Harry Kane

[Pollocks OG]

I think the poster is entirely right who said that Haaland is something of a gamble. A great young player, but who hasn't been tested the Premier League, who doesn't fill our weaknesses of headers and penalties in the way Kane does, who comes with a circus of an agent and wages that would wreck the structure of the club. And the nature of potential, while exciting, is ephemeral - he could be the best striker on Earth in two years. But he might not be. Maybe he's hit his ceiling. I doubt it, but the point is that you can't hold potential in your hands. It's magic dust.

Whereas Kane has proven for almost a decade now that he can hit high numbers year on year in the EPL. He's the finished article, coming off his best-ever season, and exceeds in every striking area that we lack in. He's not gonna take excessive wages and he's here until he retires, and we know that he definitely wants to come. Plus, Pep Guardiola is apparently insistent that he's the man for the job, and I trust his judgement when it comes to this sport.

Another good post and more sense from you mate.

Foden Kane Sterling
Grealish KDB
Rodri
Zinchenko Dias Stones Walker
Ederson

So close

Look at the fucking balance to that man.

Any starting front three which doesn't include Foden is the wrong front three.

I just thought pep might put Foden in midfield with KDB

Grealish Kane Sterling front three yes please

I actually dont rate that much at all. I think that is a drop off in level from previous seasons and players like Sergio, Sane both silvas , foden.
The only one for me out of that front 3 is sterling. Grealish could develop under Pep given time... Kane..just dont see it despite his stats. Sure he will score loads against average prem teams but against the best I dont see it

Eventually I see that happening but not just yet. Not beyond the realms of possibility though.

Really? Why didn't you say something sooner?

I bet Kane doesn’t know about these ‘noises’

In tight games against top opposition with chances at a premium he could well be key.

The initial reports were fee agreed but player's agent denied any move. Now it's terms agreed but fee to be sorted with Inter?

Apparently. I don’t get it either to be honest
