Harry Kane

So the move's dead then. We spent all summer obsessed with this move, and even turned our noses up at Messi on a free to pursue it. Bonkers.
Messi to PSG was done before the media show played out. If you think Messi agreed to go to Paris 24hrs after his award winning departure from Barca then you are being extremely naive.
 
For the last time, anyone that says that we don't need a striker because "we did just fine without one last season" is forgetting that last season was an anomaly where everything went in our favor. Chelsea were without a proper goalscorer the entire season (remember, their top PL scorer was Jorginho who only scored pens) and had Frank Lampard for half the season. Liverpool had half of their first team injured the whole season. United are stronger. PSG are significantly stronger. Plus, if Lewandowski was not injured before the second leg against PSG last season, it probably would've been a City vs. Bayern semi-final, and who knows how that would've went. So yes, we do need a striker this season if we want to keep up with the other teams
Someone I respect greatly has dismissed this post, but it is near the money.
 
If PSG knew he was likely to be available, so would we. They made a move for him we didn't.
He had an offer on the table, knew what was available to him at City and signed for PSG. I find it hard to understand why people are confused when top level players snub us, we are not the be all and end all like some think… Not yet anyway. Haaland the perfect example, he’ll not join City and will drag us through it with promises then sign for Real with Mbeppe.
 
Cheers Txiki. Good to have you on these forums.

Every single credible source in the media said we didn't make a move for him this summer. Pep himself publicly said we weren't in for him.

If you're going against that overwhelming tide then maybe we should be asking you what you know.
 
Just think in a weeks time.



All the weirdos that post in here (and probably the matchday thread) will not be heard from til mid december as we all return to the main forum and off topic where they thankfully seldom venture ;-)

Last year. All the evidence we have suggests our offer wasn't on the table this summer.

But you're right, he may have snubbed us anyway.
