Agreed. But imagine a front two of Haaland and Kane!I think the Kane ship has sailed as far as we are concerned.
We'd need them, though, with the way our defence is playing this season!

I wouldn’t disagree that he is a very good player and a great goal scorer, but I still think that we got a much better deal with Haaland. Kane is 29, Haaland 22. Levy apparently wanted more than double what we paid for Haaland. I think that there are greater things to come from Erling and even if he moved on after 5 years, we would recover a handsome profit.Still think we should have broken the bank for him and paid what they wanted because he is worth it. Great player. If it were my money and I was on the board I would have put the Grealish money into the deal and some and not bothered with that deal to secure Kane
I do not say it should have been at the expense of or instead of Haaland.

I’m relieved that we have a board that has a better understanding of the football business than you doStill think we should have broken the bank for him and paid what they wanted because he is worth it.

I know that you didn’t say at the expense of Haaland, but do we need 2 players like that? My opinion is that we don’t, especially as Haaland will possibly get supported more in the future by Alvarez.I do not say it should have been at the expense of or instead of Haaland.

I'd rather have Haaland and Alvarez. The latter could give 'Arry twenty yards start and get to the other set of goals before him.Agreed. But imagine a front two of Haaland and Kane!

I hate to think what the RDAH meedya would say about that!I'd rather have Haaland and Alvarez. The latter could give 'Arry twenty yards start and get to the other set of goals before him.
Very rare do we play with a two up front although Kane is more of a number 10 nowadays.Agreed. But imagine a front two of Haaland and Kane!
