Harry Kane

The club should've have an alternative, if things doesn't go the direction they thought it should. And currently we do not have that. Simple logic actually.
But if there are no suitable alternatives as the club have decided then you don’t settle for something you don’t want or need. They want Kane if they can’t get Kane they don’t want an inferior alternative. Let’s not start listing “alternatives” either because that hasn’t gone well this week
 
We didn't need Grealish. Yeah, he is a great player but if you look at the bigger picture the first thing what we should've done is signing a striker. If that means our budget got limited because of that, and therefore we don't have the money anymore to replace a strike, which we currently also do not have, then it is a not so clever decision.
Im a bit fuzzy this morning so could you help me out and spell out the clubs big picture as I cannot recall seeing it printed. Thanks
 
But that 'simple' deal took an age, this will rumble on until a couple of days before the window slams shut
Probably will but so what if it does. As long as he’s signed before it shuts that doesn’t matter. He can train with Spurs get fit and come to City. Why does it need to happen quickly. It was never going to happen quickly. As for Grealish that was a pretty straightforward deal considering the amount of money involved. He was signed 2 weeks after the euros
 
I agree Levy is more of a liability than an asset. The reluctance to negotiate a wantaway player will always affect them when it come to players agents. Agents will be looking for shorter contracts, higher cost contracts or breakpoints in the contracts to a fixed period or cost
I think there is a good chance Spurs will sell at the 11th hour because in the circumstances they'd be foolish not to but it's Levy's call. In the meantime City will have to work out if there is a fall-back plan. I really would go for Lacazette if fit. I've always rated him. Top quality striker and like Giroud an excellent foil for forwards around him.

I don't think anything will happen now until the last days of the window.

But we can be certain that the club looked at the alternatives. Haaland is an impossibility this summer, as ourselves and Chelsea both found out. Then as well as Kane, we have monitored the likes of Lukaku, Darwin Nunez, Andre Silva, Danny Ings, Patson Daka. These are all names that we saw linked with City in the recent past. But what if the club looked at all the data on them, all the reports, and decided ONLY Kane fits the bill out of all the attainable strikers this summer? If that’s the case, as it very much appears to be, then as much as we don’t like it, the sensible approach if we don’t get Kane is to keep our powder dry for when someone else is available that does meet our needs. It’s a total waste of money to buy someone that can’t do what Pep wants from this striker purchase.
