Harry Kane

[andyhinch]

Delusion in that we are flat broke? Delusion that Harry is worth £100M? Delusion with what? Brexit and Covid have royally fucked us but we are no where near the situation clubs like Barca and Inter find themselves in.

I’m not saying you are, just that Harry is gone, don’t like him tbh but he’ll score goals

Mina will make Halands transfer an absolute circus, its the big pay day he has been waiting for since he moved him to Dortmund a 3-4 way pull with BM, Chelsea, United and yourselves.

We have no striker and dominant, I don't think it'd be hard from City's perspective to convince Haaland to come here over those other options, especially when you consider the boyhood aspect of it as well.

I don't think Mina will make it more difficult than Tottenham are making Kane right now. If Haaland wants the move, then any good agent will make that happen for their client.

Not wanted a transfer to go through more than this since the takeover to be honest.

Struggle to see any opposition to it from a City point of view. Blues worried about 100m to 130, 160 etc, would make more sense to pay the fee to get as close to 'guaranteed' goals as possible. No player tops him for that really.

He will make you unstoppable IMO, I don't hate him, I don't like how he has went about it but I have no anamosity towards him. He is worth more than £100M end of story.

Mina isn't a good agent, which is the problem. He will be looking at what club gives him the biggest fee.

Delusion in that we are flat broke? Delusion that Harry is worth £100M? Delusion with what? Brexit and Covid have royally fucked us but we are no where near the situation clubs like Barca and Inter find themselves in. If we were I highly doubt we would be in the market at all, even with the sale of Kane. As you say we would be pocketing the money to pay structured debt, which in itself makes fuck all sense. Paying £100M of £800M of debt will do very little to monthly debt repayments, you are bound to see that.

Its all funny money anyway, who cares? Its a product that is awash with wealth and those who invest it do best. The fact Spuds havent is no reason to get upset about the best players wanting to go and play for those who do. Its not like the old days when players would be happy to retire after winning the FA Cup against Coventry.

Just the age thing really. If he was 24 I'd be happy even at 160m.

The money is between the clubs, it’ll be what it’ll be, I’ve got absolutely no insight on that

Im not upset mate, I have seen most of the shite players do, Modric, Berbatov, Bale, the thing most people get wrong is that Levy is a seller he isn't he sells when his hand is forced but usually gets the outcome or money he wants. Again despite my name lately I am far from Levy's biggest fan for a lot of reasons, but I am glad he is in charge of this sale. If/when this deal goes though I'm pretty sure it wont be for £100m, if not il take the pelters. The friendly on the 15th should be entertaining.

Can't really dispute that. Think of the chances we create and miss. Kane converts the majority.

For me is worth more than 100m both to us and Spurs.

That's the obvious sticking point. But could also say it will be his last big move, so you'd project 4/5 maybe 6 years of lots of goals.

Business point of view is he then is worth nowt as appose to haaland for example who could still potentially profit on.

Seems the powers that be know this and still want him. I think all this talk would be forgotten come xmas when he's already on 15+ goals.

Of course it wont. It will be £125m with a **** load of add ons that nobody gets to know about that probably makes it about £160m. But flashing that about is unhealthy, so it will be paid but in whatever kind of unfathomable financial arrangement that money of this kind changes hands in. Get real.

Be nice to get a good compromise and not go through anything protracted, I’ll not hold my breath

If he stays fit, I see nothing less than 25 league goals for you. He isn't injury prone and is not slow. His problem for us since Eriksen went and for England is there is no creative central player. One thing Pep will need to tell him is to stay where he should be, and don't over do it. He tries to do to much in attack and defence, then he gets fatigued and then he gets injured.

He would be in more normal circumstances but I think Levy has miscalculated and alienated the player to the point that it has has become disruptive. I think Kane's market value should be around £120m given that it is highly unlikely that a buying club would sell Kane.

All things being equal, I would expect this transfer to happen now at around £120m but Levy is awkward and not necessarily in a good way for Spurs.

It amazes me that agents allowed to make so much money out of the game. The PFA is there to look after players. Why do they need agents? It's just money going out of the game.

Pretty sure Aguero has the best goals per minute ratio ever in PL history. Not sure why we let him go still

In other words he is carrying your team?

Although Kane's a great finisher, a lot of his goals come from the fact he's generally a high volume shooter, like Aguero was. He's not going to magically score all the chances we miss, in fact he'll miss a tonne too.

U read Modric's book, or Berbatov's, players who have good reason to pelt him, neither do. They say yes they were frustrated but both say that now they understand he wassimply doing his job. Again I am not his biggest fan but he has some a lot for us.
