The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The A&C Gets Committed Edition 17th July 2013

[Blackrat1299]

There's a stark difference in co-operating in trying to verify and flat out refusing.

Remember though with any ITK you should be applying salt.

I would like something to apply salt to!

Had my 6 monthly heart monitor results last thursday that said I had 8,000 extra beats on the first day.
if I ever saw " spurs locked in talks with erik lamela " on sky sports yellow bar I reckon I could double that in 2 minutes

 

[Jamturk]

Looks like Chelsea would sell....

Not to us.

Anyone else falling for the "I'm the boss, get rid of big player trick"?

 

[dondo]

Really? would be v supprised if they sold him.
Would be to bigger fish than us if they did though

 

[Mr Pink]

So we can allow unverified info from COYS etc to be posted in here, and also unverified info from other members on here, but not Spurvert because he didnt want to disclose any info about his source? Sour grapes if you ask me.

Its really not difficult to understand. He's refusing to give information which enables the mods to verify him. The likes of LLM, aren't...its just a delicate situation as far as he is concerned and they're working on a way to verify him so his stuff can go in the RO.

 

[Gbspurs]

Not to us they wouldn't.

But they will to Utd? I suspect they don't see us as rivals more than Utd. Anyway this isn't the place for this convo but Mata has mega respect for AVB, siting him as the main reason he joined Chelsea.

 

[hughy]

The sun has sent people in here utterly delusional. Whoever suggested a bid for Mata, whether it be a 'cheeky' one or not, hang your head in shame because it ain't gonna happen.

It's actually a bit embarrassing someone would think there's even a chance it would come off.

 

[chrissivad]

Unless we get some ITK on Mata can it go else where

 

[Grapo2001]

Fair enough, its the mods call. They run this town. I believe Spurvert gives good honest info and would be a shame if others missed out if it gets buried in the player threads.

remember months ago when the stories appeared in Marca that Mourinho was joining Chelsea and Mata would go? No one believed it, I thought it was spiteful from the Real Madrid press because he was leaving and had pissed off the established players in their side.

Could it have been true?! Selling Mata would be amazing given how good he was for them last season. Maybe he can go to Barcelona and replace Thiago/Fabregas.

I agree with you, but..this aint the place for this!

Struggling to see how we would fit all these players in? Do we know we are going 4-3-3? Targetting Lamela screams to me that we think Bale is off next year tbh

Quit discussing Spurverts info!

Ok ok, I will stop now...

 

[Bobbins]

Bentekkers is the worst nickname ever...

I usually hate player nicknames but I like this one! A lot better than junk like modders and verts...

Fortunately squire nobody is asking you.

One of the reasons we try to verify sources is to try and stop people on here getting led astray by false info. If someone is posting info on another site they are not our worry. When someone signs up here though, they are.

 

[WestBelfast Spurs]

Because it would be a massive waste of time

JM doesn't rate him he offered him and 10milion for Rooney so I think it wouldn't be, all this talk of Chelsea and Spurs relationship AVB and JM are good friends

Sounds like sour Grapos to me. Only kidding

 

[Scutch]

May I suggest in the fucking bin?

 

[worcestersauce]

We'll just drop the Bent and he'll be ekkers!
I can hear it now "ow the ekkers he scored from there" yay!

 

[wiggo24]

I'm pretty sure they WERE good friends, but I've read both their biographies, and JM apparently stopped talking to AVB, when he left to become a manager at academia, they haven't spoken to each other since...even AVB himself has aditted it. Mourinho thought it was a betrayal of trust when AVB didn't want to go to Inter with him...

Nonetheless, if there a chance at a deal for Mata, I'd assume we wouldn't be the only ones in the race, and it sounds even more unlikely than Lamela...would love it though of course.

Twitter should pay the EPL some sort of commission - this time of year even non-twitterers will be browsing.

I am still able to resist, occasionally looking at specific accounts to read a specific "tweet", but it's not a verb and it pisses me off, with the power of a thousand suns, that it's now de rigueur to invent verbs left, right and centre.

Google = NOT a verb
Tweet = NOT a verb

Internetting = technically i like this one - it's a simpletons verb and it works, but the other two can go f&ck themselves.
