Here's your thread for todays ITK

Rehearsals for the shit that'll hit the fan if we don't sign anyone are going on in the Pochettino thread. So if you mention the poisoned dwarfs name in here, the axe will fall. Swiftly. We've had enough of that in here.

It seems like I ought to spam my own post! Perhaps I don't truly understand the meaning of spam my post was only what I was thinking probably what many think, but don't post. Have I got to think a particular way.

Read the rules:

http://www.spurscommunity.co.uk/index.php?threads/new-to-itk-veteran-2018-rules-please-read.131299/

THE DAILY ITK DISCUSSION THREAD - Is there for discussion of the days ITK only. Media links, stories, Player Talk/Video clips etc can be posted in the many many pages of player threads in the Transfer Rumours (TR) Forum.

Do NOT spam the thread with irrelevance, media news or your opinion on which alternative player you 'think' we should sign, just keep it related to the ITK given. NO TWITTER from ANYONE under any circumstances in the Daily ITK Discussion Thread. If you do spam the thread you'll lose your access.


If you spam this thread up with random thoughts, the thread will get locked. That means the rest of the forum loses out. This isn't a thread for general thoughts about the transfer window.

Quite clearly, when reading the thread on Twitter, JJ is saying that we can do the deal for Grealish if we want to/have the will to meet the valuation. But as of now Grealish isn’t our first choice...

I wonder if he means that Grealish isn’t our first choice at that position, or just in general..

I am sure in the whole mess of things that we have already had clear ITK that Grealish was not the top name we wanted in that position, hence why we have not pulled the trigger on the deal

I will be watching to see what unfolds. I said ‘fasten your seatbelts’ for a reason. And I have shared it behind closed doors. If anyone honestly believes Poch signed his contract with no assurances of spend (150), you are welcomed to think what you want.

I will leave it upto the soothsayers. I reserve my council, and see what transpires. I am between optimistic-pessimistic. I have seen so many changes and contradictions, it is unreal. May I make it clear. I refer not to ITK’s, but what we thought was fine, then not, and outright denials, which is very dishonest.

I'm a bit lost now, but it sounds like it's either going to be a brilliant few days or an absolute train wreck.

I read that just to say Poch was promised spending.
I did too. And no offense to the ITK poster, but I struggled to make sense of the last paragraph, no matter how many times I read it. Hopefully someone much smarter and less dyslexic than myself will convey his meaning.
My muddled translation was something along the lines of... things might work out or not, as it’s hard to tell as there’s been a lot of misinformation from the club and others, making it difficult to discern the truth on a few different things... be it what was promised, who they’d bring in, who was available, how much was available, if there were risks... etc. But like I said, that was my translation.

I don’t really know what to make of any of it. Between optimistic and pessimistic? Is that good?

You're not alone, for a moment i wasn't sure if it wad a cryptic. Maybe other's can explain if its good or bad.

(Fasten seat-belts) I think that's Herc's way of saying no-one at the club has a clue what will actually happen next week (therefore nothing is looking nailed on) and it's going to be a mad scramble over the next 5 days.

Still can't shake that bad feeling.

Sorry mate, I don't understand any of that....
Poch seems to have rolled out the last dice he had today by rolling out a development squad today. Next 6 days decides the season for us.
