Harry Kane

[Craig]

Brilliant today.. still believe he's the best option out there ALL things considered.

I think he’s brilliant but if we can get Haaland instead it‘s a no brainer

I would take Haaland over Kane any day. Kane is an injury prone striker who has never really won anything and is reaching the point where it's all downhill for his pace, reaction time etc. By contrast Haaland is fit and young and hungry to win trophies in what for a striker, is always a short career. Plus his dad played for City so could put in a good word.

If Sir Harry is playing out the role of White Knight over his crusade for Human Rights in the Middle East it would be hard for him to now sign for us. Guess that's the end of this little episode.

So the love child of John Wark and Peter Beardsley is now spouting about the Middle East. All nations should ‘shine a light’ ,whatever the fook that means, on Qatar.
Very good Harry well said.
Good to see a man of such principle.
So does this mean he’ll refuse to go just like Johan Cruyff did in 1978 regarding Argentina?
Just wondering.

Based on their careful observation on Qatar, the Germans saw that that country had a lot of gas and inked a supply deal. Perhaps, he is intimating that UK should do the same before the winter comes.

What’s the poor boy to do? Food poverty was already taken...

Touchy subject is it for us blues? No harm in somebody using their profile to talk about human rights.

For half the price as well

 

[Tugay One Cup]

I sense a very Beckham-esque post-playing career for Kane in terms of paying lip service to whatever topic is en vogue enough to push him closer to a knighthood.

I don't have a problem with it in and of itself but these comments always seem completely superficial. See Hector Bellerin talking about absolutely anything outside of football.

And that's before we get into the fact that virtually none of the players, managers, journalists and fans were looking to "shine a light" on Russia four years ago, Brazil four years before that or South Africa four years before that.

It just comes across as someone regurgitating something the public want to hear, rather than speaking from the heart.

Yeah, you’re probably right. It would be good if there were a few players who spoke openly on things though and weren’t all like media trained sheep.

State of this thread right now

 

[StillBluessinceHydeRoad]

Why is no-one interested in making sure that FIFA get caught in the spotlight? Surely footballers should want to analyse FIFA's role in all this, in view of the long history of dodgy world cup hosts!

I’m in the middle here. Kane’s utterances were undoubtedly well meant but England players are clearly following a party script.

 

[Paul1970]

He has now scored 22 goals this season not bad considering his he start he had . Absolute quality Kane is .

 

[Bluesiam]

If they spoke openly on things the media didn't want to hear about, would we even be hearing their interviews!?

 

[Abattoir Blue]

OAP at 28 and the best number 9 in the league by a mile

He makes United 3x better on his own if he goes.

 

[Centurions]

He makes United 3x better on his own if he goes.

And we'd still be 4x times better than them as a team. One signing isn't going to put them back at the top, there's far too much broken there. The cherry on the top is that it was us that broke them :)

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

I’ve got a feeling he will be at city come July

I’ve got a feeling he will be at city come July

It’s a horrible feeling but it’ll pass mate, hang in there and you’ll see that the dark clouds disperse and the sun shines again.
