What the actual funk?

 

[Japhet]

Maybe a reason for Poch being miserable.

 

[Bilko]

At the moment I'm not bothered-whatever

 

[archiewasking]

Didn't ITK say Toby and Poch couldn't both stay at the club? I can't fathom how this can be true unless Poch is off. And yet Jan is left out while Toby keeps being picked. The whole thing is beyond me.

 

[John48]

He's another one that wants out, so I can see him doing an Eriksen, nothing.

 

[rossdapep]

So much is confusing right now...

Hope he does indeed stay and hope it's what the manager wants too.

 

[carpediem991]

I want him to stay badly.
Whatever happened aside the pitch, he is doing his business alright every time he is on it. That matters.

 

[sebo_sek]

Things are getting ultra wierd. And worrying. Something's afoot

At the moment I'm not bothered-whatever

Can I coin the latest phrase that seems to crop up in converaation on the hour every hour?
'It is...what it is'

Weren't we told Poch won't stay if Alder signs a new deal?

Where was this? I missed it.

 

[Seafordian Spurs]

Where was this? I missed it.

I think (think) Hercules or another ITK said it a month or so ago during the transfer window.

Weren't we told Poch won't stay if Alder signs a new deal?

Why does he keep picking him then? And not Verts. who actually wants to Stay. All very weird.

It was from Jj so

Two scenarios either him and Poch have patched things up or the other far worse scenario that the itk continues to be the case.

 

[Locotoro]

It makes zero sense for Poch to be picking Toby over Jan and want him out of the club, zero sense!

 

[davidmatzdorf]

He's another one that wants out, so I can see him doing an Eriksen, nothing.

There's never been any suggestion that he "wants out". Just that he wants more money.

 

[davidmatzdorf]

Weren't we told Poch won't stay if Alder signs a new deal?

Makes it a bit strange that he plays virtually every match, yes? Perhaps it was malicious bullshit, like so much "ITK".

Why is anyone surprised? Alderweireld tested the market this summer, with his release clause as the hook. Result: tumbleweeds. His negotiating position has suffered accordingly.

He has two choices: wait until next summer when he can leave for free and hope there is more interest, or sign a new deal and keep playing where he's been content in footballing terms for years.

Weren't we told Poch won't stay if Alder signs a new deal?

Can anyone explain the logic of this to me?

 

[wrd]

Can anyone explain the logic of this to me?

I don't know something along the lines of don't expect Poch to stay come end of the season if Alder is offered a new deal but from where I'm sitting, Alder and Poch had issues and Alder has been an absolute pro with his performances, not once let any talk of his future affect his game and I'd have to question the stubbornness of Poch if he didn't allow Alder a second opportunity based on his professionalism.
