Harry Kane

The Pandorica Opened said:
On the one hand, I get it. Kane isn't a superstar like that, he's not a flair player about to announce himself, he's not a signing that will break the internet. Another factor is that for many, he'll never quite feel like a "City player" in the way that Haaland could've done after years. For some, he'll always feel like "Harry from Spurs who came and did well for us", almost like an extra line of code to an already-existing algorithm, than an essential part of the code itself.

On the other, much bigger, hand -give your head a fucking wobble and get hyped about the best striker in the league.

He scores penalties like a psychopath. He's the biggest aerial threat since the Luftwaffe. He's been giving every part of the country trauma by slamming goals past every team in the Premiership for a decade. He's as clinical as a surgeon's knife. He can ping passes across the pitch that KDB would be proud of. He's willing to get back and defend. He's got every chance of ending up as the league's all-time top bagsman, he's wanking over the thought of coming here, and Pep Guardiola has been insistent that he's the right man for two years. I know all the flaws and risks, but I can't help but feel we're becoming a tad entitled as a fanbase for not being hyped up the rafters about this being a possibility.

It's nice to hear from someone who is an actual City employee, or at least knows what goes on in the meetings instead of just a fan who reads Twitter

Conversely, what have you heard that states that either of those players wants to come to City? Or that their transfers would be feasible at all? Anything from the boardroom?

Great, another itk. Who knows what Mbappe/Haaland are thinking.

Can you ask him why he doesn't want a move to the world's No 1 club team.

I don't appreciate you trying to make me look like a complete idiot thinking we are playing FIFA. Or some other mindless fucking game.
I don't remember saying we could click our fingers.
I said I'd have preferred we went for those players. That's all ...
Unfortunately for people that feel as I do Pep sounded completely hung up On Grealish and Kane

You are making yourself look like a complete idiot, no one has to do that for you.

Shame Pep is after two of the best players in our league, we shouldn't trust his judgement at all. It's only delivered us a few bits of silverware.

Let's go get Mbappe, I'm sure he would come to City now his club have signed Messi. And I'm sure Haaland wpuld rather leave now so Dortmund get the cash they deserve, rather than come next summer when he can pocket the fee instead.

I voted no as I want to sign Haaland, not Kane but I’d rather have Kane than no one. That wasn’t an option.

Same initially. Although Kane is a brilliant player who will score bags of goals for City. We definitely kicked the tyres with Haaland earlier in the year but you'd have to assume Dortmund's stance, and the spiralling costs of Alf & Mino precluded us going for him.

They both want too much money.
