Popular Post JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted July 15, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2023 I understand not believing the majority of " ITK " accounts, but why do some people get so genuinely outraged? lol SOME people do actually get info, where they do, I wouldn't know. On the whole though, I enjoy speculation and see it as a bit of fun. It's easy to just ignore or block things you don't want to see. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take any reporter/tweeter comments as ITK without supporting information then you are only fooling yourself but I enjoy speculation. this is exactly how i feel. there's really no difference between these so called fake ITKs and talksport saying we're going to sell martinez to chelsea 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the whole though, I enjoy speculation and see it as a bit of fun. It's easy to just ignore or block things you don't want to see. Obscure ITK - my brother used to work at a prestigious Birmingham clothes store so he would get some good info because when a player would move to one of the clubs in the midlands his store dealt with the agents who would then have items from that store delivered to either Bodymoor Heath or a property where the player might be housed. Few beauties from him - Jack Grealish - his stuff and orders got diverted to Manchester store. @Delphinho123 I think it was who mentioned his Barnt Green house got sold so I kinda knew it was despite my own fanboy denial. Damián Martínez - turns out it was Emi1. JWP - we were close to signing him same summer. My brother was adamant we were signing Tielemans last season but last minute pull out. When we signed Traore he said “trust me you lot need to sell to buy or loans only.” We got Barkley on loan. He doesn’t work there anymore so doesn’t get the same level of info. He’s not on social media and I didn’t really post that much in case it gets him sacked as two others were sacked for the same thing. Some signings he didn’t know about because the store didn’t receive any clothing requests from the club or agents. Oh and yes I cheated that’s how I knew We’ll beat Atletico to Boubs. The one genuine ITK I’ve received is Ciaran Clark had Newcastle Tracksuit bottoms on as I delivered a pizza to him in four oaks day before the signing was announced. An effin pizza ITK. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 (edited) Sorry the point of my post was sometimes there are people who have some ITK info but there is a lot of tripe but not a reason to take it seriously or even get upset about it. As for Johnson if he is wanted by Don Unai then there’s something he’s seen that he likes. He’s obviously very fast but I think his technical ability is a bit lower than the other players we’ve been linked with.

MarkLillis Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 This is exactly the type of signing we should make right now. Hes already shown he can do it in the Premier league. There is a very good chance he gets better next year and if he does while at Forest then this ship will have sailed for Villa anyway. Sign him now and this time next year the majority of the Premier league will be looking on in envy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not likely in our new situation. He would be a massive outlay so flipping for a profit will only happen if a bigger club comes in with an offer we can't refuse, eg Man Utd throw £80mil at us in two seasons. The other scenario is the Bailey route where it turns out they're a useful player but not worth the outlay. Watkins as an example. We're not going to flip him for a profit now, he'll leave after forcing a move if he goes at all. Someone like Fulham aren't coming in with £40mil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily taking punts on them but they may not be ready to be that top 6 player yet but they need to step up and none of the top 6 will take that risk. Hes a big lad aswell, he grew in to the season scoring some important goals I think it would be a great signing. Villa is the place for Johnson to progress and seeing comments Forest fans can accept losing him to us in comparison to say West Ham or Brentford. Alex Scott is also in that bracket.
