A more skilful version of crouchie. Watched a lot of him last season definitely think he would be a good option for us definitely prefer him to dost he can link the play well , can see bale and son making great runs in behind him
So we're talking a 6ft 6' version of Messi?

Just signing this type of forward would mean Kane has to start putting more of a shift in for the team if he wants to play. Pressing, running the channels, winning headers. He's been concentrating more and more on scoring for the last year and it's been detrimental to the team's fluidity. Also means he can get a rest and we will benefit from a sharper, fitter Kane at the business end of the season. Win win.

Not sure on the Weghorst and Dost links. I get that we need a focal striker who can make them ball stick, but when we’re counter attacking do they have the pace to keep up? Genuine question there, I don’t know as I haven’t seen either play.

Crouchy did o.k. when Lennon and Bale were tearing it up on the counter.

I see ‘fraud’ thrown about all the time - are there actual evidence of this? If you go on other boards, Trix and Hercules are called frauds, so it seems to me mostly based on ignorance, not facts.

Not saying The Cockerel is the real shit, but I’m not comfortable with calling everyone a fraud just because they’re not one of the regular ones.

Trix and Hercules are verified here, The Cockerel is posting privately on Twitter to this ITK aggregator and his info aren't good.

If this is true it will be the happiest I’ve ever been as a spurs fan transfer wise along with Bale and Reguilon. He’s such a brilliant player, and he gives us something completely different.

Yet he's been given a rating by the aggregator of Tier 2 - which would indicate most of his info is solid. For comparison, Trix gets aggregated by @SpursITKhub and is also rated Tier 2.

The aggregator rigorously dismisses people that he himself calls 'frauds.'

ITK changes as we know, so it's easy to misunderstand what is solid info, but I've been following this aggregator for a while and his system and his own tier ratings are pretty decent.

@Premtransferman is gaining a lot of traction on twitter - often calling things before Romano. He is given a rating of tier 3 and will have this rating until the end of the window when the aggregator will do an inventory of the info and see if they get bumped up a tier. He started as a tier 5, before his info was proved to be true so got bumped up to tier 4, then tier 3. Next window I expect he'll be tier 1.

For comparison, our own Hercules is given a tier 3 by the aggregator.

Basically, the info is assessed over time and the ITK rated accordingly by the aggregator's own system.

If The Cockerel's info is proved inaccurate over the course of the window, he'll be bumped down a tier or two.

Lads can we not say anything remotely negative that affects the Weghorst Klaxon. Thanks.

They are verified here, yes. Other places they wont know that, and thus call them frauds everytime they aren’t proven 100% correct.
By your logic, we might as well call The Goat a fraud.

ITK is just a bit of fun, mate. Apply a dose of salt and believe who you want to. Don’t bet your house on it, wheter it comes from JJ or The Cockerel.

Would be really happy with this one. Started looking him up last year when Stoof was incessantly posting "Wout!" like a demented Pokemon.

Funny enough, he seems like a really good player and doesn't just have a great name.

Don’t know much about him.

But I have a question he’s dutch and just turned 28. Why has he not played more for Holland ? It’s not like they have been blessed in recent years.

Just curious as to why and if there is a reason that anyone knows of?
