Harry Kane

[Damocles]

The closest I ever saw to a one man team was Maradonna at Napoli

Gerrard at Liverpool in mid 00s has a shout. Was their best defender, attacker, and creator. At one point it was so bad he could probably put in a cross and head it in himself

Kanes a fantastic finisher. The Everton game against spurs showed that last year didn't need many opportunities to put the ball in the back of the net. Grealish made an opportunity yesterday where all I could think was if Kane is there it's a goal. Plus this goes under the radar but Kane is one of the best creators in the league as well, he won the playmaker award. We get him we have the 3 best creators in the league.

Kane will be playing for us in all the big games as well, where he will get service. I just want it to happen so we have an experienced, quality striker fitting our needs.

I think we miss a 9 so much but miss the flexibility in formation it gives us.

I get the feeling that if Kane landed (sorry when he lands just in time for the Arsenal game) he will make such a difference and will slot into the fluidity of our game and high press much better than anyone can imagine.

I keep thinking of the potential of Kane getting on the end of those crosses KDB puts in from just outside the box on the right. We didn't deploy that as much (from memory) last year - but I think the threat of Grealish on the left will give KDB more freedom.

I think by getting Grealish and looking to get Kane we are going for more of a system cutting edge rather than the complete control over games we had last year. Kanes a brutal goalscorer and Grealish will create chance after chance.

Bernardo going will make it pretty impossible for us to play with a false 9 over a full season I think

His accurate passing into the box and general workrate was one of the key reasons it worked so well.

Absolute worst case scenario is we lose Bernardo and don't get Kane in and are stuck between the 2 systems.

Why would we change a system that’s been so successful Grealish for Bernado doesn’t change much it will be tweaked

Wait, if Kane comes does that mean he'll finally start scoring in August?

I just hope IF we do manage to get kane pep tells him to stay in and around the box and stop the dropping deep bollocks he does for england, we’ve 4 or 5 better playmakers than him, his job for us is goals goals and more goals

It was successful last year but we still struggled for goals in some big games and didn’t score as much as usual. Playing with a striker has also worked very well for us over the years and next year other teams at the top will be better than last season

Out of interest, what percentage of your fans would prefer Kane to be sold this summer?

Also, do you not believe it would be detrimental to your season and top 4 hopes if you keep a player against his will?

No way we will go over 150m IMO and I honestly think the deal has to happen for all parties - we need a striker, Kane wants to go and this will be the most you get for him!

In terms of top 4, it's always possible but your squad needs a complete overhaul/injection of quality and if your looking to sign another 4/5 players (not sure who they are btw) you will need to sell to spend this sort of money, because quality players will cost you.

I would say 75% of fans want him gone now.

Hmm, no. Kane is a professional or at least used to be, so he will knuckle down and get on with it but there is an unknown as to how he would act. We can assume but not be totally sure. I still think keeping Kane is better for our chances than without. We need to replace a lot of goals otherwise. We have lost Bale's output too.

They're completely different players.

Bernardo (under Pep) is extremely industrious, loves short accurate passes, makes the midfield so much more controlled.

Grealish is a risk taker who's at his best driving at a defence, he'll give us more in terms of chance creation but we'll lose a lot in control.

Edit: Also playing against a packed defence with no striker is a completely different proposition in an empty stadium compared to a full away ground.
