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

Yes but I put my head above the parapet and said what I believed to be true. Do any of us really know what goes on in the war rooms of football clubs?

Personally I didn't want him at that price.
 


Ed Aarons also reports that City were willing to pay £127m (or ~€150m) for Kane. However, Levy was only interested in an offer of £150m and nothing else.

:lol: :lol: you really couldn't write it, on Bluemoon 60% wanted him, Spurs were dying to sell or we would do a Leeds and Levy was a selling Chairman (probably the biggest crock of shit of the lot.) I tried to explain to one of your fellow supporters the differences in debt, but his response was (debt was debt). I was then banned after pointed out that Abu Dhabi is the capital and the second-most populous city of the United Arab Emirates. He seemed to think there was no connection to the UAE.......

He played 50 games last season for club and Country which is 9 more than Haaland but sure, let's just make up a lazy narrative just because he's 29.

You're such an emotional person :lol: I said I personally don’t want us to go Kane’s direction due to him nearing 30, declining athleticism and recently having injury issues. Your reply “he played more than Haaland but let’s make up a narrative”. What narrative?How does that invalidate any of what I said?
 
He is one of the best strikers in the world and has come out of this looking like an absolute plonker. The wrong decision at every turn.

This is why Raiola makes the big bucks unfortunately.

Poor bastard.

If Harry had half a brain, he'd have demanded a release clause added to a new contract the last time he and Levy agreed to another extension. Levi obvioulsly may have refused at the time but then time would be working for the player and the chairman's position would get weaker with every passing season. Kane could have just played out the remaining years and walk as a free agent while still in his prime or force Levy to sell him with little time left on a running out contract.

After all the shit Levi pulled over the years I'm genuinely shocked players still expect something different from the man. Regardless of whether you think his hard-arse reputation is good or bad for the club, one thing you can say about Levy is that he's consistent.

Nice variation on the spelling of Levy

This was a mini Peter Odemwingie saga. Pretty embarrassing for Kane and spurs.
 
This is the Captain tasked with giving inspirational speeches. He got bummed at the negotiation table.

Stupid for Spurs. He is a declining asset and a player that doesnt want to be there. 130-150 is a good deal in this Covid market. They could spend the cash wisely and end up a better team. For example - 60 Martinez, 40 Saul if Man Utd, Chelsea dont go in for him, Traore 40 mill.

Low fee for Martinez aside, there’s no way either of them pick Spurs, tbh. No CL football + no Harry Kane - not a particularly attractive side for any new signings with pedigree like league winners of those two.

It might have been if they'd ever actually bid that much. As it was, we have a few chances saying they bid less than that or others saying the actual max amount of money ever offered at any point was 100 million, with, if we're being generous, some players offered too who are either shite (Jesus) or are on too high wages and wouldn't want to come (Laporte/Sterling).

I honestly think if they'd offered 150 mil, he'd have gone. An actual amount like that, not a hodge podge of players. You can't bid 100 million for Grealish and then a similar amount for Kane.

He's ended up looking a total tit but was happy with the reception he received on Sunday and am hoping he receives a similar one next home game. Hope he has a good season and gets his move for a decent price next summer.

Im with you, Harry and City come out of this tarnished, I doubt City care. I would rather of got him gone early for £150 clean. Il support him, and hope he has an excellent season but his legacy is gone even if he wins something.

Edit: Before I forget, Spurs put in an official request to move the goal from Eriksen's name to Kane's name. That was double embarassment :D

This, doing a "I want out interview" while the season is still going on, not turning up for training in time... this guy is a grade A prick of a man. And Neville calls him a saint and Souness and co keep defending him while they bombard Pogba for his agent talking rubbish. Hope he never wins anything in his career the selfish idiot.
 
Interesting. Honestly thought this would be a August 31st, 11.59pm move.

No talk of any contract extension so guess he's just gambling he'll move next summer when he has just 2 years left so potentially more in his favour although whether Man. City would still be interested would be very debatable with Haaland more in play then.

Unless you're posting from the future, he isn't.
 
Luckily for Kane, fans are idiotically fickle, and as long as he quickly gets back on the goal trail, they won't even care in a week.
 
I love that Harry Kane now have to spend a year with teammates who have been told in no uncertain term that they are not good enough for Harry Kane

At least his brother can get himself some more lotions and keep those fingers nice and soft
 
Can’t say I’m surprised the amount of money involved in signing him was crazy even for City.

Personally think this is going to be bad news for. Means city will likely join the race for Haaland next summer.
 
Levy has done a favor for football by saving itself from the dirty oil money.
 
So he never did hand in an offical transfer request did he? He's screwed himself. Levys bit*h till his contract runs out. What a plonker.
 
I think more & more players will be running down their contracts . This mess just makes the agents even bigger .
