Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Media stirring the pot for clicks again. Dont fall for the bait.

It seems they were savvy about Kane either not turning up today or leaving early as it would be quick fitness tests.

So they have 2 easy headlines:
1) Kane doesnt turn up to training. Wants out.
2) Kane [S]leaves[/S] storms out early after meeting with Levy. Wants out.

So tomorrow if he is due in... they can show him leaving training centre early claiming hes issued an ultimatum to Levy.

Fuck Kane he is not betraying Levy, he is betraying us the fans. Levy is pretender in charge of the club we love. The fans are Tottenham Hotspur and that is who he just stabbed in the back by not turning up to training. I hope City bid the £160 million we want and he ruptures his ankle ligament never to play football again fuck the traitor.

Awful thing to say. It's a bit "Aesop" don't you think? Play for us or play for nobody. Aesop called it "the dog in the manger."

It makes me so sad to see so many fans turn on Harry now. Once the great white hope, loved by us all. I'm not coming down on either side of the debate

You are though...... Your take is 'Evil Levy lied' (see below).

Spaniel said:
but we should all remember what he has given to this club and for me anyway, you can't expunge the legacy because it's fact, not fiction.

Is that an absolute stance regardless of 'crime'?

Do you still revere Judas Sol's legacy through an untainted lense?

Spaniel said:
I hope he stays but I'm not going to vilify if he follows his dream. I think he's stayed long enough to prove his loyalty. But he can't be at his best unless the whole team improves and he must be frustrated. I think the biggest mistake he's made is having faith in the bald lying dwarf. Good luck to you Harry. Whether you go or stay, you'll always have a legacy with me.

It's not about loyalty; it's about respect and professionalism.

"Bah! Levy lied" is just skewed confirmation bias without having any of the core thruths to refer to with regards to any so-called 'gents agreement'.

Levy would never have promised to let him go on the cheap; you can bet on that......

Well clearly a lot of people were wrong. As I've said already, he's not and has never been Mr. Spurs. All this "Harry Kane, he's one of our own" has only ever been nonsense. If he stayed with us for his entire career it would have been because we actually showed ambition, and won things. Not because of his love for the club. The truth is you'll be hard to find a more unambitious club around.

Sorry, but that's hyperbolic nonsense.

That's the thing that hurts the most innit...if this is all true of course.

He's not supposed to be some other player here. He's not supposed to be like all the rest. He's supposed to be better than that. One of us.

I'm still hoping it's Sky shit stirring.

Almost 3 in the afternoon, if it were that then surely the club, Kane, or both would have made a statement to that effect by now?

Levy’s own words on Berba’s departure back in 2008:

“I don't think Berbatov treated this club with the respect that we honestly deserved. We put him on the map.
“I think he's an outstanding player, but he signed a long-term contract with this club and I think he should have stayed.
“I had so many conversations with him. He kept saying it was about his ambition to play for Manchester United. It wasn't a money issue. We offered him a new contract and he wasn't even interested in discussing it.
“The reality is, in modern football, the players have all the power.”

We extracted maximum fee.... What really screwed us is the manner that Berba & Fergie pulled a last minute sting on us that left us high and dry in terms of getting a proper replacement.

Super player; but fucks me off when he gets ranked with all the other legends.... (Eg. the last game at old WHL.)

I wonder if the next part of Charlie's strategy is to use the "Harry is not in the right frame of mind to return to training and for the sake of his mental health it's best he stays at home" angle :kanehand:

Lots of sympathy atm for sports people taking a step back to protect their mental health

Yeah it’s silly. Frankly as I have said before Kane is partially why we haven’t won anything. From going missing in finals to his glass ankles causing him to miss like 10 games in 16/17 which was our best chance to win the title.

Without him we would have been languishing in mid-table at best in many of the recent seasons for fucks sake.

It really is so cringe to see people suddenly try to make out he's not the player he is because he's upset people.
