Harry Kane

He does have every right, yeah, but when the club he's in charge of running is so knackered financially and that same player is asking for a move then I personally think it's stupid to price him out of it.
Who said Spurs are knackered financially ?
Yes they have the stadium to pay for, but I think this talk is a red herring, at the end of the day Kane has 3 yrs left on his contract, Levy isn’t pricing him out of the market, it’s the media and football economics doing that. There’s too much noise in this transfer for me, and it doesn’t suit our club.

Truth is nobody on here has the faintest idea of their finances other than what they read on Twitter.....by people that also don't have any idea!
We can all have an informed guess....but that's all it is.

And every snide briefing to Matt Law (Daily Telegraph) from the Spurs camp (Levy) insisting that Kane is "not for sale" will just undermine the process even more. City don't like conducting their negotiations in the press. We don't need to do business with clubs that have zero respect for us. City have moved on from the days when we could be treated like mugs. Levy is behaving as if we are MK Dons.

I think the fact every decent available manager in Europe has turned them down after initial talks kind of points towards the fact they're knackered financially.

Possibly, but maybe their biggest problem is they have alot of players who are better in name than on the pitch who wouldn't get the same contract elsewhere so will be hard to shift, even if they aren't broke, they aren't going to buy more players on good contracts......which then would have them in a financial mess (or bigger mess depending on current financial status)
So sell to buy is not easy there, as losing Kane will take hard work to replace and unlike most of the others will not be replaced with same level, however much money they get for him.

Conte was ruled out of the running presumably (admittedly) because he wasn't guaranteed money to spend and now the ex-Roma coach has been ruled out because of a disagreement right at the end of negotiations. It's a pretty clean connection to make that they're not in the best place financially. IMO.
 
feel like we've just let this guy call harry kane "an average player" like it's nothing

same people will turn around and tell me gabriel jesus is world class lol
 
I doubt if he has another 120 premier league games in him. At 120 million, would be a cool match day fee of 1Million a game, plus his million a month wages, no re sale value.

Surely City, despite a majority of City fans voting to splash the cash, wouldn't contemplate that.
Why would they? Everything you say is pure speculation.

To be fair fonseca hasn’t actually turned down spurs. Tottenham instead decided to go with gattuso once it became apparent he was available. Pretty shitty move by spurs tbh
 
Levy could have made an absolute fortune if he'd played his cards right. Could have got 2-3x what he ended up getting for Eriksen had he sold him at the right time. Could have got an absolute wedge for Dele Alli at one point in time too. Not that many sellable assets now. Kane, Son, that's about it

A lot spunked on very average players (Doherty, Aurier, Lo Celso, Bergwijn, Ndombele etc.) in the meantime

Pretty much my earlier post....but naming players ;)
 
So tell me which bits are fact. Feel free to supply any evidence you feel supports your case.

57 % , a majority want City to sign Kane.
Source ; this thread.

Kane would be on a minimum of 250000 a week, 1 million a month.
Source; you think he would become English football biggest transfer and accept less.

All the shit on transfer forums is more or less speculation.
But clearly you think he will transfer for a lot less than 120, or would play considerably more than another 120 League games ?

He does not fit into our stated transfer policy, we have lost hundreds of millions during the pandemic, He will be 28, has bad ankles, I doubt very much the 57 % will get their way.

Spurs didn't want to make up the difference in the tax from his contract at Roma so they surely gives you some indication on where Spurs are financially...

Which player plays for mcfc and which player would cost the club £120 million.

Which player did we buy in his early 20 s and which player would make his debut as a 28 yr old

I’ve seen some reporting that. Journos close to spurs are saying they basically left fonseca at the alter once gattuso became available as he was the new DOF preferred choice.

Either way no one can argue spurs aren’t struggling financially but to what extent can be argued. They still have the stadium naming rights to sell and deadwoood to shift like aurier, sissoko, winks, Lucas etc. Basically my point is they aren’t entirely dependant on a Kane sale to stay afloat as some would have you believe. It will be extremely hard to land Kane but I really hope we can

What is your basis for saying that you doubt Kane has 120 more league games in him?

That vote wouldnt be accurate if Haaland was added to the mix,surely?
