The signing of Grealish for 100m is a major show of power, but for me the signing of a striker was far more vital and indeed a necessity.Not flapping or panicking, honest but....
Our Chairman said in his end of season video we were going to be going big this summer and I am afraid that signing Grealish (albeit a transfer record etc.) alone is not going big IMO.
Let's not kid ourselves, if we don't sign a striker (any striker) between now and the transfer window closing, we won't win the league or Champions leave, it is that simple.
As for Kane and this shirt business, I cannot believe for one minute we promised him any number and gave it to someone else, otherwise you have to wonder what is going on with our negotiations. IF that happened I would understand why Kane would be pissed off to be fair.
The only reason I am not in full flapping mode is that I trust those running the club to do what is needed and what has been said etc. and that is what keeps the faith that someone is coming in.
Missing out on Kane if he is our only striker target is a huge problem.
