Harry Kane

[Coatigan]

Agreed. If he's such a great negotiator and businessman, how come Spurs are so fucked financially - reportedly.

Well if he's such a great negotiator, how come he has no hair!

That is just as valid an argument!

100m for Jack Brumlish, who we don't need, with two good seasons playing for a shit team: 'get in there, great talent, if you don't want him then I'm embarassed for you'

100m for Kane, proven world class striker, guaranteed a bag full each season, skint in the position: 'lol fuck off m8, overrated, do not want him'

Makes sense.

Apparently there was a "falling out" over agent fees.

Poker time spurs need money we need a striker who can bluff the best

Spurs need £95m to pay off a debt (read on here)
Then they will also need a striker, minimum.
Hence why Levy wants £150m

So it's going round Kanes a done deal, been working all morning so not read back, is this confirmed as a reality?

Also the 100M bid to Grealish?

All hearsay as far as I’m aware.

World class? Very good PL striker, not so sure about world class.

Not sure that’s quite how it works… I might want a holiday and a new kitchen and decide to sell my car to fund it…. The cost of the holiday and the kitchen do not determine the value of the car… the car is worth what the car is worth.

Easily world class. A guy scoring bags full each season in this league can only be considered as such.

Say it enough, it'll stick ;)

The New Samaras is out there somewhere

No man crush. We have eyes and it’s embarrassing the made up points people provide to not want him. By all means don’t like or want him. Don’t talk absolute bollocks though

You are very aggressive

Not debating his quality, but not sure two goals against Tunisia, a hat-trick against Panama and a penalty against Colombia is worth writing home about

I dont see RM and Barca or Bayern or any of those "big" clubs going for him, unless I missed something? They want Haaland and Mbappe, they cant afford it but they made it clear who they want, it isnt Harry though. Is it?

Anyway, I am looking forward to how Kane handles this lack of form and pressure on him to score. I saw Shearer go through the same thing for a while and it didnt really phase him, I am hoping Harry is the same.

 

[sir baconface]

Therein lies the problem. He’s got a lot left on that contract so they can play hard ball with Kane if necessary.

Spurs hold the cards (sort of). They don’t want a disgruntled player and they need the money but they won’t let him go on the cheap. It’s just a case of whether they are willing to lower that valuation to a figure that works for us. I’d be shocked if it was 8 figures.

If he had a year left then the strategy you suggest would work. It’s difficult when he has 2 or 3 years left still

I think that’s a realistic assessment and there’s a deal to be done around £100m.

My guess is one side or other would pull out and move on at +/- 10%.

Not defending Levy but his strategy was to build a large and state-of-the-art stadium to grow club revenues and instead we got an unforeseeable pandemic, completely reversing the situation. He has now growing expenses with such a stadium and lower income.

 

[doobyedoobye]

I'm sure we know the lay of the land with Levy. This posturing is all shadow puppetry..

True...but the situation is dog eat dog.

Besides, Levy has made other shit decisions with a big impact on finances and reputation, not least the appointment of Mourinho.

Fair point
