Harry Kane | "I will be staying at Tottenham this summer and will be 100% focused on helping the team achieve success."

As much as I'd love to see the utter meltdown that would happen from this. One of the worst hypotheticals I've seen.
I don’t think it would but I’d go for Pau Torres if I were them maybe Damsgaard and Tammy for a striker..
Can’t believe Grealish said that
He´s a straight talker, the low sock, calf showing bastard.
One game missed. That’ll show Levy. This is a pointless exercise. He’ll have to issue a growling apology after he comes back.
Who wouldn't, really?
Well it does. In all of Pogba’s appearances only a couple were on the left. We didn’t exactly lose every time he plays in the middle.
Unless you sign up to the nonsense here that Pogba had an awful last season which is utter rubbish.
Glad it’s not just me. The disrespect of players (human beings!!) who are no longer flavour of the month is appalling. It’s almost like some of them are 2nd class citizens, fit only to be discarded.
Woe betide anybody who dares get injured or have an off form period!
Why do they need PL experience? By your logic, why would any of those sides sell to Spurs 2-3 weeks before the season starts?
If they need to think like Leicester, there's so many better options across Europe for less.
that dominance is not unknown in the premier league though is it. we won 7 out of the first 9, was the premier league a bit of a joke then?
Grealish isn't much of an improvement to what they already have. And Kane has yet to to finalize. So let's wait until we put our heads in the sand. Plus I almost hope Kane happens so we have a free ride for Haaland next summer.
You probably thought the same after Chelsea signed Ballack and Sheva with Mourinho after winning back-to-back Prem titles.
Nothing is a guarantee.
We didn't do it with Abu Dhabi billions. We just had the greatest manager of all time. The fact we've been rubbish since he left despite still being incredibly rich should tell you that.
What's happened at City isn't remotely the same. It's football manager in real life.
Haha exactly. I saw this strange thing on TV yesterday too about these tropical tigers who eat rabbits but consider themselves vegetarian
The gap between that Utd team and Chelsea team wasn't that big for me. And we had Rooney, Ronaldo, Rio, Scholes etc and of course Fergie.
The gap between us and City is huge. Kane and Grealish don't make it smaller.
But it is what it is. The PL have welcomed in this foreign money. Now we have to deal with the consequences
It would be a very Spursy thing to do. They'd have learned nothing from the time the squandered all the Bale money on Soldado, etc.
different path, same result, it doesnt matter how the feat is achieved just the effect it has on the league.
you could also argue, as my daughters have done, that in those 9 years that we won it 7 times, the premier league was weaker as it supplied only a single champions league finalist (us in 99) compared to now where the premier league has provided 5 champions league finalists out of the last 8. For the 7 in 9 scenanrio to play out for city there is still another 10 finalists to be decided so that ratio could be worse. Add in the uefa cup /europa leage / cup winners cup its 5 out of 32 for our 9 years and so far for ciity's 9 years its 3 out of 8 with 10 places still to be decided.
Sneaky feeling we might swoop in.
So Nuno and Harry haven't even talked to each other yet!!
I don’t know how sitting in Miami helps Kane’s cause here. He’s burning bridges with Levy and the fans. Levy can just sit tight and adamantly ask for more money. If a deal is not struck, Kane will have to come back with the tail between his legs.
Better way of playing this would have been him coming back, keep the fans on his side and also try and smooth things out with Levy and discuss for a move away.

He's signing for Inter Miami?
I still have this feeling Levy promised Nuno that Harry will be staying when he took the job, without any conversations with the player and now everything is ready to explode.
I'm just gonna sit back and laugh (until City sign him at least).
Why the feck there are two threads about fecking Kane? Shut one down @golden_blunder .
Did Glaston delete his account? I can't tag him
Where’s the other?
Looks like he has and good for him.Did Glaston delete his account? I can't tag him
I blame people like you, for hounding this rare treasure trove of entertainment out of the forum by constantly and lazily tagging him whenever something bad or embarrassing happens at Spurs (which is all the time). It's obvious even someone as deludedly self-confident as him would suffer from the bullying pressure eventually.
We should have waited until he comes posting, after a couple of victories or so, and let him entertain us on his own accord.
I’m genuinely amazed that Kane has taken this course of action in order to force through a move. A talismanic, youth product, club captain behaving in such a way is beyond the pale, really. I thought he was much better than that.
I think he has had a lot of time to reflect on this. He knows this is the time he has to move, he is at an age where he needs to win trophies or challenge for them, Spurs are not going to do that.
He has come from a summer with top class players around him, he wants that on a regular basis now.
He told the club months ago he wants to leave, there has been no indication from the club to entertain a bid or anything therefore; he has felt the need to do something drastic.
However; saying that, I do not feel sorry for him or have any sympathy, he signed a 6 year contract with no break clause. That is on him.
Theres no way he would have done this if there was no club interested in him.

Really?
I remember feeling a little bit helpless in front of that Chelsea side. I remember getting giddy at the tail end of 2005-06 and thinking we could do it, even with Giggs and O'Shea in midfield, only to get spanked 3-1 at Chelsea with Rooney breaking his foot. That first Mourinho team was pretty imperious. Them going 2-0 up was game over.
When we lost Ruud in the summer of 2006 and all the crap happened with Ronaldo and the wink, I was far from optimistic. Scholesy had been out for ages with his eye. I'd be lying if I said I knew his return would be so massive for the side. Plus we had replaced Roy Keane, who'd been everything for us, with this lad from Spurs called Carrick. Didn't know too much about him, to be honest, but again I would be lying if I said I thought Carrick was going to get us to Chelsea's level.
What a season 2006-07 was, eh?
I'm not sure, relatively speaking, that the gap between today's City and 2006's Chelsea is that different.
As for Kane I'm not sure Spurs will actually let him go, not if City refuse to meet his asking price. Like Dortmund with Sancho, financially, yes, they'd be better off selling with three years left on the deal but they'll still get good money with two years left. Kane's value won't start to really nosedive until next summer. If Levy forces Kane to stay one more season he still won't lose that much value. Its not like its £100m this year or a bag of crisps and a pack of cigarettes next summer.
Ultimately this will all come down to how badly City want Kane. Its pretty much exactly the same as us with Sancho. We could've got Sancho last summer but we decided the need wasn't so great that it'd be worth the extra £50m. So we waited a year and went back in at a price that was more to our liking. City can do the same. If they aren't willing to go to £120m this summer then they can go in for £80m next summer, when Kane has two years left on his deal, and get the player.
"Kane goes Awol" thread
You say that but there is almost certainly a side agreement allowing him to leave.
We just don't know exactly what was agreed.
No chance he goes on strike if he doesn't feel he's getting done over by Levy.
Thank god. I apologize sincerely to @charlenefan
Can't have a break clause in England IIRC.
Think about it, what big name star in the prem, for any club has a break clause in their contract? Does Werner? Does Bruno? Does Rashford? Does Grealish? Does Son? Does De Bruyne?
No players have break clauses, I don't think they are even allowed by law. I could be wrong, but I'm sure I read somewhere that the Prem doesn't allow it.
