HalfTimePost Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 I can guess which posters are going to moan about this being a random Twitter account but they've been right before. Better than a Sports Witness link anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially as that money would get put to use on other positions Not so sure about that, as @picicata said, in theory Guendouzi should offer a lot more, and he's two years younger. I'd rather pay that now than make do with Tielemans and then want an upgrade in another couple of seasons or so. Take your point about needing to upgrade other positions also though.

If Tielemans works out, we wouldn't be thinking of selling for another 5/6 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah fair enough...well I've just watched a YT vid of him, as not seen loads of him before. Tbh, he looks to have more to his game than I thought he did. Very tidy player.

wishywashy Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Sometimes I'm tempted to start one of these accounts on private, just tweet out a bunch of relatively feasible signings, hope a few are right, delete the wrong ones, then go un-private and suddenly have a masterful ITK record. At that point, you might as well get as many wrong as you like as long as you delete them, since clearly it doesn't matter (whispers kept going for 2 years despite being completely different from the OG actually ITK one). Unfortunately, I'm not sad enough to do that... yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Risso Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 6 hours ago, picicata said: It's a fair point and I'm by no means saying I'm definitely correct I have been wrong many times, just a feeling I get. To me It's like buying a coat because it's in the sales even though it's not the coat you actually wanted and it's not quite the right size. You might wear it occasionally but you'll always be wishing you'd just paid the extra for the coat you really coveted On the other hand, you live with a really good tailor who can alter the coat to be exactly how you want it. He's already turned the old pair of jeans and the jumper your nan bought you that you were going to take down to the local charity shop into superb looking designer wear, so letting the coat out a bit so that it fits your style shouldn't be too much of an issue for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, too many players had checked out and the rest were totally demoralised by Rodgers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
