Looks like SaintsWeb is thriving with ITKs. Can we buy them too?

Hardly difficult. They have 30000 fans and I'd say 1% of them probably work directly or indirectly for the club or their staff.

Jay Rodriguez scored 15 goals last season in the EPL from the wing, what more do some of you want?

Griezmann only got 1 more in La Liga & most would be creaming themselves over him

'Harry Hotspur' seems to think Shiny is done.

Not sure how reliable.

Put a link in player thread.

[edit]ok, by the chuckles I take it HH is a jackass then? Oops. Anyway, keeps the fire stoked, even if it's just a piece of scrunched up old newspaper thrown onto it.

There's not a solitary ITk that can claim any kind of credit for the rapidity in which these deals seem to have crept up.
Or the papers, they've all been quoting £27m for days on end.

Literally an hour before this broke I wrote up that Ari Gold had said we'd done a lot of work on Rodriguez; he implied nothing more, at that point there was NOTHING doing in the ITK world regards either player.

Fascinating, and again the best ITK is coming out of the clubs we're dealing with and zero from our end.
Been that way all summer.

Levy has shut down the ITK.

Send this to my boss please!

I might just get that promotion I've been crossing my toes for!

That being said, the fact that I caught him watching porn recently has seen mean navigate my way through the field quite nicely recently, albeit unexpectedly to some colleagues lol :)

But, you are constantly on the SC ITK thread. This is administered by @A&C, whose sexual preferences are there to see by all. Therefore, surely, you are also watching porn.

Meh, who I'm a kidding...yes I can have a few windows on the go, admittedly.

But this place is addictive during the summer window!!

Have to say I just love the banter from a lot of people on here.

Agree. We sell bale for 85 mill and go into meltdown, they sell there whole team! So sad

Can't remember anything like this happening to a Premier League team in my life time. Villa sold/released the core of a decent team over the course of two seasons but shit..

Poor Saints fans.

I know it's speculative because we haven't seen the price yet, but one the gripes I, and probably all of us have had with Levy over the years is that he's not very good at weighing the intangible costs of failing to complete a deal. For example in the case of Moutinho not spending a couple of million extra to ensure the deal got over the line before the window closed probably ended up costing us far more due to the ill-will it stirred up between AVB and the management almost before his tenure had even begun.

If we do get this deal done perhaps it's a sign that he's had an epiphany and realised that his ruthless cold-blooded approach to transfers can sometimes cost us as much as it saves us?

Credit to the club hierarchy, if the news about MS and JR are true. They've run a very tight ship with almost no leaks. I guess the Willian saga from last season has taken it's toll.

As for the players themselves... not sure what to make of it. I think they're pretty good. And I'm assuming at this stage that our favorite Brazilian clown prince is outta here. Shame, as I really do love him.

So, we would now have Capoue, Dembele, MS and Paulihno vying for two spots. I'm down with that.

What next? A CB would be lovely. A LWF would be cool too... but I think that's where JR will fill in once healthy. In the interim, we have enough cover between: Lennon, Chadli, etc. I even think Mousa could play there if needed.
