Harry Kane

That's the biggest reason I'm not sold on Kane, I've never seen him make the difference in a big game or on the big stage, for England or Spurs. He averages consistent numbers, but he has never proven himself in the big moments. And that's precisely what we need.

We score enough against the dross in the league as it is, we need someone to make a difference in the big moments like Aguero did. Kane would definitely improve us, but I'm just not sold that he's that player.

Tbf usually when spuds play anyone decent they are that defensive Kane is usually well in own half as the first outlet ball for them to release son or an other speedy guy.
Is his chance conversion rate lower against the decent sides or is just he doesn’t get chances against them? I ve not watch Spurs enough against anyone else to say either way but by same token don’t recall thinking fuck me he inherently badbuy’s shooting boots and missed a bucket load of chances against a big club. In our big games where we fail it’s not usually a case if not creating enough chances and that’s why I think Kane would drastically improve us.

There seems to be an arrogance that we can just snap our fingers next season and sign Haaland.

United have shown that they can blow us out of the water when it comes to transfer fees and wages. In recent seasons they’ve signed, Maguire, Sanchez, Fred and Fernandes who we were all strongly linked to.

That’s without mentioning the likes of Madrid, Bayern and PSG who will be closely monitoring the situation.

It appears that City’s style is to get the player to agree terms, only have eyes for City and then deal with the club. Haaland’s camp on the other hand seem keen on keeping all of his options open and having a bidding war for his services.

For me, giving up the chance to sign Kane this season on the off chance we can get Haaland next season is pure stupidity.

If Levy refuses to sell, that’s a different matter and we should then go all out for Haaland next summer. But deliberately not signing Kane and then missing out on Haaland next summer would be a clusterfuck of epic proportions.

Spot on, exactly my thoughts.

We can’t wait until next summer and then end up in the bidding war and miss out on Haaland, that’d be a disaster.
 
I really can't be arsed with the narratives that are going to emerge if we seal this transfer after losing today.

Panic buying, being forced to cave in to Levy's demands etc.

Its bad enough that all the Spurs fans 2 weeks ago were adamant it would be 200m, 180m straight cash have now had a collective change of mind and are insisting they only ever said 160 straight cash.

By the time the deal is done at 120 plus add ons they will have decided that was always Levy's price and we could have got the deal done 2 months ago.


Whoever scheduled this game today is a **** of the highest order.

Watch for the phrase "City must not *really* want him". That has been briefed from Spurs.
 
I said this had to be tied up and done by Friday. I stand by that and the dithering over a few million may cost us Kane. If that’s the case we need a plan b or this season could very difficult. Worrying times tbh, let’s hope I’m wrong.
