For old timers losing Harry is no worse than when Greavsie left Spurs , he left because Bill didn't want him anymore and wanted Martin Peters instead.

Yeah agree, especially from the German side as they can’t keep their mouths shut for 1 min it seems

No contract will be torn up until a player finds a club. I'm quite certain he didn't put a timescale on it.

That we’d all enjoy football a lot more if we stopped voluntarily consuming content designed to make us angry?
That’s allowing a player to move on a free transfer not tearing up a contract.
and yes, he said “in the next FEW days and weeks”. That was about ten weeks ago.

We will never know how we would have done with Kane though. I think we'll be just fine without him provided we sort the defence. I would be a lot more concerned if we had the same style of football as the last few years. We should do well as a team and we'll just be different without him is all. Also it does kind of help we finished 8th anyway with him. I wonder how often we will see "Kane would've scored that" in the match day threads though.

Was that the case? I didn't realise they said 10 days.
However, If you tear up someone's contract, you would be legally obliged to compensate them for the value of the contract. I doubt there is a compensation clause in it, as that would work both ways.
Ergo, there would be no benefit to tear up someone's contract, unless there was an agreed settlement. No player would settle until they have an option lined up.

I’m defo getting used to the idea of Kane lwaving now! One thing which I see an advantage for the team is that they won’t have to keep listening to the media talking about how Kane is the only one blah blah blah who is doing anything for the team.
Obviously Sonny will miss him but I can see Sonny as a great captain and Richarlison is not a second fiddle player anymore, therefore more confidence when he goes out on the pitch.
As long as I don’t have to watch the type of football we watched last season i will be 50% more happier than I I was when i watched Sheffield Utd away and them AC Milan at home!!!!

Yes, I know all that. Hence why it was obviously never true.

We’ll be saying that for a long, long time I’m afraid. We’ve been so spoiled and treated to his reliability and brilliance. Hurts to lose him and it just dampens the mood knowing that even if we start to ascend with a more balanced squad and evenly distributed quality in the team and a good manager, we will come so close only to fall just short again because we won’t change the way we do business.
I took it as, Herc off on his holsSo… Herc says ‘bye bye’, and is everyone assuming that to mean Harry is Bayern bound? Done and dusted? That’s an impressive call. First one to confirm it.
Knew it was drifting in that direction, but had no idea it was pretty much signed, sealed, delivered.
Cheers, Herc for being willing to share that before anyone else has. At least now we know for sure.
Very bummed. But this too shall pass. And hopefully there will be brighter days ahead.
Good luck, Harry. It’s been a pleasure!

Or, things have changed, which is the most logical answer. Perisic went on tour, perhaps ange wanted to take a look at him.

Why would you tear up a contract until the Transfer window shuts? You're going to have to pay up the value of it, sure you would try and sell first?

I agree that we're likely to finish above 8th and to score more goals (and concede fewer!). However, I would be even more confident of that if Kane stayed. Son, Kulusevski and Richarlison would all be expected to significantly improve upon their goal & assist outputs from last season, whether Kane stays or goes. Maddison, and to a lesser extent Solomon, will contribute goals & assists.
If we kept Kane, other players may collectively score less (not necessarily the case), but probably not 30 goals less.

To be fair to him, someone asked him the other day about this, and he went off on one a bit, basically saying he'd been made to look a mug by passing on certain info and that he was pissed off with the club.
Even with the Kane money, I can’t see us getting two CBs unless we get rid of at least one. Not sure what’s happening to big Dav and his moveHopefully this transfer gets sorted out over the next few days. Focus on bringing in 3 CBs in with the cash.
Although a new CF would be good, I say let's give Richie a go, backed up by son and Scarlett (yes I know he's wet behind the ears) if we need to address the issue in January, then we cross that bridge when we come to it.
Like it or not, this is a transition season, new formation and new tactics/footballing style. No europe will no doubt help with the gelling of the tactics and getting used to Ange's style of football.
I'm looking forward to getting our spurs back and enjoying watching 6 - 4 games again
Team and tactics will be changing this season, maybe we as supporters should also change our fickle attitude towards everything spurs?
