Harry Kane

[TheThirdDeano]

What youo mean good Kanes from Kanes camp? Did you mean news? What news?

Hahaha! sorry didn't see
that should have been good noises

 

[DrBlueBob]

Maybe they don't want replacements and need to bank the cash?

That's a fair amount of brinksmanship if Spurs really do need the cash.

 

[Octavian]

That's because we were playing second string line ups for about 4 months.

True

 

[Octavian]

€200m is far too much. Levy can keep his unhappy, depreciating asset.

 

[DrBlueBob]

Totally agree and how many times a season do we play a team that genuinely gives us a game?

I would say 10 at most, and those are the games that show how much we miss a high class goal scorer, those games we may get one chance and we seldom take it and then suffer.

I haven't been at all concerned about getting a striker in until I read that. Annoyingly, I think you could well be right.
I still have a lot of faith in young Torres though.

 

[DrBlueBob]

I mean, it has to be last push, there’s only 6 days left! Physically impossible to have that many pushes left surely

We'll be needing an epidural at this rate.

The poster was factually correct, you are simply speculating.
We could have won the Big one if Pep didn't tweek the winning formula

I'd mentally blocked that major fuck up out of my mind.

Back to dribbling by the window

 

[ejdmcfc]

My opinion FWIW on another day of absolutely fuck all happening?

Deal has been done for time. Announced last minute so Levy, being the penny-pitching cue ball that he is, can give it the ‘we tried everything to keep him’ and ‘we didn’t have enough time to find a replacement’ so he can spend copious amounts of money on debt reduction and getting Jamie Oliver in to do the corporate scrans.

Now I’m off for a brew and to throw arrows at my Fabrizio Romano dartboard.

Couldn't agree more. £150m is a lot to pay for this fine margin, but that's the footballing world City now inhabit.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Kane’s a better defender according to the computer game developers/football experts at FIFA. I wonder if he can play left back?

Been saying this for weeks!

 

[Superace]

I think we may have to accept this is unlikely to happen. I started to doubt it once Kane played on Sunday. Not impossible there could be another change but I think that's unlikely. Hopefully we do have a plan b as we need a striker.

 

[Academica]

Ok i'll go out on a limb then. The poster said we nearly won a quad without a striker. I'll say with one of the two talked of here, we would have won at least a treble, including the big one.

Spurs nearly won the big one, was it lack of a striker let them down in the final.

Still fucking furious at that.

 

[DrBlueBob]

One of few low points in a very successful season. Can’t win them all

Just a couple of bridges too far. I, for one, soon got over the disappointment of losing out in the two cups though. I wouldn't swap our season for Chelsea's, nor their transfer window come to that.

Spot on,it had fuck all to do with a striker

 

[oakiecokie]

Levy will NOT want to spend a single penny of that money, the later the better.

I have thought about that myself in all honesty Pb.

 

[cbl]

no news is good news imo. if this deal was dead, we would’ve walked away a while ago. still convinced he will be a city player.

 

[DrBlueBob]

I used to think that this was a greed issue to do with bonuses but I had a conversation with someone a few years back who is more acquainted with these contracts and it makes sense for a player not to do it.

If a player puts in a transfer request then they automatically lose access to bonuses no matter what happens. So it's very likely that Kane would put in this request, lose millions of pounds, and Levy still refuse to sell. Most of the time a transfer request is a symbolic statement and that symbol is often pointless.

I didn't know about the bolded bit. Cheers.

Yes, they played Kane who was about 20% fit

Hopefully 'crowning'
