Harry Kane

[Sir peace frog]

The fact we have no back up option of another striker, even for a year, stinks of pure arrogance. If we don’t get a striker we WILL struggle. Last year was a fluke and ultimately, everyone else was crap. I doubt we would be as successful without a striker this year.
A disaster, i know im a cock, but i like to prove it with the odd twatish post

edited.well done on fitting so much bullshit into such a small post,

Time for Levy to decide if he wants money for a player who wants away or accolades from our enemies for not selling.

Alternatively all has been agreed and he tries to find replacements.

Happy clapper? Erm no I'm just a normal fan minus ridiculous comments and minus the

But we can be certain that the club looked at the alternatives. Haaland is an impossibility this summer, as ourselves and Chelsea both found out. Then as well as Kane, we have monitored the likes of Lukaku, Darwin Nunez, Andre Silva, Danny Ings, Patson Daka. These are all names that we saw linked with City in the recent past. But what if the club looked at all the data on them, all the reports, and decided ONLY Kane fits the bill out of all the attainable strikers this summer? If that’s the case, as it very much appears to be, then as much as we don’t like it, the sensible approach if we don’t get Kane is to keep our powder dry for when someone else is available that does meet our needs. It’s a total waste of money to buy someone that can’t do what Pep wants from this striker purchase.

I think we need to get our heads around the fact that there's a very small pool of players who the club would consider as potential targets. Of that very small pool there are an even smaller number who are available for transfer. There's no point adding numbers for the sake of it.

Ian Mcgarry saying Kane will submit a transfer request.

I'll be impressed if he actually does. I read a quote in the telegraph saying:

Kane does not intend to submit a transfer request, even in a late attempt to try to force the move, because it is clear what his position is and what he wants to happen and he has even already said this publicly.

But, by that logic, if the damage has already been done, why not just hand in a transfer request. 'It's clear what his position is' anyway?

 

[GornikDaze]

Yeah today, I reckon around dinner time.

Is that lunchtime or posh dinner time? ;)

 

[SPIDERBOY]

Maybe Tottenham have a replacement lined up,but the selling club is holding things up?
Maybe selling club wants,say £70m, but spuds saying "£55m,we don't have £70m".
If we launch £130m on the table,maybe Spuds are worried about getting fleeced?

The club should've have an alternative, if things doesn't go the direction they thought it should. And currently we do not have that. Simple logic actually.

There aren’t many - if any - good enough alternatives that would be an upgrade on what we’ve got. Jesus had a great scoring record & would be as good as any so called plan b

likely he doesn’t want to lose his loyalty bonus

If you are so sure the deal is happening, why do you think Kane's camp are breifing the press and throwing their toys out the pram? It's because a deal isn't happening.

City need to offer the asking price, and then the negotiations can start. Kane still might go, but are City going to offer us 160 million? because that is what it will take.

At the moment you are nowhere near. I have no idea if you will pay it, but you have the money surely, so if anyone can do it City can. It wouldn't surprise me either way.

Mate, you're not going to win The Apprentice, this is literally the saddest way to support a football team I have ever seen.

 

[CC1]

But if there are no suitable alternatives as the club have decided then you don’t settle for something you don’t want or need. They want Kane if they can’t get Kane they don’t want an inferior alternative. Let’s not start listing “alternatives” either because that hasn’t gone well this week

EXACTLY. Why don’t people understand this.

When do they fly out - take it it's sometime today?

Sorry if discussed elsewhere but if he plays in Europa conference Micky mouse cup - is he ineligible for our CL squad IF we sign him?

 

[Stoned Rose]

I think there is a good chance Spurs will sell at the 11th hour because in the circumstances they'd be foolish not to but it's Levy's call. In the meantime City will have to work out if there is a fall-back plan. I really would go for Lacazette if fit. I've always rated him. Top quality striker and like Giroud an excellent foil for forwards around him.

I don't think anything will happen now until the last days of the window.

Lacazette would certainly be a better option than just not signing any striker.

I'm sure City will have other options in case this deal goes pear.

 

[Sibierskii]

Not a chance he's on that plane

 

[Stoned Rose]

Sorry if discussed elsewhere but if he plays in Europa conference Micky mouse cup - is he ineligible for our CL squad IF we sign him?

Can play in both comps.

 

[leo_city]

If he doesn't travel it's game on.
He's been back long enough to be fit to play some part.

All a waiting game now.

No wouldn't affect him playing in the CL with us.

He would be eligible

Which one is it? ;-)

Kane’s party have now made their side of the story public, so there’s acrimony between your star player and the club’s owners, the support having already turned against him. The press will now run with this all week. Levy can either allow that bad feeling to fester all season, which would be an unwelcome gift for a new manager, or make a deal.

The clubs will presumably meet in the middle.
