Harry Kane

[Gabriel]

Been emptyhading the shed ready for a car boot sale. Kane wasn't hiding in the shed, and I decided not to bother trying to sell Mendy at the car boot sale.

Rather than trawling through x amount of pages from early this morning, can somebody kindly tell me if there have been any updates on this on-going saga.

Many thanks.

jrb.

Just read all of the pages for you. None.

Offer them a straight swap Sterling for Kane. If they argue the toss throw Mendy in.

Offer them Mendy and Sterling for Kane. If they argue the toss, tell them we'll keep Mendy.

How does Vardy fit into this team?

Left back?

He can put the ball in net. Has pace and with players like debruyne and Grealish they could provide the ammunition. I am talking one season If we didn’t get Kane. He has more goals in him than any player currently at the club

Do you honestly believe Leicester would consider selling - ridiculous suggestion

Haha do we have to...

This may be what you think we should do - but as a club it just isn't how we operate - some of it is related to the culture of our owners - who wont want to be seen throwing offers around and having them rejected - and some of it is the modus operandi we have inherited with the Barcelona management team we have running the club. We could throw whatever we want at Mbappe - and PSG may well accept but the player doesn't want to join us - so its futile and it would be embarrassing.

We don't make speculative bids - we find out via the agent if the player is up for the move and agree outline terms - we then approach the club and establish whether they will do business and if so at what price. We then negotiate around that price if its acceptable etc. But we don't make speculative bids and if at any point we don't get the right vibe from the player or the selling club we walk away. With Kane we know the player is up for the move, we know Levy has entered into negotiations - if Kane wasn't for sale he would have shut this down months ago and he hasn't, Txiki et al have got this and they need to focus on getting Kane - not throwing bids around for players whom we will not land in this transfer window - and that will make our owners look desperate and unprofessional.

You should be forced to read this everytime somebody visits the transfer forum.

spot on

I personally hope we do get Kane but as a short term back up I would have a look at Vardy. Surely he would not command a huge fee at his age.

ha second post in nine brilliant years and that is what you have

Absolute disaster the state of our affairs regarding our striking options.
Really worrying that we’ve let it come to this! Ridiculous to allow Messi to go to PSG and miss out on Kane. Crazy from the board.

Number 9!! Any number 9! Hahaha I've seen worse shouts to be fair.

Vardy is a counter-attacking player. Even at his current age he still does nearly all of his damage on the break and by getting in behind defenders playing too high. We play against 0-0-10 formations nearly every game. It doesn't compute. He'd be better than Torres, probably, but not sure that's a high bar at the moment.

Left back?

Okay, now I'm listening.
