Lol, WTF?
Already posted in the manager thread. It’s amazing, I was in tears watching it earlier.
Lol, WTF?
Player swaps usually only work if the actual players want to come to us which I very much doubt they do.Player swaps always seem a recipe for disaster to me, not that they happen very often.
"Hey we think this new player is so much better than you we are paying for him and using you as a makeweight"
"sort of hello makeweight, come on then i suppose... "
It just doesn't seem the best way to bring a new player in. Maybe the odd player thinks to themselves i will show all of you, but to be honest I'd refuse if i was a player just on pride ffs.
Yep. If a City player comes to us, we would need the following aspects:Player swaps usually only work if the actual players want to come to us which I very much doubt they do.
I think we need him gone this summer, it just seems the right time to cash in and reshape the team. We will of course find him irreplaceable but it was the same when the likes of Carrick, Modric, Berbatov and Bale went, the show will go on.
£150m in this market could get us the 3 or maybe 4 players we need to be competitive, especially if one is a cut price Danny Ings.
would love a deal that involved Phil Foden - but I know that’s a complete dream.
hopefulky Cotys bid spurs United I to life and we get a bidding war
Lol keep hearing this and it's rubbish. If Brighton had Harry Kane (or any top striker for that matter) teams would set up differently against them. People say if Potter had a top striker Brighton would be challenging. Thing is Brighton don't have a top striker so are Brighton playing to their strengths creating chances for nobody?No way
with their XG and a striker like Kane they would be challenging for the league
at least City are already better than us
Still holding very strong Levy still telling anyone who asks he is not going anywhere this season.I agree. We have reached a point where we need to rebuild and as much as I love the guy he wont be part of that - he wont be staying for that new rebuild and project. It is even more pertinent given the fact we need to invest in the entire squad and we have very limited funds to do so it seems. Id rather have 10/11 very very good players who fit the system than one world class and four or five very good proven players.
It does feel like it needs to be the end and what we need to do now is set the deadline for Man City to pay up or shut up. The issue is how can we make decisions when we dont even have a manager. It is a mess.
Is that before or after he tears up the contract they’ve just agreed in front of them? ?Still holding very strong Levy still telling anyone who asks he is not going anywhere this season.
I think it's legit tbh. Unless he outright puts in a transfer request I can't see Levy selling him. Even then I don't think anyone will pay the asking price, and you might as well completely ignore any cash plus players deals.Is that before or after he tears up the contract they’ve just agreed in front of them? ?
Oh I don’t doubt it’s legit, Levy has form for it unless either the behaviour of the players or the size of the bid means that keeping the player is no longer the best decision.I think it's legit tbh. Unless he outright puts in a transfer request I can't see Levy selling him. Even then I don't think anyone will pay the asking price, and you might as well completely ignore any cash plus players deals.
Normally I'd be completely against it as I know player's of Kane's ability and determination are so rare, especially to club's like ourselves.Would take the 150m straight cash this summer if offered. We can then work on rebuilding our team in core areas. The longer we leave it the more his value will start to decline as he ages. Love Harry but love Tottenham more.
Let’s hope our DoF knows he’s doing when it comes to transfers. for all the duds we bought with the bale money don’t forget we got eriksen!Normally I'd be completely against it as I know player's of Kane's ability and determination are so rare, especially to club's like ourselves.
But with financial issues hitting Europe it is very possible that players will be available on cheaper deals. Guys like Sabitzer are being touted at around £15m.
But if we sold Kane it wouldn't be to buy 2 £70m players. It would be another sell Bale, buy numerous players kind of a transfer window. Due to our full squad we'd still need to find buyers for at least 4 of our deadwood players to make this worth our while.
But as I don't trust us to make the right purchases I still err on the side of keeping Kane if possible.
Hasn’t put a foot wrong so far ?Let’s hope our DoF knows he’s doing when it comes to transfers. for all the duds we bought with the bale money don’t forget we got eriksen!
Please don't take me in anyway for some sort of board game geek but whenever I hear mention of Charlie Kane I can't help but picture this chap from the Eldritch Horror game...Had a chance encounter with Charlie Kane yesterday. We were coming out of the Uefa ticketing centre before the game yesterday and I turned round and there he was. Seemed genuinely chuffed that someone recognised and referred to him by his name, rather than him being the brother of H.
I said to him I wouldn't give him too much shit (about briefing the press), asked him if Harry will stay ("We'll see" was the response) and said we all want him to stay, and then left him alone to make his way to the stadium.
Nothing earth shattering, he was hardly going to give anything definitive away to a half pissed bloke wearing an England top, but thought I'd share anyway.
To be fair, your post is a lot more informative than my original one was. I'd never heard of the Eldritch Horror game until you mentioned itPlease don't take me in anyway for some sort of board game geek but whenever I hear mention of Charlie Kane I can't help but picture this chap from the Eldritch Horror game...
