I suspected it was the wrong move at the time as he was never gonna "totally transform" the way we played (as commonly insisted at the time) and the frequent "he's not that great defensively though" chatter was a further red flag.

CB was a way more practical (and point preserving) purchase at the time.

........I fear we're creating a square peg/round hole scenario for Udogie too.

.......I don't think Maddison is a great fit either.

I'm quietly hoping Ange surprises us here and does something few are expecting.



(People get so hung up about 3at the back... I think we should be sticking with it personally.)

Sometimes these things get way out of proportion too, EG

1. do we have some interest yes
2. will we contact to find out if its do able
3. media gets a whiff paints social media left right and centre with the story
4. fans get way ahead of themselves now believe he will be their player, make formations diagrams, and they have now made this a reality in their minds
5. fans get distraught and blame the club it never happened
RINSE and REPEAT

^^^^
the above applies to im guessing another 10 clubs who tried to enquire , their fans did the same thing etc

Just depends how real it is and did it go any further than an enquiry

First two conversations with the players reps surely go like this:

1. Is the player interested?
2. What kind of price would the club ask.


Find it hard to believe the club wouldn't know the answer to both well before the story got near a journalist, especially for the story to keep running.
 
maybe kane is intrigued by it, im sure he knows there is zero chance he moves to an English Club this summer.
Bayern will have to dig very deep though, so can't really see it
 
Part of me thinks will kane sacrifice premier league record? But bayern is a top club and will have a good chance to win CL next season. Bundesliga trophy is shit though. Looks like a hubcap. Defies logic a bit as well we sign maddison to provide goals, then we well top scorer.

Tough decision for the club, fans wrath if he is sold, or fans wrath if he leaves for free next season.
I certainly don't begrudge him a move away, chance to compete for prizes, or stay at spurs to be top six on a good day.

Depends if the selling club leaks it to drum up a bidding war, or if the players agent does it to help garner further interested in player and also to get a bidding war, higher the price , higher the agents cut will be
