Problem with that is we will lose Lloris and Kane. Without us showing ambition, our top stars will surely leave. We'll dig ourselves deeper and deeper in a hole.
You merchants of doom bore the pants off me.

And look at the backlash they are getting.
We arent competing with them in any shape or form.

It's trying it on because he hasn't accomplished much yet. To compare him with Kane, a season ago they were equal in terms of being prospects but Kane has had the breakthrough year. For 25m I'd hope to get a reliable goal scorer rather than a player who might make it or might flop. To me, it's a deal that should have add ons so we share some of the risk. If the price went up because he got us into the champions league that would be fair but 25m up front and we take all the risk.
Serious question: why is £25m "trying it on"?
Two years left on his contract, same age as Kane, better England U21 record than Kane, proven in Premier League, third top scoring English striker.
Lallana went for £25m. Stones is about to go for £35m+. We'd want £40m+ for Kane.
So why is it trying it on? Think it's arrogance on our part and is why a lot of people don't like us now, which some people seem surprised by
