Let’s not start the pity party in here wishing him to leave us, he done fuck all over the two legs like the rest of em.
I've got no time at all for this "save yourself, Harry!" rhetoric. I wouldn't hold it against him if he wants to leave but do I want him to go so he can achieve success somewhere else? Absolutely not.

It's bordering on criminal that we've basically wasted the career of the best player any of us will ever see in a Spurs shirt but it is what it is at this point, I still don't want to see him winning anything anywhere other than with Spurs.

No but if I'm being honest I want them all gone. Start again maybe we can have 2 or 3 strikers. But we all know we'll send Kane to United and we'll end up with Weghourst

I think we’re screwed without him but at the same time I’m kinda looking forward to moving to a new era without him. I’m bored to death of every year reading where he might be going and the whole Kane needs to win something rhetoric that’s shoved down our throats every week. As irreplaceable as he is it’s been toxic for years and I think maybe now is the time to just move on.

Hope he’s off this summer. Get the fee and rebuild.

Son as well but no one in their right mind would pay more than tuppence for him in this mug form.

Annoying he’s done nothing in 3 key games. Probably is time to cash in hopefully get big money and have a reset with a new forward who’s younger and build a full press side.

Don’t let this awful fucking defensive football cloud any judgement on this great man, no striker in the world would look anything but bang average in this side, it’s amazing he has the amount of goals this season that he has. Take him out our side and we are mid table at very best!

Exactly this.

How anyone can expect him to save us every game when we are so predictable with so little creativity is beyond me. Teams just man mark Kane and have a couple of others around him knowing that if they don't give him time and space they nullify us.

Its to the point you've seen Harry having to try to beat 2 or 3 players recently, which isn't even his strength.

He has to come deep to try and influence play because we are that poor.

Dont blame the one world class player we have for not being able to do the impossible every game, its the system.

Harry is going to thrive in a team that creates space and chances for him.

We don't play to his strengths we play with the hope that he will do something extraordinary every game to win it for us.

Its not sustainable or realistic and every team wr play knows this. Stop Kane and you stop Tottenham.

Absolutely this……..but I think mid table is a tad optimistic…..

He is having incredible stats for a player in the team that can't even do 2xg(last time in October IIRC), and often has less than 1xg. He doesn't press and takes free kicks for some reason, but he's one of the few players on the planet who will always be productive, even in shittiest possible system. His ability to drop deeper and make diagonal passes gives us so many options tactically, too bad that Son and Deki can't make use of it anymore.

I was at the game yesterday, and Kane was head and shoulders above the rest of the team. Everything even remotely postive went through him. He was able to switch play, open up spaces for others and hold up the ball. The big issue was both Kulu and Son have lost any ability to take on their defenders and we only started to take advantage when Poro came on.

That's because he's genuinely world class, and it shows.

I know it’s not over yet but for him to go through his career with us and not win a trophy is an absolute travesty and also shows everything that is wrong with this club. I know there’s a strong argument that he didn’t turn up when it really mattered but he’s been head shoulders above the others and if he does go he can go with his held high…

This, and as others have said the same applies to all of our front four (less so Richarlison as we've not seen it in our colours, but at worst he's a tbc).
