I was slightly wrong. I just checked. Walker started 3 of our last 11 games in all competitions that season. The point was that Pochettino gave the green light for him to be sold to a domestic rival.Yes, Walker was dropped as he said he wanted to leave to go to City. Agree with what he says, but that bit was wrong.
I doubt it would happen, but hopefully being our 9 would be sufficient to appease. Not sure if you can change shirt number after the season has started at the same club. Also, not sure Jesus would give that number up.
To be frank I don't give a shit if he wanted number 10. Grealish is here, so Grealish is the priority. If he wanted number 10 so much why didn't he put in an official transfer request?

At this stage of the window? Because levy dragged it out KNOWING kane wants out? Keep him. Unhappy player, value will only drop,how the hell does that benefit you?Spurs fan in peace. I have been ocassionally skimming through the posts in this thread for the past couple of weeks just to get a guage of how likely City fans think the deal is to go through.
While reading through the posts, I realised that several of you have some misconceptions about Tottenham and Levy.
So, I want to dispell a couple of myths that I have repeatedly read:
1) Spurs need to sell Kane because they need the money
Anyone who has done any research on our stadium debt will know that is bullshit. The debt is spread over more than two decades and involves minimul interest payments every year.
In fact, the interest payment owed annually are a small fraction of the increase in matchday income as a result of our move from White Hart Lane. So, if anything we are now in a financially stronger position after moving to the new stadium.
Our wage bill is also extremely managable compared to the other big clubs in the league
2) Levy is a bad chairman who cares more about winning in negotiaitons than about Tottenham's long-term sucess.
If you look at how much Spurs have grown commercially worldwide since ENIC bought the club, you will obviously realise that this is crap.
The reason we are now among Europe's top ten richest clubs is because of Levy. Income wise, we were far off the pace of the traditional 'big four' when he took over as chairman but owing to the new stadium and our commercial growth, we are now in the same league as the likes of Liverpool and Arsenal in terms of the revenue we generate.
One also has to keep in mind that Spurs are a self-sustaining club, who do not have owners pumping money in. So, the only way for us to keep competing near the top over the long-term was to build a new stadium.
To blame Levy for Tottenham's lack of recent silverware is harsh when we constantly keep bottling semifinals and finals.
However, the team has certainly improved steadily on the pitch. Last season was the first time Spurs finished outside the top six in around 12 years, which shows how far we have come from the 90s an early 2000s.
3) Tottenham are a selling club
People keep mentioning Carrick and Berbatov, without realising that those sales were 15 years ago.
In both Modric's and Bale's case (which were also a decade ago), Levy actually stuck to his guns and refused to sell them to a domestic rival. In fact, he actually rejected a bigger bid from Chelsea for Modric before chosing to sell him to Real Madrid 12 months later.
The Kyle Walker case was different as he had fallen out with Pochettino, who started Trippier ahead of him in our final 10 games of the 2016/17 season. Pochettino wanted Walker sold.
If I were a betting man, I would still expect Kane to be a City player by the end of the transfer window but you will likely have to pay upwards of 150m at this stage of the window.

Not sure continually increasing your debt classifies as self-sustaining.

If you don't need the money, can you tell me why levy furloughed your non playing staff then ?Spurs fan in peace. I have been ocassionally skimming through the posts in this thread for the past couple of weeks just to get a guage of how likely City fans think the deal is to go through.

Proper cnuts trick given the state of the nation at the time, especially if you had the dough all the time as you appear to be inferring above..!
Maybe you’re right about the debt maybe we are right about FFP won’t stop you or other fans beating us with itSpurs fan in peace.

when does this “long term success “ pay off with Levy. How many trophies have you won while he’s there selling your best players
as for selling club well you’ve mentioned all the best players you’ve sold under levy and his strategy for long term success
hello, spurs fan in peace, we have heard all this before ,you're 1 billion in debt, over 20 years that's 50m a year without interest, you squad wont qualify for the champs league for the foreseeable future , i keep hearing your matchday revenue will go up, so will the costs, your fucked ,arsenal were in a better place than you when they bought the stadium , you have a club no half decent manager wants to go too, your better players always want to leave, you lot should be going mental at levy no licking his bum, what is it with north london football fans , so out of touch but up their own arses its unbelievable , keep burying your head in the sand, your fucked and you cant see it
We actually owe £37m-a-year but the there are various ways to refinance this. The club have raised £250m for the sale of private placements made through the Bank of America at 2.8 per cent interest (£7m-a-year). The loan period can also be extended.
This is just a fraction of the increase in matchday revenue owing to our move to the new stadium.To put it in context, we generated £1m from just beer and food sales at a single NFL match at the stadium last year.
