The Weekend ITK Discussion Thread 24/25 August 2013

[tiger666]

Eriksen to Pool you mean? Not surprised. They will have a very good attack, better the ours unless we keep Bale which we won't. I am starting to wonder who else we could go for. Would love to see a mega bid for Ozil or Pastore but I am sure it won't happen and I am sure they would say no.

He means Bale.

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

I'm really hoping that isn't the case.

What's the betting Roma suddenly start requesting more if it does get announced and Lamela's price completely spirals?

We'd expect our board to do the same so yeah.


This has the potential to be a car crash final week if we don't play this perfectly. Letting Bale go before any other deals are sewn up is ridiculous.

 

[Geordie_Yid]

I heard the same. Its obviously happening this weekend guys

As long as we confirm Lamela first then I'm happy for it to happen this weekend

 

[easley91]

Think he's over there so once Lamela is announced/done on Monday/Tuesday we give him the go ahead. Makes sense for him to stay with his agent in Marbella then travel to Madrid once our deal with Lamela is done.

 

[CowInAComa]

It's kind of getting to the time of night that you really should just neck a few jagerbombs & satisfy yourself with the fat Bird in the corner who's starting to get better looking

Im going to assume that Real Madrid are the subject matter in that analogy.

At least I hope its an analogy. Its 2.30pm.

 

[mil1lion]

I hope if Bale signs we are getting Lamela and Coentrao first

 

[mrlilywhite]

If Bale is allowed to goe before we sign replacements then all my faith is lost in Levy

 

[Spurs Lodge Kittens]

There's no real ITK on Eriksen is there? Just our wishful thinking??

At the very most he was a throwaway comment by Jasper. Seems like he's about 6th choice

If Bale is allowed to goe before we sign replacements then all my faith is lost in Levy

If Levy sells Bale to Arsenal for 1 pound and then rapes my mother and murders my father, all my faith will be lost in Levy.

I'll wait to see if it happens first tho.

 

[Waiwonder]

.......and yet out of all the signings the least needed, ironic really

well the way I see it...AVB wants to be challenging on 4 fronts so needs a excellent squad depth and versatility. considering parker, hudd and livermore have gone, we've replaced those three players with 1 player in capoue which in my opinion is smart business. not to mention he can play at cb as well.

Lamela is all set for a Monday medical probably the day Bale gets announced by Madrid. Give it til Wednesday and Arsenal will unveil Lamela.

 

[JaySpur]

I heard the same. Its obviously happening this weekend guys

If that's the case, then bye bye Gareth and thanks.... but I want £90m (min) before he puts their shirt on!

 

[jolegend]

Levy has been so stubborn over this deal. What makes you think he would sell before we have replacements tied up? His kot going to just sanction the bale deal just because madrid want it to happen asap.

 

[mochtas01]

chunky on COYS re Bale:

Just been told by someone that he's in Marbella

Not sure if it means anything, but thats where he is


Supposedly BEN is saying the same

Tough being a football player! I read a few months back, he has a house there. I would not read too much into it. RM still not shown their green yet?! They're desperate. I just hope Levy knows that.

 

[doom]

And when Bale goes, he will likely be replaced by Lamela and Eriksen who both combined, are more than capable matching Bales assists and goals last season.

Yes but it's using one player more

 

[mochtas01]

I still think we'll end up with FC. Stronger back four than last year.

 

[CowInAComa]

Definitely, this how I see it.

And when Bale goes, he will likely be replaced by Lamela and Eriksen who both combined, are more than capable matching Bales assists and goals last season.

As long as he is replaced as suggested and THEN goes, I could live with that.

Not the other way around.

 

[Geordie_Yid]

Anyone seen the pic Benny put on his Instagram today??? Says he's in London and not France.... 'Assouekottooff - Instagram account'

Sorry Jasper

 

[bomberH]

We should keep hold of Bale for the NLD then let him go when he's scored 6 against Arsenal. What with Lamela scoring twice too it'd be a nice way to end the window...

 

[RobjDerby]

Levy has been so stubborn over this deal. What makes you think he would sell before we have replacements tied up? His kot going to just sanction the bale deal just because madrid want it to happen asap.

How do you know Levy has been stubborn? We don't know that, he's not spoken about it at all.

Bale has not spoken for over a month, or played either.

RM are selling shirts and building a stage before its even announced, not exactly playing hard ball are we?
