Harry Kane

if its kane then so be it, but there must be a Sregio type player somewhere just about to break through

for 100 million or more you have to take into account how he is performing now, we know he can do it on the big stage thats if you include spuds as the big stage but will he regain the level he had a couple of seasons ago, we shoulldnt realy be spending 100m in the hope he reproduces what he has done previous, for that kind of money it should be risk free and he should be fitting into the squad and hit the ground running, his dip in form is a big concern also his ankle problems, the possibility of the transfer and size of the fee could be playing on his mind, he may well be the next Fernando Torres type transfer if were not carefull

Completely agree.. you aren’t buying youth or potential.. the product you are paying big money for is meant to be in its prime. If there are any questions over physical decline and dips in form then you simply don’t invest as injuries aside, what you are paying a premium for is a “sure thing”. No one in their right mind could claim Kane is anywhere near being a “sure thing” at this moment in time.
 
He’s looked fairly average in the Euros, but it would be more than a bit premature to write him off on the basis of four games. He got 23 goals and 14 assists in 35 appearances last season. City will have scouted him relentlessly in that period, so you would hope they’d pick up on any significant decline in his ability. Wouldn’t be my first choice, but if Pep and Txiki decide he is the striker they want then we should probably trust their judgement.
Fair enough, but (with the caveat that our interest, the fee, and possible exchange players are all paper talk as yet) the possible spunking of £150m, exit of proven player(s), and budgetary impact on other signings it just doesn't seem good value. I'd rather see us take a chance on 3 X £50m well scouted players in an attempt to find the next kun, with the chance of recovering some money if two don't come good. Having said that, I'll be an immediate fan boy if Kane pulls on a blue shirt.

kane is 28 he has at least 4 seasons at the top level plus at city he won’t be playing with any slight knocks he rested till fully fit!
 
out of Mbappe,Haaland and Kane if either one of them was to flop at city Torres style the one that would lose big value is Kane, a couple of years down the road we unload and we would be very lucky to see half his transfer value, on the other two we could recover most of it,Haaland for me any day of the week even if we have to cough up more
