Both of you have Potter in your display pics, so I will assume you are Brighton experts.
Is Ben White worth his £40m price tag? Is he better than Dunk?

He started real slow in a new system and has since been farely strong. Numbers suggest a bright future and from the eye test recently, he has cut down on his errors. Pretty decent 1v1 and good pace. Not the strongest in the air though from my POV. Need to look more at his numbers to be sure of that.

I don't watch much international ball so many probably think there is better value, but I wouldn't be pissed if we got him.

Basically foyth technically speaking, but has shown more maturity.

People shouldnt hate on Dunk IMO. Solid PL centerback, but certainly a little too old to invest in.
 
If you think anyone buys Kane this summer you're dreaming. He won't sell to City or United, Liverpool wouldn't pay for him and Chelsea would never happen.

Only teams are abroad and only a few teams at that. The biggest chance I see of Kane leaving would be PSG as they're the only team I can see spending £150 mil on him. I still think it's highly doubtful.

No club is paying 150mil for Harry Kane at 28 years old. This isn't the first time he's been playing well ffs, if another club wanted him they would've put the pressure on long ago IMO.

He will stay at spurs another season and if we get champions league the following season he will stay with us further. He's close to breaking the Tottenham goal record, inching close to Premier league record aswell and he will break neither if he goes abroad.

I just really cannot see it.

No way he stays if all we achieve next season is Champions League. Even IF he stays this Summer next season we would need a title charge and at least one trophy to convince him to stay.
 


N'Dicka and Kamada would both be good gets.

Kamada is a 24 year old attacking midfielder. This season he has contributed 5 goals and 15 assists to Frankfurt's campaign and is part of their "Fab 5" attacking line.

He has a contract until 2023 but Frankfurt are a shambles with almost every person with power in the club leaving this summer so we could probably get him easily enough. Kamada can also play second striker.

Brighton have a fantastic defensive record, but I do get worried about making assumptions about how good the defenders are when a team are playing 5 at the back after I saw Conte make Luiz look great with that formation.
What you say is reassuring, so perhaps he should be a serious option to consider.

Not sure how much of Inter you've seen, but is there any reason we shouldn't go after Bastoni?

His contract expires in 2023, and he hasn't yet signed an extension due to an issue over wages (but apparently close to a compromise agreement). Just turned 22, and starts for both Inter and Italy.
Given Inter's financial position, they need sales, could be a solution to our CB problem?

Tbh this narrative gets me a little annoyed. Kane has been in cup finals, we have pushed for the title before, and we haven't won. You know what else? Kane hasn't scored in a cup final.

I fucking love Kane to bits but the truth is he has never got us over the line and I think those at the very top clubs would have noted this and its why he's still at spurs. Barca and Madrid seem to have never come for him, Bayern the same. Would Kane leave spurs to play in the French league with PSG? I don't even think they can afford him aswell as Neymar and Mbappe on their books.

The only clubs that would seemingly break the bank for him are the prem teams United, Chelsea and City and I just cannot see Levy letting him go to one of our rivals firstly for anything less than 150mil and secondly because he would immediately be hounded out the club, no going back from that.

I just think Kane is so Mr Tottenham its going to take a club really committed to him to pay the money we expect and make Kane their star man. Haaland is available and any top club goes for him above Kane IMO because his age and he is clearly proven at the top level so will be doing this for another 10 to 15 years.

Yeah not watched him this season but liked the look of Kamada the season before.
What you reckon Glasner or Rangnick? Or both?

Both would be good. Both have experience working as sporting directors/DOFs as well as being managers. Rangnick is this mythological figure of German football. But Glasner definitely has the more recent managing experience since he is working right now.

I would probably go with Glasner. There's a tactics write up on him in the manager thread that on paper would suit a lot of our squad very well.

Kamada is very inconsistent, unfortunately.

Glasner is in dispute with the Wolfsburg board, however the deadline for the buy out-clause expired a few days ago. Does not mean anything, however, if the contract is terminated. Would be a good choice imo.
