Isco

[southstandblue27]

Been told by an 'ITK' that the Isco deal is 50/50. Malaga are reluctant to let us take two important figures from their club (Pellegrini, now Isco) and our interest isn't strong enough to fight for it. Also the Cavani deal is off (was never really on) due to valuation while the interest in El Shaarawy is genuine a deal is a long way off and again, the valuation will probably kill it happening this summer anyway.

Well that's fucking shit.

So, if we get information from an ITK and pass it along, are we then also an ITK? Or are we immune from ITK scrutiny? Are videos required?

They are immune from ITK scrutiny from my memory of law school.

been fairly sanguine about our targets for some reason, the 2 already on board addressed our main weakesses, but i just heard a guy (paddy someone) who is a spain based journo , describe Isco as an "absolute genius" never heard him call anyone that before, so now i've joined the rest of the nervous nigels clicking on the thread every five minutes. Bastard

Was it agnew bb

thats the fella, seems to know more than most about the comings and goings in Spain

I love how everyone suddenly "knows a guy" come the transfer window.

Just watche3d the highlights from last night again. That goal was very well taken. I wonder whether we may just play him as an alternative striker. An avenue worth exploring for sure.

Yeah so sorry, Jesus.

It won't be that simple, MP's preferred system is 4-2-2-2, already stated i think if Cavani signs it won't be in the conventional role merely because of his work rate compared to Kun, can see Aguero slightly in front of Cavani (not directly behind), Navas will alternate more granted, however he'll get plenty of game time

4-2-2-2 will be something like

.........fern.....yaya.............
.........isco.....silva.............
.........cavani.....................
....................aguero........ massive emphasis on fullbacks bombing on!!!

Which is why I'd go balls deep for Baines. He is a double of Jordi Alba but is also a set piece guru.

Know what you mean, although clichy is the superior defender and in a system like that it's essential to have a solid foundation, creatively we'll never be lacking (IMO) so would be a waste!!!

Hold on Pellegrini left of his own accord we didnt take him as you put it and your saying our new manager doesnt want his favourite player who has just had a stunning U21 championships for a decent price and that malaga would rather he went to Madrid where he would play them twice a year rather than 2 another country im sorry but im not buying it.

And how can a deal that was never really on be off, we knew the valuation going in and his own mother has stated today that we are in talks with him. Im sure ur ITK gave you the info in good faith but alot of it doesnt add up really

Pellegrini isn't in charge of the signings, Txiki is and therefore what he wants is not the be all and end all. And by it being off I just meant we were never in a strong position to sign Cavani and almost certainly won't be getting him unless Chelsea talks prove fruitless and Napoli lower their valuation.

Not claiming what I've been told is 100 % true either and we are still 50/50 to get Isco so could still happen.

Utter and complete nonsense firstly you completely ignored the fact that we didnt take pellegrini from malaga and why would malaga want to sell him to madrid where he would have to face them twice a year so your point fell down there and yes this whole business of txiki being in charge of signings im sure he brokers deal no doubt but if you think pellegrini wont have an input you must be mad and do you honestly think having seen him and if we had an opportunity to get him then we wouldnt do and im not saying you are claiming it to be true but you've pretty much covered your bases their mate you've said we might get him we might not so either way your right so that makes it pretty easy to be ITK there.

In terms of cavani basically you've covered your bases again we wont get him unless napoli lower their valuation or the chelsea talks (which have happened yet ) prove fruitless so once again we might get him we might not this ITK business is easy really. Im not in the habit of arguing on forums so sorry if i seem to be contradictory but i just dont buy what your friend has told you.

Smell BS. Why would Malaga be bothered about losing Isco to us just because Pellegrini is our new manager?. Fucking shite businessmen if that's how they work.
