Stolen from elsewhere, to the tune of Yankee Doodle.

Daniel Levy went to Spain
In his Lamborghini....

We need some more lines though! :p
I don’t normally do songs (with good reason), but this one kinda worked for those starting lines @Rob

Daniel Levy went to Spain
In his Lamborghini
He bought Bale and Reguilon
And thank fuck not Troy Deeney.

Why’s everyone against the signing of Troy? Could be a great backup for Kane.

knows the league
Hard working
Scored a shit load for a bad Watford team
Hates them tossers down the road, so would be good for derbies.
What am I missing?

Don't forget, we got William so close that we paid for his flight in to London and and a taxi to Stanford bridge so that he can sign for Chelsea.

Not done until it's done. A reminder from my son ?

I am so mixed on this. His signing is what the fans want/need and a front 3 of him, kane and son sounds fucking amazing. The influence he could have on the team and a winning mentality will also be really advantageous.

The things I worry about are his age, injuries and whether he still has it (or even some of it) We are going to spend a significant amount of money bringing him in and he has been largely anonymous (not all his fault) for 2-3 seasons. His age means his speed which was one of his best attributes arguably will be in decline.

One of the best players I have ever seen at the club and I fully expect people to read this and think "what a prick" but i am just very wary of thinking he will sort out our team. We still need a midfield that can support or provide the attack with the ball. Again the benefit with him is that he is intelligent on the field so I can see Kane benefitting from the service he could get.

Oddly I am more excited about getting a left back as I think that is something we do need to fix but fuck me if I can't get excited about the return of one of the finest players in the world, I probably need to start playing chess or something.
