Thanks for the update.

As much as one can ever tell with these things, this does feel like typical deal about to be done posturing from both sides. Brentford leak that Chelsea are interested (which is an easy leak as Chelsea are interested in every single player on the planet) and we leak that we're also looking at other options.

Both clubs know they want the deal to happen, in our case we want the player but there are other (probably less good) options out there. Brentford want the deal to happen but feel if they apply a bit of pressure they'll get a bit more money.

Unless Chelsea actually come with a serious bid within a day or two then clearly Brentford will need to close out negotiations with us.

I reckon this gets announced as a funtime Friday deal.
Or 7-10 days

POK is a Spurs fan passing on info. Don't ever actually see him trying to be a hero.

It may not be information for this section of the site, but if you take a step back he's just a Spurs fan who you might be in a Spurs bar with or stand next to in the ground. Maybe it's me getting older, but I don't see any reason to be mean to the bloke or direct any particular ire towards him.

COYS, Stoofio.

You've clearly missed a lot of his self-satisfied posts then plus his attempts to suggest that he is an agent working at high levels to justify his ITK or opinions and belittle those who question him.

It feels like he's clearly doing it for the likes and follows now, and because he knows the purple/gold crew will completely meltdown. And because he likes people thinking he's ITK at the top table.

I only ever see him mention non league players or retweet them. Never seen him do that, if he doesn’t know something he just answers “don’t know”. But, he should know better than that tweet this morning, it just screamed attention seeking. It was obviously one to ignore.

That’s because they are his clients.

Get your shitty stick ready, his defenders will be here in no time to start an argument with you.
Wasn’t POK’s inside source rumoured to be Hitchen, and since his departure he’s been not much more than a tap in merchant/cover all bases?

fwiw okeefe mentioned that it could be baldy posturing to get Brentford to lower the fee
Levy wastes so much time and money playing silly buggers like this. Serious capital allocators, which he purports to be, do not do this on every single deal. Sometimes it is much more important to get it done.

It is partly for optics, partly improving relationships but most importantly because we have a lot of fucking work to do this window and we need to get deals done so we can get on and do the next one.

I'd like to hope that we can work on more than one deal at time!

The outright disdain for any other "ITK" source on this forum is possibly the most annoying thing about it. And insanely hypocritical.
