Great news on Parrot. It'll be great when we have two full England International strikers in the team.

Isn't Parrot Irish?

How dare you. I've already claimed Troy for the Irish NT in advance - I called dibs!

He's winding up dougal. Who was a little annoyed that rice chose to play for england instead of ireland. Even though all his youth games were for ireland.

Thanks for enlightening me.

Sorry if I've missed ant mention of it but I have just reread Herc's ITK, am I right in thinking the well under 21 is the player whose name we don't know not Sessegnon?

Yes. We think.

itk thread closed so putting it here (and then someone moved it to the itk thread)
ali z: Quick update - we are still in pole position for Cellabos, still expect Sess brothers to happen, as widely reported we are happy to move certain players out, in comings are based on that.
I think Le Celso is ion hold while we sort out Eriksen's future, there is plenty going on. Alves seems unlikely to me not really a Poch kind of signing, although he did try and sign Stevie G, but nor he the young Zagreb kid's name have ever come up in conversations with me.

 

[BringBack_leGin]

So Ceballos, Sessx2 and anything else is up to players being shifted (GLC for CE, Rb for KT, etc)?

Sounds good to me, if we just add Ceballos and Ryan Sess on top of Ndombele we already have a strong, deep squad for next season.

Great updates. If Ceballos is a permanent option be it short term or after an initial loan I think that window is shaping up wonderfully well.

Lo Celso makes sense and the idea of both Sessegnons works for me. Cheers Dov

Not sure why I thought this... but based on earlier ITK I was under the impression that Lo Celso was not dependent on Eriksen leaving. Of course shit changes, I get that. Just wondering what's what.

 

[stonebrow]

The only reason GLC could be on hold while we sort out Eriksen is if the deal is dependant on CE leaving...like for like which isn’t what ITK’s have previously said.

 

[chrissivad]

I have reopened the thread as there is ITK to discuss, but taking if people keep wanting to take this thread off topic it will be closed again, and most likely A&C will be adding to the long list of people not able to post in here again...

 

[worcestersauce]

A slight contradiction of other ITK on the Lo Celso situation I wouldn't be surprised if we are happy for that to be thought during negotiations.

Deeply disappointing if that’s the case - as eriksen no longer wants to be here.

Unless Ceballos is thought of as the main addition.

And Lo Celso if Eriksen were to leave.

Going against the main ITK grain there.

Yeah, only thing I can think of is we are aiming for Ceballos as the player not dependent on CE being sold and Lo Celso as CE replacement. This would still be in line with the 2 in regardless of outgoings which we heard earlier.

Edit: @nedley beat me to it...

I agree although I sort of had my heart set on Lo Celso!!

Key phrase is “I Think”, it’s onions.

(Cheers Dov ??)

 

[McFlash]

I wonder whether Ali Z has Lo Celso and Ceballos mixed up.

 

[worcestersauce]

Still think he'll come and I think the latest ITK is prompted by the stories hitting today's rumour mill about Arsenal being in for Ceballos.
