If Kane goes there's 0 chance for much better signing because we need homegrown
I think we have enough homegrown. Its just a question of whether they are of the right quality because we're limited for non homegrown. Our main issue is actually clearing out non homegrown numbers as we're over the limit. So you then want the remaining number of players who have to be homegrown to be of high quality. So far we got Winks out and Maddison in so have improved on one. Get Tosin for say Tanganga and that's 2. It just sets us up better going forward. Maybe Phillips gives us one down the line when he's older. Losing Kane means we lose our best homegrown but getting Gallagher at least adds a good one rather than having to keep one of the others (Sess, Spence, Rodon, Davies). Quantity of homegrown seems OK but its the quality that's an issue really.
If WH really want him I could certainly see them offering Chelsea a more favourable deal in order to make sure they get him. They will probably try and get it done swiftly as well, guess it will come down to how well Ange sells the project but even so WH will be able to offer him a more key role you’d think. Considering we are struggling to sort out our defence I’d be surprised if any CM was high up our priority list atm regardless who leaves.
It sound like he's a HG Hojbjerg replacement, a 1 in, 1 out, if it does happen.
Wonder who he'd opt for? Probably more guaranteed game-time at West Ham and they might offer him higher wages to lure him.
no shot, we were hoping for that $25 mil cost lol
Also depends where he wants to go. If West Ham bid £80m and he doesn't want to go, and let's face it who would, the Chelsea can posture as much as they want. If we bid £35m and he wants us the Chelsea will have to lump it if they want rid
