Harry Kane

Winning the deal is far more important than winning football matches.

Which matches are we losing as a result of this?

I just want this saga to end. Feels like it’s been ongoing since the City stuff two years ago.

Good one.

You got me there.

Levys going to squeeze Bayern for every penny and he’ll probably get us a good deal.

Whilst he’s worrying about that though, our main targets will either commit to their clubs or go elsewhere and our season will once again begin under a cloud of uncertainty, with the same defence we suffered through last season.

As always, the finances of this will come first, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it takes all summer.

Completely spot on unfortunately, its always money and business first and the sporting effect of the tradeoff of saving or gaining an extra few £mil vs the extra time that takes and the impact that has on squad preparation and finalising required targets is rarely a good tradeoff so yet again a new manager and his start to the season will be sabotaged.

Shame the meeting has been moved to early next week, every day counts here.

I know it’s talksport but they are saying meeting on Monday now

Probably just trying to give us a few more days to tie up 3 new signings before clubs know we’re rich

Or just to spin the story out longer, which I suspect was the reason for saying this supposed meeting was happening.

I actually think it'll feel good once he's gone in a way, like a cloud has been lifted, no more uncertainty, a whole new group of players and new manager all pulling in the same direction and no overreliance on one player.

As long as this doesn't hold up our other deals I'm OK with the wait. We don't have a game until the next weekend anyway. We need some good news first so really hope at the very least a centre back in the coming days which shouldn't depend on selling Kane. If we go into the Shakhtar game with a new centre back alongside Romero and Richarlison up top and Kane sold I can live with that. Then with the Kane money we get a new striker and ideally also a 2nd quality centre back. Those can wait until later in the window as our first team should be good at that point anyway. We just need better competition for centre back and centre forward by the time the window closes. Priorityhas to be getting a centre back pairing working together ahead of the 1st game.

I really, really don't think that Levy can be pre-criticised for wanting or needing to "win" this deal. We absolutely have to pull their pants down on it, or it doesn't happen. We and he cannot afford to be seen selling the club's single biggest asset of all time for anything less than is a good deal for the club, and I think any moaning about this in advance must actually understand that.

kane will be sold he wants out

 

[Albertbarich]

I honestly think this blokes a chancer.

He got a bit of takeover info from the state takeovers and now he's a transfer expert giving out stories like Romano.

Not sure he has even got anything right

 

[KingNick]

O keefe saying meeting rescheduled for early next week

He seemed to say this an hour after Jim White reported it and it’s now looking like it’s not even true given that the Germans reportedly got a different flight and are now in London.

If he is signing players in the meantime then fair enough but everything points to it being on hold in the meantime.

This directly contradicts the itk we had from prof on Coys the other day. Along with other reports that we’ve had as well.

Careful, there's a cult behind him

I’ve seen a few posts suggesting that the new system doesn’t work for Kane, and that he might not adapt to it.

I’ve seen even more posts asserting that Kane is our ‘best’ player.

If the first statement is true, and admittedly, we don’t know if it is yet, how can the latter be also?

Go through any of the threads in the transfer rumours section, and you’ll find plenty of arguments for not signing this player or that player because ‘they don’t fit the system’. Does this same logic not also apply to whether or not we keep a player?

“(Player x) can’t play as a (position y), he’s a (position z) ffs. We should cash-in while we can and get in someone who fits.”

Ben Jacobs is worse than Lyall Thomas.

 

[Thenewcat]

Before his final injury hit season, he’d missed only 25 games in his Tottenham career. And only 16 in his time at Fulham.

In the last 6 years, HK has missed 56 games.

What the actual hell are you talking about? You realise that those numbers are completely made up don’t you? Dembele played 171 (plus 2 for Fulham) league games out of a possible 228 in the 6 years before his final Kane had played 198 in the last 6 years, and has missed 3 games through injury since the Covid break. Other than that, good point

 

[Andertons_Right_Boot]

I most definitely do not HK to leave but as most have said, this HAS to be resolved within the next few days, one way or another.

We have two weeks until the season starts, we cannot have this hanging over us until deadline day. We have to go into that opening game with everyone pulling in the same direction, from the off.

Hopefully Bayern are serious then and it doesn't drag out. They will understand the magnitude of what they are asking us to do, so I just hope that somewhere in amongst their arrogance is an actual will to get the deal done if they want it so badly.
