Spoofex gone and ITKs being banned are exactly what that sub needed. Hopefully it goes back to being the place of decent discussion and funny memes that it used to be.
Don't claim to be ITK so take what you will.
Usual friend who is close. Mario joined saints intending to use as a stepping stone up the premier League, understood from both sides in 2/3 seasons. He was willing/happy to put in another season - a full season under RH, but enquiries were made so he requested (unofficially) for saints to honour the step up. Ralph obliged.
Man Utd are only enquiring at the moment, sounding out price, no offer made. Arsenal have made an offer that was rejected but negotiations continue.
Couple of clubs from Europe also enquiring but he wants to play PL. If offer isn't good enough from PL then Europe and champions League it is.
Lots of interest. Agent has been in London since Sunday. Saints want deal done quick since learning last week of his wishes (he was part of plans for season).
Surprisingly Simon Peach (considered very reliable for us and Saints news) said something similar about it being a stepping stone:Saints web itk.
We need two midfielders and a right winger though.So we have time for 2 more hopefully.
Don’t think we will be signing a RW. Bruno and a CM, probably Longstaff and that should be it. Sancho next yearWe need two midfielders and a right winger though.
We know that, but a lot of people are quibbling whether or not we should trust the Sun or Castles on this. He tends to rubber stamp the final rumours.Meh.
The journos were onto this hours ago. This guy only ‘announces’ things already in the public domain. Regarding his time-stamp of the James transfer, it’s obvious he only has a mate in the social media department and not anybody remotely near the negotiation team.
He is clearly just making things up! How can you all not see this?
Meh.

To be fair no reliable outlet has said that this is done.
His source is The Sun and a bit of common senseIt's only in the public domain by a source banned on this forum and Duncan Castles who's very ropey since Mourinho left himself
This Simon chap clearly has sources and is more than just someone who jumps on the bandwagon like you're suggesting

If I tweet it will you believe me?Unless you know that for a fact you shouldn't pass your speculation off as one
You need to accept the fact that RW will be Lingard, Mata and Dalot.We need two midfielders and a right winger though.

Why? James and Greenwood will be better than all the ones you mentioned.You need to accept the fact that RW will be Lingard, Mata and Dalot.
I think you might want to lower your expectations on those two. Lingard will still be our main man on the right wing as depressing as that is.Why? James and Greenwood will be better than all the ones you mentioned.
Imagine how sweeeet it’s going to be when we announce a double signing of Maguire & DeLigt. This is why it’s slow and secretive..
We will see about James but I believe Greenwood is on a different level. If he gets some experience and loses the nerves playing with the big boys, he's miles more talented that Beansgard.I think you might want to lower your expectations on those two. Lingard will still be our main man on the right wing as depressing as that is.
Man Wallow in that sweetness
I'd be delighted with that much. We'd actually be a very good side again imo.
Greenwood and James are decent RW options for this year.

We are not in for Bruno Fernandes for starter, we got this talent called Angel Gomes, and you might have noticed Juan Mata getting his contract extended.How is it making things up?
At worst he's piggy backing on info already out there.

In terms of reliability, the Simon guy has arguably got more things right this last year than pretty much any other journo. There are of course naturally plenty of other "ITK" who just make things up though.BS --- ITK ---------- Formal Press Release ---------- Club
That's kind of the way I see all this stratified. ITKs being closer to bull sh*t rumors than formal info sent to the papers. The Simon chap is much higher up in that chain. He posts only what's true and that's nicer to know even if a few days in advance than made up nonsense from click baiters weeks in advance. Would you rather this guy just make stuff up?
