It's Quiet 16 - Txiki grinders

[Legal Alien]

Bloody hell mate Cancelo's in the form of his life.

Yeah I know and he's playing great, but he was bought as a right back and i think will move there when Walker is done.

He wouldn't need pace, or to keep up. Most our games we are up against a parked bus he'd just need to be in the box ready to finish. He'd actually help on the break due to his passing its probably why pep likes him. He'd still score 20 plus here with the amount of chances created he's a natural finisher we don't have one currently.

But he's 29 and an injury concern. That's the only reason I don't want him. But Pep wants him. I think we might not like it but we have to deal with it. The board will get Kane if Pep wants him. I honestly think he comes in January.

In the summer Tottenham were not looking at strikers but now for a couple weeks the reports have been they want Vlahovic as a Kane replacement. They also will pay Fiorentinas price.

Transfer merry go round perhaps

Torres - barca
Kane - City
Vlahovic - Tottenham

i really really hope you are wrong

 

[simon23]

If his form for England is irrelevant because of the 'level' of the teams they've played, then surely he gets the same pass against the top PL teams given the level of the team he's playing in? It's a bit hypocritical otherwise.

The gap between playing the farmers of Macedonia for England compared with playing any of the top 6 for Spurs in considerably bigger ......

pep shouldnt be before the club

spot on.....we need to think beyond Pep......being left ith a 30 plus year old kane with fucked ankles after Pep leaves puts us straignt back to the point where we need a striker..the only difference is we dont have the genius of Pep to be able to play without a striker

I think Gumzy may be correct but agree...Kane is yesterday’s player

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

I reckon it was the Mendy stuff tbh.

Definitely, he's been a different player since Mendy,s been banged up

However in an alternative universe, Pep gets Kane, signs a 4yr contract and wins another 10 trophies with Kane banging in 100+ breaking the prem record and setting records?

In your Dreamland, pal. Kane is a yesterday's back o' the net spud chin man. We don't need him anywhere near our club. He's almost a mercenary because spurs are wank.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Reeks of Pep’s version of the Fergie / van Persie signing. Board must veto it.

Imagine comparing Pep with that horrific prick, and referring to him as " Fergie".

He’ll have a long wait

Would be nice wouldn't it. Who wouldn't want that in fairness. Could see a couple of those happening tbf.

But can you really see Kane scoring 100 league goals in 4 years? thats 25 goals a season at least. Each season. Something he hasn't managed once in the last 3.5. Heck give him an extra year to do it, assuming he plays 5 years for us (doubt he would play even 4 at the top level myself) thats 20 goals a season. He has only managed that once in the last 4.

I guess that's why you said in an alternative universe.

Yeah I can. He's getting those numbers in a shite team and I mean shite.

 

[Coatigan]

Except he really isn't though. 17, 19, 23, 1.
That's not going to add up to 100 goals in 4 seasons.

He would have to improve his average by 10 goals a season to have a chance at breaking Shearer's record (which i just don't get the obsession for), and that's without a post 30s decline kicking in, which seems apparent already. And yes, I know, many players play well into their 30s. Many don't, not as effectively. Strikers in particular.

In our team he could get them numbers

Walker will become a central defender for us when he loses his pace

 

[domalino]

Maybe £16,000 a week gives him a round figure of £10,000 that would help towards his £150 a week mums board
Would be mad to lose this kid over a few thousand £

Very bold of you to assume he's paying tax.

City will be paying McAtee Player Services Ltd, who'll pay 20% corporation tax and pay him (and his mum and anyone else he wants) in dividends.

 

[domalino]

Cancelo will never be our first choice RB.

He'll be 30 by the time Walker is done, and it would rely on Pep finding a left back who can do Walker's job shutting down half the pitch, and none of those exist at the moment.

 

[Brightwell’s left peg]

Right…I’d normally be all over a ‘it’s quiet’ thread, but if Kane is part of the discussion/narrative…I’m staying well clear as it will be way too stressful to read. Ignorance is bliss.

 

[Stoned Rose]

He just told City to double their offer!

Fair fucks to the kid. He’s fucking ace.

See you back here in an hour or so then mate... Ha ha
