For the Tottenham Hotspur fans who Ange Postecoglou described as being “in mourning”, it is time to say farewell to, as Pep Guardiola once described it, “the Harry Kane team” and embrace the club’s new Aussie rules.

Annoys me when they talk about “mourning” it’s for serious stuff and if anyone is saying otherwise they need to take a look at themselves/get out more. It’s sad and frustrating but honestly!!! Some ppl sound like they have lost their family member or something. The guy will be fine, he’s going to earn a fortune and he doesn’t know you exist.

We move on.

Nice piece by John Crace in the Guardian. An extract:

“I’m not sure I’ll see Kane’s like again. Players such as him come around all too rarely and I’m getting long in the tooth. Too old to believe in the “it’s a season to rebuild” nonsense fans like to drone on about. Every season at Spurs seems to be a rebuilding season. Hell, if you can’t build a winning team around Kane, who can you build one around? So it’s adieu, Harry. I wish you nothing but the best. You’ve given me far more than I could have ever hoped. And at least I will have a team to support in this year’s Champions League. Come On You Bayern.”

Totally agree. Perhaps this is an unpopular opinion but I’m delighted for him. I can understand why he’d reached his limit with Tottenham. How many times have we done that? The difference is that we’ve got the rest of our lives to fall back in love with our club, Kane doesn’t have that time. A player of his quality needs to win big things. Going to Bayern gives him perhaps a 1:3 chance of winning the CL.
