Harry Kane

His generations Matt Le Tissier - blind loyalty to one club when he could have picked up medals elsewhere.
I admire the loyalty, I really do, but other than breaking Shearers record what else will he have??

Not sure everyone thinks differently, Kane is a player I can't take to, superb footballer and his goals record is amazing but as a man on the pitch he leaves me cold and that was a reason I did not want him a couple of seasons ago.

Coming towards the end of his career the chance to sign for a couple of the world's top clubs you would think he would want that badly, he owes Spurs nothing and can leave as a hero for evermore, but the chance to come to us and recently Bayern, I cannot understand why he is not fighting for those moves.

His English isn't good enough to communicate the move he wants

It only shows how weak Kane is by not having the balls to demand a move to a top club. Levy once broke a gentleman's agreement with Kane about a move to Manchester City and Kane bottled it and backed down.

Levy Priced him out of the market again and Levy knows Kane's time is running out at 31, One more season at Spurs will sort of say, ok Kane if you leave now you are only going to one place Saudi Arabian

Are you a bottle job again Kane or will you down tools properly and walk away from Spurs and make a move happen, Funny thing is if Manchester City did come calling and did a deal with cash and a player like Laporte he would not be a first team nailed on starter

No such thing as a gentelmans agreement in business.

The only agreement is written in black and white on a piece of official paper.

Kane and his brother messed up, but even allowing for that there seems a serious reluctance from the player to force any move, says a lot about the man for me.

How exactly does he force a move?

Ask for a transfer, demand that Spurs release him, refuse to play, a player does what he has to.

His loyalty to Spurs is not in question, he owes them nothing, is it not time to take care of himself?

PS, buy out his final year, I think he could do that?

Transfer requests can be refused. Refusing to play, can only last so long. He goes without pay, and eventually realises the next transfer window is 6 minths away and has to come back for both his career/fitness and finances.

Case in point, Mahrez, did both in January when ee tried to sign him. Didn't get his move. Played out the rest of the season.

They can but if he puts in a transfer request and tells them he'll run his contract down then they're taking the chance that they won't get 100% from him especially during the run in. This doesn't have to be a deliberate downing of tools, it'll be in his head that he's gone in a few months. Surely better taking €100million now. Not that I expect he'd do that, I wonder if his brother agreed to a 'no transfer request' clause when he last signed him up?

Just spotted the edit. Don't know enough about that one but I have heard of it, so perhaps that is an actual legal route should he hypothetically really want out.

I broadly agree with you btw, Spurs aren't holding him hostage, he is there because he accepts being there. I just don't entirely agree with some of the claims thatnif he wanted out, he'd just have left. It is an uncomfortable stand-off, where both sides seem comfortable with a status quo.

I think having fuck all to show for it is the problem for him.

He done himself no favours by signing long term deals at Tottenham and stuck their until his early 30's. Realistically he has about 2 maybe 3 good years left and that's it.

For a striker like him after scoring so many goals and not having a league title is crazy.

If it was a problem for him surely he wouldn't keep signing long deals at Spurs, he could have ran his contract down anytime he wanted over the last 10 years
It seems to me it bothers other people way more that Harry Kane has won nothing, than Harry Kane himself.

I am sure he will take the plaudits for being the PLs highest goal scorer alongside being his country's record goal scorer.

I'm sure it will still be a good take to tell his grandkids from the front seat of his supercar or chair in his massive house with cinema and pool.

What a fucking failure lol

And I don't even like him btw and didn't want him at City.

But in Mahrez's case he eventually got his move and I am not sure it affected any bad feelings towards him from their fan base.
