The Weekend ITK Discussion Thread 18th/19th July 2015

[cliff jones]

I still hope the reason we haven't tied up Song is we haven't completely given up on either rabiot or the german prospects. McCarthy has been sounded out and is agreeable that's why he keeps coming up in ITK talk.

I'd take Hernandez up front because I think he can come on and turn home games where the bus is parked in front of the visitors goal- a huge problem last season- just two more home wins last season and CL would have gone all the way to the wire. But he don't play wide so then it would be Lamela and Townsend again for right side which does not inspire. Better a punt on Bera, I'd have thought.

I'm worried. if the cabbage is Done, it's been left in the water for too long now and it's going to turn to mush. Like Christmas and my mums Sprouts.

Is it not possible that there are 4 players in the mixing pot? 2 biggies (done DM and a Striker) and two potentials?

Told last night nothing imminent regarding incomings, but deals are being worked on, so could change quickly. Outs are looking more likely though and we could see as many as three more go this week. Tim is pushing for Ade and has leverage due to his best players being sold, but Ade's demands are criminal both from what he wants from us and what he thinks he's worth to them. I do think this is doable but will take some movement from all parties.

Sounds about right. L'Equipe reporting Stambouli has now signed with PSG.

Just remember that in Irish parlance the cabbage is your swede (your head), and the Irish say that the cabbage is 'no good until it whitens', or basically gets old. So I suspect that the unknown cabbage is an Irish guy who is either old ( Mick McCarthy) or young, yet experienced. You know who!

Maybe this is why Moses is being mentioned. It would take a parting if the Seas to make the Ade deal happen and someone high up said We need Moses!

Thanks for the update Trix. I guess Stambouli is one of the 3. I would assume one is Vlad. The other I guess is up for debate. Bobby, Lennon, Andros, Dembele or Ade

Hopefully Stambouli, Dembele and Ade.

When it comes to the whole "done/sorted" topic, I suppose it can mean that we've agreed with one of the parties, maybe the player, and have yet to agree with the other party, maybe the club.

 

[Scott Spur]

Shame it never worked out for Stambouli, I thought he showed the odd flash of quality..... hope he does well at his next club.

 

[SpartanSpur]

What is to misunderstand ? Done means Done and clearly it is not done. Jasper has misled us either because of poor use of words or he misunderstood the situation on this possible deal.

You are seemingly misunderstanding my whole post and the accepted method of ITK comprehension to be fair.

Plus he said sorted and not done, which are not the same word especially when taken in ITK form. Sorted in the modern (slang?) connotation can also mean 'in hand'.

 

[smudger]

Meh. Berahino and McCarthy do not excite me one bit. Hope someone at the club reads this post.

Oh and if, by the extremely off chance, that Daniel does...1) Get the fuck off your ass and bring me Shurrle, Pedro or De Bruyne. Pogba will do too. And 2) Fucking hell, baldy. Dig into those pockets and donate 8 years worth of costs and upgrades to SC.

Ha ha someone has been playing champ man this weekend haven't they lol

Out, Stambouli, Chiriches, Ade, Soldado, Townsend, Lennon, Carroll. Total = £50m?
In. Moses, Berahino, McCarthy. Total = £48m?

Maybe? Or we might get Cambiosso on a free.

I like the idea of it but it seems a bit football manager/FIFA to me

 

[Kaboul'sForehead]

As someone that wanted to give Ade another chance, recommended he would make a good captain, proposed he would have a solid season; I think Ade has been despicable in his actions. He is a lazy and greedy **** who should be ashamed of how he has behaved. Fuck off Emmanuel.
