Nuno is the new Spurs man. Jorge Mendes client. I'm sure Kane is ours, barring serious injury.
The reaction to his Euro 2020 displays is predictably over the top - this is the last I'll say on the matter.
He's not crocked, not seriously. He's not at his best.
But I had reason to go back through the papers earlier this week, and noticed that both Mourinho, and Joachim Low, had commented upon his role for England in the run up to the Germany game. Both made the same observation - he was sacrificing himself for the team.
They could see it. I could see it. But people get silly specs on when watching England. So confused by watching players from other teams, a manager who (and no matter who it is) is more than likely going to end being thrown in the stocks, and with he whole thing a ridiculous spectacle anyway, it clouds people's better judgement.
Without Kane occupying both centreforwards for 90 minutes, then Sterling would never have had the spaces to run into. It's why Sterling fell off a cliff after Aguero got dumped from the team. With a midfield of Philips and Rice the best we could field - and with Shaw so limited as a LB - this was always England's best tactic.
Interesting post.
One thing that people don't know when they are crticising Kane's performance is what he manager has asked / told him to do.
Rather than, for instance, him being someone that cannot press opposing defenders hard, he may have been told not to. He may never be Gabby on that score but I am not convinced he couldn't do more if asked to by, say Pep.
He's still not my first, second or even third choice to join us as a striker but I do know that he hasn't had many goal attempts in the games so far but he made sure he netted from the best chance he had and brought a very good save out from another. If he did join City, the likelihood remains that he'd have a high number of goal contributions.

Going off his character - Nuno won't want players that don't want to be there

nuno will also want cash to spend of which spurs have fucking none!
AgreedGabriel Jesus : 123 starts plus 72 as a substitute. 82 goals. Pretty decent record in my eyes. I reckon that equates to a very good minutes to goal ratio.
Never said he was shit, never said I wouldn’t keep him
But I certainly think Kane is a lot better
Jesus would score more goals if he played week in week out but I think he is best as a wide forward like STerling. Both players imo suffered this season because of the absence of a central striker.Agreed

Doubt Nuno is even getting a day in who stays or goes. He might just be happy that he's got to keep a job within Prem. I firmly believe it's still down to Kane himself, if he pushes for a move it'll happen.Going off his character - Nuno won't want players that don't want to be there
Going off the Euro's Nuno may be thinking 100m plus for that donkey, yes pleaseGoing off his character - Nuno won't want players that don't want to be there
They will get Ake as part of the deal, good move for all.Spurs need to rebuild their defence. I think they will say Kane's not for sale, buy defenders, and then let Kane go. IMO you don't your club captain at the club against his wishes.
