Charlie Kane receiving a roasting on Twitter which isn’t surprising given he initiated this shit storm!



Got to admire his brass neck! ?

If it ends up with the club taking better options then we will all be thanking him and Harry.

Simon Jordan gets it!


Christ Sam Matterface is a fucking moron, how transparent can you get?

Also no idea why people keep peddling £100m as the asking price, if anyone offers that Levy will laugh them out of the room. Hazard went for £140m with a year left ffs.

I have a very low opinion of the UK media, but on this occassion he is stating a fact. We borrowed 175M last year from the Covid Corporate Funding Facility and were due to pay it back this motnh (or very early June) but have requested a one year extension.
You understand that is loan at literally less than
1% i.e free money. Why wouldn't Levy extend on those terms? & no chance spurs used any where near all of that loan.

Apologies if I'm late to the party on this one, but I've just got around to watching MOTD from last night and was absolutely shocked to hear Jonathan Pearce begin his commentary by saying "Harry Kane steps out for his last game for Spurs at this ground", before interviewing Mason afterwards and saying "Tell us what Kane meant to this club".

What the actual fucking fuck? Have people been raging about this already and I just missed it? I have never heard such absolutely outrageous unprofessionalism from a commentator in my life! Mason called him out when he responded, saying "Meant? It's not meant, he means a lot to this club, he's a Tottenham Hotspur player".

I've never liked Pearce but that fat fuck has really crossed the line with this one. It wasn't even the last game of the season, let alone Spurs having actually sold Kane.

What an absolute ****.
During commentary when Kane had a shot from a tight angle in the second half, Pearce said, “In which should be his last game at the stadium.”

Should have stuck to radio, the useless blancmange.

No doubt, but the timing hasn’t helped the end of this campaign, being a very unwelcome distraction whatever Mason may say in the PC.

Also, 99% sure AG it was due next summer, not this.

The pun ‘Cityzen Kane’ just dawned on me and now I’m worried he’ll be off to City this summer on that basis alone.
Two months later. Bastards.

IF he stays this summer(doubtful), the only way he stays with us past next summer is IF we win 2 trophies next year or the league. For that to happen, Levy is going to need to doll out the funds this summer. Skriniar, Grealish, Sabitzer, Aarons, Pereira. Or players of that quality. That’s likely a £200m outlay. Not going to happen, unfortunately

"Attack the fucking ball, man"
I love how Kane says he's interested in discussing his future and open to the possibility of leaving and all the sudden everyone has become a professional lip reader as if there's not entire YouTube channels dedicated to pointing out how hilariously impossible lip reading actually is and you can just fill in whatever so long as you get the syllables and tone right.

Or C - Perhaps he stays one more season (he's under contract) and we sell him in 12months for 120m perhaps with more buyers at the table?

I'm not banking on him staying, I think a huge amount hinges on the new manager and some progression on the team improvements but no option is likely to end in us getting zero for him, it's not as binary as 120m or nothing.
Well if we are going to let him go for 120m in a years time (why would there more buyers at the table? ) we might as well let him go for 140-150m now, after all it's not like him staying next season guarantees us to win anything plus do we want all this transfer talk unsettling everyone for another year.

Kane has watched the likes of Modric, Walker and Bale move on and win it all.

Eriksen and Trippier leave recently and one wins Serie A and the other La Liga (should do anyway)

He's as good as all of those players and watched it all unfold.

We haven't shown enough ambition, we didn't go up another level or two.

I love Kane to bits and he's been loyal, but hand on heart I wouldn't begrudge him leaving.

This is DeJa Vu all over again with Tottenham and our star players. We dropped a bollock. If you go to sleep too long you play catch up for years. United and Arsenal are prime examples.

not trying to rewrite history - but apart from that crazy goal in 2016 against Arsenal at home which briefly took us to the top - I cannot imagine any other goal from Harry that sticks to my mind as a game changer - but for Son I can think of all his goals in the champions league against Man City, Lucas will always have Amsterdam
In a round about way - if he leaves - he leaves - get the money and move on !
If what you are trying to say there is...how many games where Kane grabbed the match by the scruff of the neck and by sheer force of desire and/or example drove the team on rather than him just doing his job to try and score goals it might make a bit more sense.

I would also add the 5-3 Chelsea game at the lane. I think his opening goal came out of nowhere, showed huge fuck u determination to hold off the players and sent a shockwave around the team and the stadium and jammed a huge syringe of adrenaline into every fan then we steamrolled them.

I do/did have a slight issue with Kane (and Dier, and Eriksen) in that they talk a good match off the pitch or bang on about winning things but i rarely see them aggressive at their team mates, driving them on, screaming "come on" etc. I'd even find it acceptable to go running over to the manager and hand over mouth say "Change something, we have fucking NO midfield?!" or something.

Dembele and Lamela for example did/do lose their shit sometimes and will stick the boot in to get things going.

I am resigned to the fact that Kane is leaving - so I would rather want our club to get as much out of the deal as possible.

I am disgusted at the blatant 'manufacturing consent' being done by media houses regarding Kane's proposed fee. Whether its Neville interview or Micah Richards or Talksport -Sam Matterface (& few more)...they are forming a narrative that 100m is more than enough for Kane.

Such blatant narrative was done when other PL players went for big money. Whether , this will make any difference to Levy or buying club -no idea. But this certainly puts a seed of doubt in public perception and forces a narrative.
