[Finney Is Back]

Based on what (apart from a dislike of our management)?

Werner is young. Think it is just as likely that he had a change of heart about moving to a foreign country. Nick Barmby was homesick for Hull (of all goddam awful places) when he was 24 or something.

I don't have a dislike of our management at all....

In fact if my prognosis is correct then I would say that we have done the right thing. Werner has a certain amount of promise, but would also represent a gamble in the fact that he hasn't even come close to establishing himself for Stuttgart yet. A player in that situation is worth a gamble at (say) 6 or 7 million, but probably not at twice that amount.

Werner cannot even get into the sh!tty Stuttgart side

I know it was a pre season match, but are we talking about the same side that hammered City 10 days ago?

 

[Cochise]

Can't say I like the look of Werner.

 

[Keithd]

I reckon berahino and a cm of some sort . Don't reckon it will be Kramer or bender but way cheaper version

kramer or bender? Ooooooooooh Matron!

I agree, though havent seen much of him. Would prefer Berahino, N'jie plus a midfielder

Personally I think one of Townsend dembele or lamela might and should go at end of window as well .. Along with Fazio soldado adebayor abd Lennon ..

 

[Gazza]

this window smacks of a iversen and postiga theme ...

To be fair, I'm not sure that it is the best time to be relying on very young players when you are fighting a relegation battle.... The player probably would've got more chances at Spurs by getting game time in the Europa League along with Carling and FA Cup games.

I think what has really happened here is that we have made an offer for a player that wasn't accepted by his club and we weren't prepared to increase our valuation to match Stuttgart's asking price.

Sounds like a lot of guess work to me.

That was because his old lady wanted to go back home and it was her that wore the trousers.

 

[SpursNorway]

Who: The Goat
When: 12th August
Where: SC

Nothing new i'm afraid but The Goat hears from a source that Fazio could be leaving soon.

 

[SpursNorway]

Who: Trix
When: 12th August
Where: SC

Trix: Looking likely Carroll will go

 

[Gazza]

Adebayor could be leaving too. ...

 

[Gutter Boy]

but Stuttgart really are abysmal, every season recently they seem to be fighting a relegation battle. He probably feels that if he cant break through there yet then why move to England and try to get into a top 5 team in the PL. Thats what probably made him change his mind. Better off progressing at lowly Stuttgart for the time being.

Oduwa wasn't getting in Luton's side last season and Pritchard was in the second tier.

It doesn't mean they don't have big futures, or even that they can't do immediate jobs for us (see Mason jumping straight from Donny Rovers to our first choice CM).

 

[Gutter Boy]

Adebayor could be leaving too. ...

Not for read only where the journalists can read it, but Lennon and Soldado will be on the move soon

i didnt say Werner wont make it, just that he probably prefers trying to get back in the Stuttgart side for now

Grey Fox on N'Jie: Almost there with this one, but concerned about news of other targets, seems they will be late ones if then

brick calm down calm down ( in scouse voice) I didn't say the targets won't get done just more complicated than me and other ITK we're led to believe a couple of weeks ago.

Before you buy your Levy voodoo dolls , can I make it crystal clear this is not down to Levy, but the players and agents

That will not stop them

Well of course it is.... I don't happen to be on either the player or his agent's Christmas list.

I had also heard that someone else other than Nicholas was getting in them, but rumours rumours...
