It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

[Bill]

If Ronaldo is on the reported 480k per week then I’m glad we dropped out of the race. Trafford are fucking small time, signing a player just so we can’t have him.

Small time fucking wankers and there’s no way they’ll be in for Haaland nor Chelsea for that matter.

I actually think we’ve played a blinder here. Forced the rags to shit themselves and sign Ronaldo for 2 years and walked away from giving Levy the dosh for Kane. Chelsea have got Lukaku so effectively ruling them out of the Haaland race. We’ve done pretty well here in my opinion.

spot on .

Haaland's alleged demands are more than Ronaldo's to add to it payment to Raiola and Alf

Possibly but he’d be here long term.

Might as well everyone else seems to know what’s already been agreed, just like Kane is imminent, Messi is signing and Ronaldo is on his way.
If this transfer window has taught us anything it’s that nothing is done till it’s written down in black and white.

More along the line of we aren't in for him...damn it I said it

 

[Maly]

Dumb new guy here. TH clearly is an insider from what everyone is saying, can someone fill me in on his connection?

He works at Liverpool FC so knows who all our potential signings are

 

[johnnytapia]

Would be quite funny looking back at this when we piss the league again double digits

I think it’ll take more than ten points to clinch it.

 

[Clevers]

Andy Carroll's a free agent. KDB will hit his massive head all day long.

In the treatment room?

 

[mscenterh750]

nearly half a billion pounds a week for a 37 year old who they didn't even need

Fucking mindblowing

I know it’s a pisser. They’ve only signed him because they couldn’t stand the thought of him joining us.

 

[Coatigan]

You're on the list.

Right to the end...should be interesting.

Our manager has a few times said he is happy with the squad and comfortable to go into the next season. I know it is somewhat of an obvious stock line, Nd there is an implied at this moment in time in there, but, I do feel he means it as well should it come to that.

And that's where I am, accepting of that.

Besides, fuck all out there. I'm sure there are people looking at something behind the scenes last 3 days, heck it would irrespinsible not to. I'd rather the club waited then got it right, like they did with dias for kompany, than went for some distant choice last minute alternative. We should be prepared for the likelyhood that this is the squad till the next window.

There are no saints here. The Raiola fee can be “negotiated”. Dortmund has always been the hurdle

 

[LongsightM13]

Least we flushed out a few more ITL Twitter accounts with the Ronaldo story.

Ol Grimesey is history now.

She has been badly burned with this and the previous Hakimi to Chelsea claims

There are no elite striker available anymore. We won't go for kane next summer. Mbappe to Madrid. Lukaku in Chelsea. Haaland to psg, Madrid or Juve.
We have to discover a young striker and take a risk with him.
How I wish Aguero would have given us two more years.. ;( Miss him now! We were spoilt by him.

I knew exactly what you meant.

 

[bluesince76]

I'd suggest they get a comfy chair, as they'll still be in it next summer

 

[paulsimpson]

If it's in € we could do that no problem.

“Waiting” for a striker means higher numbers in the future.

In addition....RMCSport is French isn't it?
Why TF would they know the business of a German and English club??

And the tweet is based on supposed Italian press reports.

Young risky striker you say…..

Ansu Fati returns to Barca team tomorrow after injury and Barca need money.

Tbf, L'Equipe were the first to report on the recent Ronaldo stuff.

So it's possible. Although I don't buy into this specific story.

 

[I'm Blue]

If it's in € we could do that no problem.

€150m + €40m agent fees, still a better deal than Kane.

You know Kevin from Corrie? The one who runs the garage? That’s Tolmie.

Txiki loves Corrie and thinks it’s real, so he takes his Ferrari to Tolm on set to get it fixed, and he gives him all the gossip!

the thing is, it’s one of those little red and yellow ones which you used to push along with your feet (with a Ferrari sticker that his mum got him on the bonnet) when you were young, so Tolm just waves a spanner about and tells him it’s fixed.

Txiki is very, very small.

The thought that Tolm is Kevin Webster really made me chuckle. Next you’ll be telling me Damo is Sally. Twosips is Fizz and billy is chesney.
