Harry Kane

[hello]

They have the top 8 trophy to fight for.

And the finish above Arsenal one, they could do the double!

This news wouldn't have been a last minute thing. Kane doesn't put that out without days of preparation. City, Spurs, Kane and anybody potentially involved would have known well in advance this was happening. The Ronaldo links come thick and fast days before this announcement, those aren't happening for the reason you suggest.

All signs point to both city and Kane thinking Levy’s silence as a negotiating tactic and both were playing a game he wasn’t taking part in as it turned out.

Delooney doesn't get it at all, what is he on about here.....

Good luck to Kane regardless of whether he genuinely wanted to stay or Levy priced him out. Whilst I am uneasy about us being light up front I was queasy about us spending over £100M on Kane. He’s good but not that good. Plus I would hate City help to fund a Spurs revival. They have won nothing for years except for their Chairman being the “best negotiator “ and are unlikely to be challenging soon. Hopefully City can find a Dias type signing

I know the majority are gutted, personally felt a bit like when I heard the CAS news. City will move on and up, no way is Kane worth the same as Mbappe.

Saving this 'Gem' for later publication ........

Please do.

I would be delighted to be wrong.

Glad I was one of the 828 who voted against the signing of Harry Kane.

The last 5 games Spurs beat us, were without Harry Kane.

Same here. £80M tops for me. Silly money once it went beyond £100M.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

I disagree with the consensus.

Kane is decent - top 10 maybe but we were being asked to spend top 5 money. And in the next 12 months I'm sure that the likes of Haaland / Mbappe will come available.

If Haaland is available on a £70m option next year it's crazy to me to buy a lesser player at double that cost. And Mbappe could be free - yes you have to spend the difference in wages and it will be obscene numbers but that is the way its going. I'd rather give £150m to Haaland in wages than give it to Spurs to make a deal happen.

I'm good with this. Now over to the CR7 thread (lol).

It's Liam time

We didn't do too badly without one last season. And before you mention the CL final, that had nothing to do with having no striker.

I think we were lucky last year, lucky that the rest of the teams were so shit they let us come back from an awful start, spurs shown how easy we are to beat and that's without their prized possession.
