against Palace & Swansea and looked like when settled will be a fantastic addition!!

How are you going to buy beer tonight?!?!

 

[harry's chin]

I really think Levy is playing a massive game of poker at the moment, he knows full well Arsenal will go for for some Madrid cast offs and is holding back the Bale deal. He knows Madrid will not pull out of the deal they have invested too much time and effort to walk away now. Levy sitting in his leather chair whilst Baldini prepares another ivory backscratcher, is carefully watching the clock tick by with some phones sat on the desk ready to hear the words 'sell sell sell' and 'buy buy buy'

Whilst this is going on, Gareth Bale is picking some new pink pants
