Yeah, I just don’t think, in spite of United probably winning the Europa this season, that they’re actually that good or have noticeably bigger chances of winning the biggest trophies than us. I can’t see them winning a PL or CL any time soon
Bruno, Kane and Sancho trio would win them at least one big trophy. That's assuming Woodward doesn't screw up Sancho deal.

We’d be foolish to try and replace Kane with someone of Kane’s calibre - simply because there is no one. Who’s on the same level? Lewandowski? Haaland? Neymar? They’d cost the entire fee we receive for Kane and more.

Next level down you’ve probably got the likes of Lukaku, Griezmann, Benzema - again, not happening.

Best thing we could do is replace Harry with a decent enough striker or two, accepting they won’t be on his level, and spend the rest of the money improving the players behind them.
We’ve seen this season that having one or two superstar genius players and a malfunctioning whole doesn’t do you any good. Replacing Kane like for like is obviously impossible. We need to buy four or five young, hungry players with pace and become a fast, high pressing nightmare to play against again.

But what better way to get everyone to love you? They’ve got a massive support base in england. And they’ve got a ton of money with desperate to be loved owners. A desperate to be loved by his country top player with a desperate to be loved owner who also owns said players idol’s nfl team. Makes sense he’d want United
Hm, think everyone is too partisan for that to make any difference, city fans will hate him, arsenal fans will still hate him, Liverpool etc

When he goes, you don’t bring him back. He’s made a choice of chasing trophies over those legends records, that has to be a choice he lives with, not one where he gets to have the best of both worlds. I have no particular hopes that he gets his PL title or his CL title - he could have had both with us, we didn’t fail him, we were brilliant. He talks about not wanting to regret anything, well, that record I think might be one thing he’d truly regret as until him everyone pretty much thought it an unbreakable total from Greavsie, and it was there in his hands, two years from now he’d have it, still not be thirty and could move anywhere in the world cemented forever as the king of white hart lane. But doing a Sherringham or now a Bale, it’s never the same, and I’d be a bit gutted to be honest if our record became an end of career ‘bonus’

If he was within 30 goals of greaves reckon he would have stayed another 12 months but he needs 41 and won't get that in 1 season

Tough choice for Harry: Joining City with Foden, De Bruyne, Mahrez, Silva and Sterling teeing him up or stay waiting for Son, Moura, Bergwijn or Lamela to pick him out with a hopeful slash across goal.

Yes but i personally think its high time we realize we do it to ourselves. Cant say you’re a big club when you refuse to act like it & always be more than willing to let yourselves get fucked over repeatedly. Kane is just another in a looooooong line under Daniel. I dont care about that anymore. There is poison in the club and it needs to get out for us to have any hope whatsoever. That poison is the chairman & the majority share holder.

In reply to you and @jurgen .. Oh trust me, I have a lot of frustration towards the ownership of this club to not have taken advantage of the position we were in a few years ago whilst we were just a couple of top players away from taking that final step. Instead the club didn't strike while the iron was hot and now we have to start from scratch. Pisses me off to even think about it.

If we sell him to United. I just give up. Think time to send ST back after 20 years.
He wants to leave I'd take £120m & Greenwood. Kane will be back in the Europa league by Jan with Ole in charge. Kane can become the example used to suggest it's not always best to leave Spurs

Add Eriksen, even Trippier in a way. There is a consistent pattern here, and it didn't start with Levy taking his eye off the ball with the stadium. It's been there from the start.

He sells Kane to Utd or Chelsea he may as well just hand the keys to new owners. Would be the final nail. Utd for one - sideways step for Kane anyway. Yes bigger club, but we’ve offered as many chances to Kane or winning pots than they have in the last 5-6 years. No guarantee he’d go there and win anything bar an FA cup or Europa league.

The blame lies firmly with Levy. We were second, so nearly champions but he didn’t build on that.
He let good players move on without adequate replacement. To be keep the team fresh was the way to go, he let it get stale and mouldy.
A chance to win a trophy and he sacks the manager 6 days before. Now I wanted to see the back of Mourinho but he was a winner and should have had the chance. Not sure even winning that would keep Harry but he would have left with a medal. (Not saying we would have won)
Harry leaving won’t be the end of Tottenham but our dreams are shattered and we must look forward to a painful rebuild and mid table nothingness for a few years.
Why will any really decent manger come here looking at what’s gone on?
Good luck Harry we will miss you but another hero will come along. ??‍♀️

In what universe was Mourinho ever going to win the Cup final? We had been utter gash for months and they beat us in first gear. A lot of the current situation lies squarely on his shoulders for serving up the most fucking abysmal football I can remember, fracturing the squad and destroying the players confidence. I knew he'd leave us in a mess, but fuck me, this is spectacular.

We cant match his desire to win trophies with these owners. Simple. But even if we could, i really think this day would have come anyway. Spurs are really hated in England and that seeped through to him with the national team. He’s always disrespected by fans. He cares far more about the national team & his stature there than anything on the club level. He’s just one of those players. Fair enough but honestly, it always bothered me how much this became a detriment to the club over the years and really held me back from adoring him like I should have. It’s never sit right with me and something in the back of my mind has been telling me this day would have come eventually with or without trophies. And now that he’s done this, i’d be perfectly happy not seeing him in a Spurs shirt again. Hope he’s dropped today like should have been mid week & should have been for the Champions League final he rushed back for solely to get himself into shape for England. This is just how I feel and I am glad I can be open now about that. Thanks for everything. Sorry we didnt win anything with you but bye.

Let's sell Kane, if he wants to leave it's no idea to keep him. It will just be the new Erikson! Levy forced him to stay and then got almost nothing for him compared if we sold him earlier.

For the money we get from Kane, go all in for Haaland!
But our focus should also be on 2 new CB and 1 RB to start with
No chance Haaland is coming here lol

It should be noted that this is a clear knock-on effect of sacking the manager six days before a cup final.

Utterly naive and outright negligent from Levy.

I wonder if those who were leaping for joy then are as thrilled now.
