This might be what finally does it. If this (letting our greatest modern day player go because we couldn’t match him ambition), doesn’t wake people up to how badly this club is run, nothing ever will.

ENIC out.

They sold our best ever player for money that wouldn't even buy you caicedo or Rice, 2 players that our "competitors" bought without the need to sell players.
Anyone left with any confidence in him and Enic are deluded.
This transfer confirms everything about our owners.

We’ve been in decline for six years. The stadium has been open for over four years. It has had absolutely no impact on our ability to compete. Harry Kane - one of the best players in the world - gave us all of his 20s. He left to a non-rival for a big fee. He is a Tottenham legend. Daniel Levy on the other hand has ultimately achieved very little in 20 years, and he is well past his usefulness to the club.

Not sure there is any defence, and way too cheap for what he brings irrespective of age or contract length , minimum of £130m not €100m
Agree but they will fight his case valiantly like they always do.
If Richarlison is injured poor Ange has been screwed before even the 1st game. Wonder how long it takes Levy to spend the money from the transfer. My guess would be 2-3 years!

It's truly extraordinary if we don't have something big lined up. When we sold Bale Levy at least understood that he had to change the narrative into a positive one by splurging on players. But it seems this time he's willing to let us drift into a season with a feeling of total negativity and hopelessness hanging over the club, the new manager already cursed by the failings of the board's total lack of ambition.

I guess to be fair to Levy, this Kane situation has come out of nowhere and he has had no time to prepare for it.

Don't fall for the narrative Levy wants mate. No reason why we couldn't of been pro active before Kane left, we have known he will be going for the last year.

Kane wanted to go, i'm sure Levy didn't want to let him but it was Kane's decision. He wanted to go to Germany and I guess win the league instead of fighting for any accolades he could achieve in England, his country. Not sure what Lrvy has done wrong?

Left it until 2 days before we kick off our season?

It’s not the isolated sale of Kane. It’s the lack of ambition and complete mismanagement of squad development over the past 10 years that lead to the inevitable.

honestly building a really solid squad ATM, one CB away from being legit contenders. Kane leaving screws that but hey, he wanted to go play in Germany

Indeed. Realistically I think we had to sell Kane if he wasnt willing to sign a new contract - but doing so on the eve of the season? It's mad. I was actually looking forward to a little bit of optimism at the ground (for a few games at least!) but now I imagine the atmosphere is going to be toxic from the off

You are deluding yourself. ENIC out isn't even a majority view and once the team starts playing well under Ange it will fade away again.

The atmosphere should be electric for the team and Ange. Give them all the support. There’s life after Kane.

I think it would be good to acknowledge that Kane also wanted to leave, not only this season but 2 seasons ago.

Him being painted as some kind of martyr in all this is laughable.
He should have left ages ago. It’s been a circus since Poch was fired and the clubs player recruitment has been terrible since Paul Mitchell quit.

I don’t think anyone should be saying anything negative about Harry Kane. He’s done his best since he’s been here.

I don’t think he’s done anything wrong in the way he’s handled the sale this summer. What he’s done wrong is preside over our decline over the past six years.
