Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Tbh I bet they'd rather sit on the bench for a few months at city if the other option is us

But who knows , fingers crossed I guess
They'd stay then, surely? Rather than want to leave? They are clearly unhappy at their game time - and know a "step down" would probably be their best bet right now.
Imagine their rage and fury, playing for us, knowing they improved us and that wanker leaving bought us new strikers? That would excite me in their position.

We don't have any indication if any of the city players mentioned would even consider us I really hope this unsavoury mess is put to bed soon with the season upon us . I am still hoping that behind the scenes they have a good idea how things will end .
 
Laporte would be perfect. Experienced and pl experienced which is what Spurs are reportedly looking for. Laporte and Romero sounds a lot better than what we had last season. Question is, why would Laporte come here.

No, no he wouldn't. If he leaves City I should imagine better clubs will be in for him, especially from Spain.

If he leaves City it's because he believes he's good enough to be starting there. We're not on that level.
 
I hope he is as good as everyone seems to think

But it's still not really a comparable situation

Atalanta to Spurs is very different from being kicked out of man city to spurs as make weights in another deal

Maybe it could happen ,who knows with football anymore but I really can't see it
Stop repeating "these are not the droids we we are looking for" Thats Daniel Levy talking

we are the 10th wealthiest clubs in Europe by all accounts we currently have the best stadium in world soccer and training facilities. We were champions league finalists less than two years ago. We simply underinvested short term and made a duff managerial appointment. We are looking at a stadium that will net us one million pounds a game We have said venue lined up for NFL and Boxing and music concerts. We are based in one of the worlds great capitals. Laporte wants game time. He is an eminently aquirable target if him or Silva are settled in England. Pay the wages players come that's how it works. Dear God Levy has mind whiped the fan base.
 
We won't be getting any players from the Sheik Mansour Team. Just isn't happening.

Besides, would we really want anyone willing to play for that disgusting mockery of a club?

I agree that Levy has mind whipped the fanbase

Doesn't change the fact that neither of those two will be excited at the idea of leaving city for us in my opinion

That's all on Daniel Levy btw
 
This is a fucking mess.

The chances Kane just sits out for some substantial period of time grow by the day.

Seems to me that maybe Kane's most likely hope is Laport & Silva wanting to come here as it's quite clear City have little drive to bid anymore than 100m cash.

In the meantime Harry won't let his fitness slip as he'll want to hit ground running for City...... If the window closes and he's still here he'll be forced to get on with it (for his sake as much as ours).

The problem isn’t fans thinking we’re poor, it’s players and agents thinking we’re poor.

No one believes Levy is ever going to resource this operation in a way that makes it meaningfully competitive for major honors. That perception begets reality. Changing it would take a lot of time and money, it’s not happening by 31 August.
 
Why on earth would Silva or Laporte agree to join us ?

People need to be realistic

That's one of the things that winds me up so much about this site sometimes. People genuinely think top quality players are going to join us, a club in transition that can't offer Champions League football and is in need of a major clearout. It's madness. People have been mentioning Martinez here a lot of late, when realistically, Danny Ings is now our level.
