The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - THE SHAKEDOWN EDITION 24th July 2014

If we are contemplating selling Vlad we must either believe his back problem is chronic or believe he is a CB version if Gomes, who, no matter how well he is performing, is always liable to cost you a goal.

All possible, but I think it may come from his end if it's true. He may be quite disappointed/upset at the fact we seem to be looking at first choice RCB options after selling Daws and thereby overlooking him.

You folks may remember there was some ITK from back in April or May that said several players wanted out. Wouldn't be entirely surprised if Sandro and Chiri were within that number if they did end up departing.

He's a journalist? For who?

Oh sorry, thought you meant stobart. I have no idea what gards does

That was before the managerial changes, though? I took that to be related to the pre-Pochettino age?

JJ seemed to be saying on twitter that we view Griezmann as a 1 in 3 game player and a "big name" but not consistent enough, and that Depay was more likely. Not sure I agree with the assessment but I'd be happy with Depay as well.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned but I believe it is Roma who are being linked with Vlad. They have just signed David Astori from Cagliari. Are they after another centre back? If so are they selling Benatia for a lot of money. Seen links for him to all and sundry including us & Chelski. Where has Baldini been recently or am I just trying to invent a story that doesn't exist. Maybe I could get a job on a tabloid?

 

[Daredevil]

I'd be surprised and disappointed to see Vlad leave this window, especially as with that back injury Poch won't have been able to properly work with or assess him.

 

[FreddieYid]

And i'll introduce you as 'dantheyid' who has just created an account to get around a ban.

Is this the most laughed at post in SC history?

 

[Chezaspur]

Looking forward to some more dantheyid type drama today.......

Oops supposed to be here for the ITK.
Surely not Sandro AND Vlad .

Didn't he literally sign a new deal on Monday??!!!

 

[Wellspurs]

That's ridiculous. If people can't afford to help, they shouldn't be shamed. And listing totals only creates an arbitrary pecking order that is undeserved and not good for those that run this place.

We know this because it was done on the old software.

I didn't want a running total just an acknowledgment of being a donor however large or small.
I would think most can afford a couple of quid? If we lose SC we will all be losers.
Today is pay day for many so if you can spare a few quid please help out.

 

[SpartanSpur]

seeing capoue's passing ability still makes me confused: what will schneiderlin add?

Leadership
Great attitude
Work Rate
Equal if not better tackling and passing
Managers trust
Full understanding of the managers philosophy
Homegrown status
Better Injury Record
Better understanding of English football

A few things.

Loved the dantheyid crack last night. A&C must truely have shares in a vaseline factory because that boy would well and truely fucked up the arse.

 

[CrankyPants90]

He was standing up to the Townsend bashers...felt a bit sorry for him but he wouldn't let it go lol

Not really different from Blake with his Vorm stance, or the rest of the world against Blake. Feel sorry the chap. He is right to feel anguished a bit.

I think you are confusing his opinion with the clubs personally.

Yeah, but apart from that, what will Schneiderlin add?

"JJ seemed to be saying on twitter that we view Griezmann as a 1 in 3 game player and a "big name" but not consistent enough"

So I'm saying it's the club's opinion. That would seem to be the rationale for not being in for him. If the club thought he was brilliant then we would most likely be interested in him wouldn't we?

 

[Drexl]

Feel sorry the chap

I don't, he got 'the eye' so if he got banned after that it means he ignored the eye, an SC member must have lived on the moon last few days to not know about the eye and the rules that go with it, made his bed let him lie in it

 

[jedimonkey]

Blake was moaning about a player we had ITK on. We've had no Townsend ITK.

A&C has said in the first post of the thread he is clamping down on this stuff because of what went on over the weekend and the start of the week and this thread has been better for it. It's been good enough for everyone else but dan still went on.

And then to moan about it like a five year old is a joke.

The Vorm discussion was related to ITK. Dan was talking about Townsend in the "Transfer Thread"??? Someone should tell him this is the "ITK" thread!
