you can't learn anything about a player in 3-5 matches at the world cup.

of course you can, like where he plays , his pace, if he can shoot, is he direct, has he an eye for a pass etc

i would say we have signed a lot of players who have been scouted for less than 5 games

I'm glad as well.

Would rather J Rodriguez in January and put all our effort into MM and MS this window.

I would like Depay now, and if necessary we can still go in for Rodriguez in Jan, if he recovers ok.

There's only one way to decide.......

Well, didn't JJ suggest he is one of players we're looking for. As for The Goat bit, should we read there is nothing at all regarding Depay or nothing at all regarding yesterdays stories, offer, swap etc.?

I read it as there is nothing at all in the stories that a deal had been done (with Chadli going the other way).

But the Goat is a mystical beast so who knows what he's getting at?

Same here, I read it as nothing has happened (yet), not that nothing is going to happen.

Personally I'm happy with where we're at. Ideally getting Musacchio will be a plus. As for getting Schneiderlin and Depay, in an ideal world yes, but even as worst case, we still have Sandro and Chadli in their roles, which is not a heartbreaker is it.

As for Depay, I think that may be tied in to Southampton supposedly telling us no way we're getting Schneiderlin AND Rodriguez.

I understand that Depay will be turning out for PSV in tonight's Europa League qualifying tie against Austria's SKN St Polten. Do we let him get cup tied if we are seriously interested in the lad? I would think not, so that leads to a conclusion its not advanced at all.

Depay is 20 years old so does not affect the 25 man squad which is great... would think lots of room to increase his value also... Townsend, Chadli and Lennon gonna have to step up big time with all this competition...

And another one
Who: Hertyid
When: 7th August
Where: COYS

On Depay:

Not to dismiss others but I have heard nothing on this and would be surprised to see Chadli leave

The Goat and HertYid have both stated in the ITK thread that nowt seems to be going on. Not doubting their words at all (on the contrary: between journos and those guys my money is on our own) but, as smokescreens go, this is an absolute belter!!! :ROFLMAO:

Sky Sports: There is genuine interest from Tottenham Hotspur in Netherlands winger Memphis Depay, Sky Sports understands. However, it may have to be a straight cash bid to PSV Eindhoven as it is understood that Nacer Chadli would not be keen on being a makeweight in the deal.

Surely one of townsend or chadli would have to leave to make this remotely viable we can't be 3 or 4 deep in every postion and maintain a happy squad

Most of the latest ITK seems to suggest that we are not interested in Depay, all roads really do seem to point to Jay Rod.

It is like the Greizmann stories. Papers were adamant we had bid but every other ITK was like NO!

Well it does seem we are looking at the LwF position. I think this depends on Townsend going to QPR.
