I thought it said that the Kane camp expect him to leave this window.
It's actually very vague:

"Despite playing on the tour, respecting Ange, appreciating our fans, working hard in training, etc, following a candid conversation with DL the expectation within the Kane camp is that he will not be a Spurs player by the time the window closes."

The candid conversation sounds like kane saying he would like to leave.

However, your statement was correct 😊

Richarlisons stats tell us he’s a 1 in 3 merchant so you’ll be lucky to get 15 league goals out of him - more like 10/12
Different team and one that will create a lot more chances for him. It seems pointless to look at his previous record. Son had a similar ratio at his age but started banging in more and got a golden boot soon after. I think Richarlison is capable but no doubt I'd want a young exciting striker signing to keep him on his toes if we sold Kane.

Acceptance.
I have made my peace with Kane going, staying, extending, playing for one last year and leaving.
Am more pleased to have the non Conte football with Ange rather than who is playing for us.
Support Spurs and the players when they are with us, when they move I let them go.
Roll on the coming season and some totally different football to the lase few years. COYS.

Purely in terms of how Ange likes to play, Richarlison is far better suited than Kane is. Don't think I'm looking for a silver lining saying this either. Kane would struggle with the pressing and general athleticism required whereas Richarlison would be the opposite. I'm expecting goals to come from a wider variety of players too.

Richarlison was 1 in 2.87 at Everton and 1 in 2.2 for Brazil.

Muani is 1 in 2.7 in the last 3 seasons in the league and 1 in 9 for France.
Vlahovic is 1 in 2.7 in Serie A since signing for Juve.

So yes on paper the potential two replacements for Kane have slightly better league stats, but neither of them have played in the PL.

Richarlison in an attacking team should back 15+ goals if playing every week.

Time will tell - 3.1 per league game at Everton…

Yeah my bad - can’t see him scoring over 100 league goals this season!!
I personally think it could go either way. Assuming that he becomes first team regular and assuming he stays injury free, then I think under Ange he could become a 20+ goal per season striker for us and also help facilitate goals from elsewhere in the pitch. But there's also a chance he never gets better than 1 in 3, which would be a shame.

Part of me thinks 90% chance he is gone. The reason being is because I can’t imagine Levy or Joe letting him go for free when they can get 100m for him. As we have seen we are a club always looking for that player for best value, or bargain deals. I don’t see any ambition or us pushing the boat out to win a trophy, but always looking to make a profit in anyway possible. This is why Bayern are so confident in getting
Kane because it seems he isn’t going to sign a new deal, and levy and Joe won’t let him walk for free, so there is only one outcome. He goes. Kane himself isn’t kicking up a fuss that much as he’s the one who holds all the cards.

What does Richarlison have for us more importantly?

Yeah but that's assuming Kane scores 30 goals again this season. Prior to last season his season goal tallies were 17, 23, 18, 17 - very decent but not irreplacable. And what got his goals up last season was largely an increased focus on set pieces and headed goals (he broke the PL record for most in a season), which I doubt we'll replicate under Ange.

Not trying to downplay Kane's brilliance because he's obviously world class and his all round play + assists in those other seasons was fantastic but if the system doesn't suit him then there's certainly no guarantee he waltzes to 30 goals again. And if he gets 17-23 that's really not too different from what I'd expect from Richarlison as a starting number 9.
Ok, it just seems all of a sudden Kane's a meh striker that can't fit an attacking system..... Is he world class or is he not... All you fans that are OK with cashing in our world class superstar striker make me puke, Levy has you all brainwashed, thinking what about the next 3 seasons blah blah blah...... False dawn's a plenty... Balance sheet is king for most of you, it's not like ticket prices are going up 🤔 the more dislikes/WTF or any neg reps the better please, just shows Levy can do what the f**k he likes...... Well that's probably enough from me on this.. sorry all I got a little too emotionally invested in the chat😞

I think people are forgetting Richarlison in the 21/22 season played a whopping 120 games with 40 goals. Sure its a 1 in 3 ratio but bloody hell that guy is a machine

Is it more important? Last season was a mess. He's a 9 - in a settled side, I think you'd see a different player.

Whether he would outscore his previous seasons is more a of debate. Personally, I think he could suit Ange's team well

Let’s be honest, if we were signing Richarlison from Italy or somewhere fans would be very excited about him. Just look how much more excited people are by some of the other links who have arguably done a lot less than Richarlison.

Many fans seem to be judging him by last season, by the fact we bought him from Everton and that he has never scored Kane numbers- but how many strikers do score Kane numbers?

Mate, I literally said in my post that I think kane is world class and we'll never replicate his all round game. Every Spurs fan knows Kane is an absolutely incredible player.

I'm just making the point that there's a chance he's not suited to Ange's style and won't be able to replicate 30 goals next season like many are assuming he will. He did it in an attacking Poch system 5 years ago so maybe he can do it again - I'm not saying he definitely won't. I'm just forming an opinion based on what I'm seeing in pre-season and how Kane fits our new manager's style.

Your post is an emotional rant accusing fans who don't directly agree with you as representing every single thing that makes angry about the club with little bearing on what people are actually posting.

Also if you think any fans actually genuinely care about the balance sheet you're barking up the wrong tree. All fans want us to spend big and build an amazing squad, but some of us accept that Levy's a tight bastard and he's not going to suddenly start spending extra just for the hell of it. Hence getting 90m-100 for Kane might actually not be the worst idea in the world if we want to strengthen the squad over the next few seasons once Kane does inevitably leave.
