Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I'm terrified to see how Levy/Hitchen end up pissing the money up a wall

We'll end up spending 60 mil on Benteke and the remaining 90 on a handful of magic beans from some shady character down the pub
Too optimistic. I think they'd upgrade Sissoko and Aurier's wages with big renewal contracts, sell Tanganga because reasons.... and make enquiries to bring back Soldado for the same money again.... then trouser the leftover cash
 
So is it true or is it bollocks?
Might be either.

I doubt it’s quite as “dramatic” as the betting market wants it to be. A flood of bets on Chelsea / United of city take away the odds from his staying, which is likely where money was being placed.

Eriksen went on TV and said he was off, he went when it suited Levy. This will be the same if it’s true.

The timing of this does not ring right though 48 hours before a home game with fans, with his mate as a manager and less than a week before the season ends is not likely to be when he is bowling into Levy to say see ya.

Calm down I’d say. Also, there is the question of which manager is next. That might determine a lot about if he stays or goes.

Fair points. Makes for a good news story, Lots of clicks! Like you say. Make a lot of money out of it... plus players have said this type of thing before, then stayed. Also, if it is true, who didn't suspect that this might happen?
 
He's got three years left on his contract so we don't have to sell regardless of what the wankers at Sly Sports are saying. and Kane isn't the sort that will refuse to train or play, he is a professional and if the club tells him he is staying he will do the job, I have no doubt of that.

My concern would be the stadium debt and ENIC being in a hole due to Covid and having no choice but to sell, we will then buy a couple of cheap options and the rest of the money will go to the debt.

At which point you can kiss goodbye to top 4 and any hope of achieving anything for the foreseeable.
ENIC are in no hole at all, don’t believe that. Their parent company is loaded and their property assets have only gone one way this past 12 months and that is up. The reality is that they choose not to invest into the football side, using only money we generate from sales to buy players.
 
If Kane goes then we will be in another post-Bale situation only there will be no messiah from the academy to save us this time.
I don't know whether this could be counted as a 'silver lining', but whoever the new manager is wouldn't have the rug pulled from under him a year in like with AVB and the Bale sale. The new guy would actually be getting a load of young potential and trying to morph them into a cohesive squad from day one.
 
Have to say levy will be rubbing his hands at the negotiating table. Barca, real madrid, chelsea, man city and united all there. 150m first bid. Next. 175m..next...pay for thr stadium. Ok deal. 😊

Oh God. We're so lucky to have him, aren't we

Grealish is not going to want to join a Kane-less Tottenham in the Europa Conference League. He will have much more interesting offers to choose from.

The only players we ever spend big money on are ones that nobody else is interested in. No other club was in for Ndombele, Lo Celso, Sessegnon, Sanchez, Sissoko etc. Levy will 100% fuck it up like he always does when big money is involved. If Kane goes then we will be in another post-Bale situation only there will be no messiah from the academy to save us this time.
United want both !
