  1. If Kieran Scott had done a video like that last week, about Tavernier’s move to Bournemouth, what would everyone think?

    I know what the consensus on here would be: ‘The club are just trying to make it out that they did everything they could to convince him to stay so that the fans don’t get on their backs, and they’re preparing us for the worst.’

     

    Infact, that’s been the exact response I’ve seen to the some gazette articles about Tav.

     

    I think he’s ours and this is pure PR/preparation from his current club.

  2. If the club were going to leak wrong information purposely to flush out ITK sources, would they really leak something like this?

    Would they want the fans to think we’d signed this brilliant striker for big money? Wouldn’t they be more likely to leak something slightly less exciting that people wouldn’t be bothered about happening either way?

     

    All they’ve done is raise fan expectations and added more pressure to themselves, if that is the case

    I wonder if we’re planning for two scenarios. Forss for if Tav stays, Gyokeres for if Tav leaves as we’d have significantly more money in play.

    Say the Spence and Tav sales combined bring in 30m we could probably justify spending 10m on Gyokeres if he’s our number one target.

    The issue with that is we don’t know if and when Tav will leave. He might leave in 3 weeks time, by which point Forss will have gone elsewhere and we may not have enough time to strike a deal for Gyokeres. If that is our thinking it’s a high risk , high reward game we’re playing. We’re doing similar with Armstrong / Muniz as who knows when Southampton and Fulham will sign their strikers.

    If we bring in Armstrong/Gyokeres towards the back end of the window 7 games might already have been played and then they’ll need time to bed in, that’s potentially a quarter of the season gone before they’ve found their feet.
