Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

All we have left to look forward to is the wording of the club statement.

Imagining it mentions something about his reluctance to sign a new deal with us and we didn't want to lose on a free.

This sale is a 'profit before glory' one. Let's get this thread in the former player section the moment he signs and the inks still wet. Time to move on.
 
I notice that Fab has not pinned the Ornstein news..

For all those saying we should have kept Kane regardless, if he really wanted to be here, would he have already agreed terms with Bayern?

He was happy to join Bayern now (and for us to get a big fee) and happy to join another club on a free.

We’ll never know whether he could have been persuaded to sign a new contract if Ange does well because Levy wasn’t brave enough to take that chance.

We all know that Kane is not happy to be here if we are going to remain 8th. Levy obviously doesn’t think we can do much better so he’s given up and taken the pragmatic option.
 
You'd be useless in a war.

Yes because I wouldn't take part and consequentially I'd live a long and peaceful life. You? You'd bum rush a machine gun and last 4 seconds before being turned into giblets.

Get a fucking grip get behind the side we will rise again and if we don't we'll have a laugh and a few beers. It's not the end.

I just want us to be successful and I don't see that happening by selling our best ever player 72 hours before the season starts. I'm as yet unconvinced by Ange (I think he's a bit tactically naive and I'm still concerned that he's never managed above Sunday league level) and I don't see Richarlison or a 9 year old Argentinian kid as adequate replacements. I'm sure Levy will try and sign some bargain basement, cheapo replacement like Frazier Campbell mk2.

But if you're happy with all that, then good for you.

Me? I want better.

Kane isnt happy to qualify for the CL either. He wants to win things and at spurs we are far far away from winning anything. There was no way we could have convinced him to sign another contract. Should have been sold earlier , and replacements bought in who would have had preseason with us. Instead of making Kane play our friendlies.
 
if he goes i'd put son down the middle, and bring in someone much much better than solomon on the left
Son's pace is dipping the longer he gets past 30, but when confident he's still a clinical finisher. A bit like Ronaldo's positional shifting I'm inclined to agree with you.

Would still like to see Orban come in though if/when Kane leaves (though he seems positionally flexible too).
 
I still cannot believe what levy has done here, utter utter shambles the way this has been dealt with. An extra couple mil to ruin the start to the season and all excitement going into it. Everyone would have accepted this a week or so ago, but on the eve of the season and not even for serious money. Fuck this board

To be fair, you're right I'd be fucking useless in a war too.

Its just the disaster mongers are getting on my tits. Yes I want HK to stay but there will always be a spurs there will always be beers to be drunk and football to celebrate WE ARE FUCKING SPURS
 

Wasn't this the same Chris Sutton telling us we should sell him/he should leave to win trophies??

Yeah, Chris Sutton, the archetypal journeyman player LUCKY enough to have been at the right place, at the right time with Blackburn...

Hanging on Shearer's coat-tails like the 'straight man' in a comedy double act!

...and now he knows best?

Absolute clickbait boring wanker....
... and there seem to geca fair few of them knocking around the media now

Stiiiiiilllll, as long as they're happy Kane has left Tottenham, we can all pick up the pieces and get in with our lives...

Still fucking hurts though!
