I'm safe in the knowledge that my unequivocal support and loyalty is to the Club at the end of the day, not to Harry Redknapp. He's open to criticism and praise, and to be honest he merits both of late. If you don't think so that's fine, but all this ramming down the throat that its all a load of bollox gets a little tiring.

Well you're entitled to your opinion as I am mine. I'm sure your more than aware I couldn't give a flying fuck who I upset and the whole thing pisses me right off. And 'If I don't think' what? How many times do I have to say I'm ok with genuine criticism, maybe that's why you're annoyed at me repeating myself, it's because you don't read my posts in the first place. And today is the first time I've criticised Harry ITK, so 'ramming it down your throat' is slightly exaggerated isn't it.

Anyway, I'll keep on and on if I feel it's necessary. I can't bring myself to give a shit if you or anyone else think it's tiring, and i'm sure you'd feel the same way about me if I criticised your 'on the fence' posts. But I'll try keep it in another thread. Sorry mods.

I noticed that The Goat said we are still talking to others in Holland. Was it confirmed that the 'others' are actually Leandro nd Remy?

The previous post on this didn't specify Holland - so people thought Leandro in Denmark or Remy in Marseille.

I read this as now in Holland...

Not sure why people are bemoaning the lack of ITK discussion, you know the drill by now and what to expect, but I'll round it up for you all.

As always... Theres rumour and contradiction at every turn and really no-one is quite sure what the hell is going on. The end.

Now back to whatever y'all folks wanna discuss. Carry on (y)

Ok, knock yourself out.

Holland, eh?

Chadli, Skekelenberg, Toivonen, & Eriksen - potentially any of these.

Anyone else?

Luuk de Jong, Eriksen, Bas Dost, Mertens & Strootman are the other standout talents in Holland IMO

Maybe it isn't even a player, de Boer?

Kinell! £12m a yr on his wages alone. That's well over 10%, almost 15% of our entire wage budget on one fricking player.:confused:

As for others in Dutchland - it's about fecking time we went all 'puff puff give'. Great conveyer belt of talent still. Bargains to be had.

The more I think about it, the more I think the other player in Holland is Luuk De Jong.

A cheaper alternative to Leandro I guess.

could we be waiting for Hazard's final decision before going for erikson, which is delaying the Vertonghen deal.....

More likely waiting for the friendly this weekend and checking out that he is not too fit to join our centreback brigade

Erikson makes no sense simply because he plays in Rafa's position and I don't think you can accommodate both in the same side.

Logic would say we will announce that we havevagreed a fee with ajax subject to a medical just prior to the England Belgium game. IF he gets seriously injured deal will be called off I guess. How funny would it be if hazard gets acserious injury by Ashley cole!!

But bearing in mind the propensity with which VDV's hamstrings break, Eriksen would get more than his fair share of games.

Even funnier if it was Parker.

I very much doubt Ajax would sell us more than one player. They've just won the league and will be in the CL next season. So they will want to strengthen. Vertonghen only has a year left on his contract so they don't have choice but to consider offers.
