Harry Kane

Tee off time for golf today is 12.52, not looking forward to the pages and pages of Kane played, didn't play, sat on the bench, looked happy, looked unhappy later but I'll be reading & catching up.

The transfer forum is like a woman who constantly lies & cheats on yiu but you just can't help going back for one last time.

I see it a little bit like this...in the early 70's when I spent my pocket money on a packet of football cards and a square piece of cardboard chewing gum I hoped that when I opened the packet I would get the football card I hoped for...more often than not I would get duplicates or utter random shite...one day I heard a boy in the playground had in his possession the very card I desired....he had arthur mann and I would of killed him with a sock laden with marbles for arthur man's card....I spoke with him about a potential swap deal offering him 10 cards for his 1 but he was playing hardball and told me he wasn't interested unless it was 20....what a greedy little boy BUT he had ARTHUR MANN.....after several attempts of negotiating a series of different outcomes I lulled him into thinking he was going to get his own way and he was going to fleece me for 20 cards...I asked to have a look at Arthur's card to be sure of authenticity and in a blink of a eye I ripped the card in half....I knew at that moment the transfer window had closed and I hadn't got my target ...greed is a terrible trait and envy was my equaliser

You gave two options. The third is that we don't agree on the valuation and move on to someone else.

Harry Kane is not the only striker in world football, there will be other targets. If there aren't then the people involved at City should be sacked as they shouldn't only have a plan A with no contingency. I don't believe the people we have would do that though as they are professionals.

It's been known that it's Kane or no-one else. So the third option would be walk away and get nobody sadly

Known by who?

ITK?

The so called ITK are fed information, you think the club don't know about these people and where they get their information from?

The club would never let information about alternatives out, they are too clever for that.

We had a similar situation in the pursuit of a CB, Dias came out of nowhere.

They could suprise us but there isn't a lot of time left in this window to go after another target and there are no new reports from others to suggest we are. To me it looks like it Kane or no-one imo

We have employed the same tactics many times, Sanchez, Maguire, Kouibailly to name just a few.

Have faith is the people at the club and ignore wannabe KFAs

He might well be the first choice but to suggest there is one choice or nothing is laughable. The club don't operate like that. If that was true, why would they let that be known? It would make their negotiating position extremely weak with Spurs.
 
Cards on the table, I don't want Kane and never have. Don't ask me why, I just don't like/rate him. Would he improve the team, I'd have to say yes. Would he score goals, course he would but who wouldn't! Do I think we'll sign him though? Not for £150 mill and nor should we. Depending on what you believe, we have a market value we attach to players and thats what we pay. We don't tend to negotiate from what I can tell. FFS Mahrez we made a fair offer and walked away when leicester got greedy and got him a year later. Slab head we made an offer based on market value and walked away when he was valued at more than what we considered him to be worth and allowed him to go to manure. Is kane worth £150 million? I don't believe so, no. Is he worth £100 mill with £20 mill add ons, over 5 years? Probably, certainly a more palatable figure but would Levy sell for this? Who knows but I believe its £100 mill plus add ons (£20 mill) or we walk away. I suspect we're happy with this and nothing is happening cause we don't have to do anything. The ball is in Levy's court now and we have to wait it out and hope he blinks first.
 
The truth is we won’t win the league without a decent striker as we are just not clinical enough. You can point to last season but that was a massive purple patch with things going very well.

In certain cases we seem to be really bad at planning and backing ourselves into a corner when it comes to bringing in certain players. We should of got a replacement for Aguero while he had a year left. If we can’t sign Kane now then we need a decent stop gap at least to have the option. Ings act would of been fine for this.

I also believe we won’t go back in for him if he doesn’t sign in this window. Another year older with a still ridiculous price tag makes no sense. I hope we go all out for Haaland next year, whatever it takes because he is a generational talent.

Hope we never get anyone from Tottenham again, not worth the hassle and high price tags. Should file away with Napoli.

That to me says we must be sure we can get this over the line to let it go to this point of the transfer window with no targets. But I don't know what's happening behind the scenes tbf I am basing this on the lack of reports on City going after other targets and focusing on Kane.
