If there's uncertainty about the accuracy of the tweet, shouldn't posters be allowed to discuss how reliable it is? That's all I did before you went off on one. It's also, incidentally, what you yourself did later in the thread.
The same goes with other tweets, there are uncertainty about the accuracy and yet still being posted here, so why are you being picky here and telling me not to post it, remember this post?
For the same reason we don't post Indykaila tweets. They don't add any value to the thread.

I've questioned plenty of other tweets. Usually other posters don't take throw a strop about it.

I didn't tell you not to post it. I drew a comparison to an extreme example to demonstrate why questioning tweets is not a bad thing. I apologise if that went over your head.

I have pretty much told you the very first post of your questioning, the tweet added information of the potential about what has been done in the 90%. How are you still not realising that you are keep going circle and wasting my time debating something irrelevant and at the end today I still told you the same thing that I posted the tweet for the potential information of that 90%?

Don't take it so personally. I can tell I've hurt your feelings, but it's not you I'm questioning. It's the content of the tweet.

You think it was an accurate tweet which explained the 90%. I think it was an inaccurate tweet which made up information about the 90%. That's all I said. Chill out.

My post was (and still is) a reasonable opinion. Subsequent information that's been leaked about the 'transfer' has only supported it.

Guy on sky sports hyping the hell out of him at the moment. To quote him "at only 19 he's already more of a player than Kante"

No, he said that he offers more in the attacking sense.

I’m sorry but I hate people who don’t read and not making progress in the discussion. And you are prime example of it because I have told you so many times, the tweet is about the ‘’possibility’’ of what’s the 90% and you keep asking the same question of the same answer that I have given you. If it’s inaccurate in your view then you need to prove it because that’s what I have also been asking you which something you couldn’t do it but posted a tweet from account that got restricted and yet still can’t move on from it. All I want is more information about Caicedo not going circle talking about Romano‘s tweet, if you can’t provide me that then don’t waste my time.

I'm several steps ahead of you then. There's no shame in that.

I can see that you posted a tweet about the "possibility" of what the 90% entails. In response, I'm discussing the integrity of that "possibility" and how it may or may not impact the transfer.

I don’t know what you are talking about but if it makes you happy so you can move on from it then okay.

Again, if you want to discuss it then you need to prove if it’s inaccurate for the counter argument. It took you about 8 posts or more until you made progress by giving me proof but at the end it came from source of account that got restricted by Twitter. And somehow, you still can’t move on. What can I do for you in order for you to stop wasting my time?

Have you even watched him play?
Yeah watched him for Ecuador v Uruguay and he didn't look out of place at all against some talented players like Bentancur & Suarez and think he is capable of making that step up given the opportunity

You presented the original evidence. If anything, the burden of proof should be on you. You never proved the tweet was accurate and even admitted you didn't know if it was. But that's okay. It's all a part of being on a discussion forum. People are allowed to have opinions and post things they're uncertain about - as long as they allow others to respond and critique.

I responded and critiqued your post and you threw a wobbly telling me it was irrelevant and that I should a new thread.

That's great but I didn't ask you the question.

Fact that someone can say we could have done with a player they've never watched is laughable. Then, even if you have watched in a couple of games, it's a big jump for a 19 year from a new league to make that step up straight away, especially against a very good City side. Saying that, we do tend to go a bit crazy over players we've never watched or watched very little on the Caf.

I presented the original evidence for purpose to add information about the possibility of what’s the 90% from professional journalist Romano. Unless if it is or was proven wrong then the source remains more accurate than ''your opinion''. If you still disagree and wanted to stick with your opinion then you have two choices, prove it wrong or move on. All I care is information about Caicedo not your opinion as you are not journalist.

There are a lot more than two choices. What about choices like discuss it, question it, investigate it, counter it, etc?

Counter it then, you provided nothing but only opinion. All I care is information about Caicedo not your opinion as you are not journalist.

You gave me information/source from account that got restricted on twitter. That's worse reliability than Romano.
The source is an interview given to Radio La Red. The clue is in the name. It's a radio station. Not everything gets posted on Twitter.

And I doubted Romano for other reasons too. Try reading the original post.

Again, I don't know who or what is Radio La Red and how they are more reliable than professional sport journalist and their twitter account is being restricted.

So basically, you've found the stupidest possible way to verify something and then struggled to understand why it didn't work.

The world doesn't revolve around Twitter.

Here's a page from the radio station's website. They interviewed the Independiente del Valle general manger directly on the Jornadas show.

But it's all good. This kind of discussion about the integrity of sources is healthy. Just like it's appropriate for other people to question the veracity of the tweet you posted.

Again, we are not making progress but keep going circle again. You still haven't answer my question. How is Radio La Red more reliable or have better accuracy than Sport Journalist like Romano & Ecuadorian journos or even Castillo?

They're a first hand source. The interview happened on the radio station itself during one of their own programs. Read the article.

Yes so how is it countering what Romano and the other journos said?
