I think we are a top striker away from challenging. Arsenal were “a million miles away” before last season. We’ve added quality at GK and CM already. Why rush? Answer = we have to. Our competition strengthens at least as fast as we do. You want to wait until Case and Varane are spent? We have to bloody get on with it.
Weird take isn't it. Stick Kane is the team last season and he adds another 20 or so goals. Scored in the right games, that's taking us past Arsenal and pretty close to City.
And the team is already better for this season.
Yes, but Harry Kane isn’t German?
I bet if you gave him the choice, he would take 1 PL title and the goalscoring record over 5 Bundesligas in the next 5 years
Isn't the premier league the farmers league of City?
And it's amazing how you know what Kane really wants to win, better than Kane himself, considering he has agreed terms with Bayern already and given them his word.
People smoking crack not wanting Kane. World class strikers are available every what? 10/15 years? There is only a handful right now - Haaland, Kane, Mbappe, Lewa and Benzema don't count because they are almost done. Then you get to the tier below - Oshimen etc. Then potential below that - Ramos, Hojlund etc. The odds are small that any will reach the levels of Kane, Mbappe, Haaland. On the market for the first time 2 of them are available and we dont want them!? We have waited over a decade for a top striker thats not old as fk. Just get him.
ESPN saying we are holding out interest. Typical media see-saw for clicks.

That source is actually better than 90% of the “sources” posted on here.
That’s rubbish.
We will have majorly underachieved if we are not challenging for the title in the 24/25 season. Especially if we sign someone like Kane.
There it is again.
Like we're Brighton or something
3 different PL teams have won the CL in the last 5 years. So no, it isn’t.
We are not signing both Hojlund and Kane like I said it’s not FM
Benzema won the balon d'or at 34 so not exactly the best point of reference, also there's Lewandowski who probably would have won it at 31 and would go on to be Europe's top scorer for the next 2 so there's certainly outliers, assuming keeping your from into your 30s doesn't become the norm in the foreseeable future.
I agree, it has to be one striker and yes if Kane is available we go for him obviously.
I have to disagree with this. Much like RvP when he joined, Kane would instantly make us challengers. What our time needs is goals and Kane gives us that in spades. Look at how much he scored last season for Spurs, and we are a much better team.
I am a big fan of Rasmus and truly believe he will become someone special, but if we could get Kane now we should absolutely do it. I just dont think we can.
If we had got either Zlatan or Cavani when they were 30, I'd be over the moon. Get it done Woody...
Berbatov was finished by the age of 30 and he also didn't rely on pace.
They aren't.
Ducker changing his tune this morning from last night that we aren't likely to be back in for him
Knowing they have to sell, we have to try to get him.
I feel we would become a title challenger with Kane, in that we can aim for 90 points. Actually winning it also depends on the kind of season others have.
He would just look so good rocking our kit at the stretty end 
World class player makes you a challenger.
I think we have come too far to abandon the Hojlund deal and then go for Kane. United have probably promised Hojlund that we’ll buy him and be prepared for a United move
What's the point of a promise if the selling club quotes unrealistic prices. Hojlund should force a move if he's that keen.
Kane would transform us in title challenger.
They offer the best chance at CL since City doesn't need him and Real is saving up for Mbappe.
We'll give him a 4 year contract and near the end of it he'll still be worth 50 million. Yeah, right
It’s negotiations, very common in the business world. Chelsea and Inter were also quoting prices for Mount and Onana that United didn’t want to pay but eventually all parties came to a compromise
I like the stance here if the reports are true.. we need to stop being taken for a ride
Woody would be chomping at the bit to throw 120m at Spurs this summer, the little bollocks
he'd probably be leaking stories left right and centre about it

There's no question Kane would be a great signing, Fergie would have bought him ages ago for example. However, the sums involved are utterly insane given his age.
Benzema and Lewandowski are 35/36 years old and they still deliver. Kane is on the same level, hence I'd say he's still good for at least 3-4 more years - which is a long time in football business (ofc provided that Kane doesn't suffer a serious injury).
£100M might be a lot for a player who's almost 30 with one year left on his contract, but this is how supply and demands works nowadays.. .

For the right price, sure.
Kane has won feck all to be worth the touted wage. This is Sanchez all over again.

How do you know?
Who cares about resale value? We bought the most promosing striker in France, higher rated than Mbappe at youth level at the point we bought him, for £50M, and if we are lucky we are getting 10% of that for a sale at his "prime".
We could buy Hojlund for 60-80M and he could end up a dud as well - he's still very raw. I like him, but he isn't going to pull up trees ala Haaland. Kane is 100M for an experienced player, who is used to handling the pressure of being the main man, and a player that single handedly guarantees both goals and points - with great consistency- in the league we are competing in. He is as close to a sure fire thing you can get.
Truth is if a player is good enough to be resold for a higher fee than we paid, we won't want to sell him, so resale value isn't something we are generally concerned about. The only time we sell players - with a few notable exceptions- are when they aren't good enough for us.

The good thing here is this transfer will drag on to the last week of the window, let’s see what United financial situation is then ??
Harry’s children are around 3, 4 and 6 years old. The same issue would be the case for a case if a German footballer had young children who grew up in Munich and was facing the prospect of moving to London. You don’t completely rule out moving to another country to fulfill professional goals, but as a parent of young children you do have to ask whether such a move would be in their best interest. If in the end Harry decides not to go to Bayern, the needs of his wife and children will no doubt play a large part in that.
