Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Nice to see all these Defenders Of The Kane suddenly appearing like penis snakes this morning. Where you been? Florida?
 
Look, at the end of day, City won’t be paying what we want and Pep’s desperate statement yesterday is proof of that. They have upset the apple cart and are trying to get him on the cheap, pricks!!!! Thankfully it doesn’t work like that with Levy. Harry Kane will just have too like it or lump it. He can always buy out his contract if he truly wants to get out, which we all know he won’t. It’s time to improve the squad with excellent players like Romero and plan with Harry in the team next season. As pissed off as you all are, we are a better team with him than without him. The thought of Bergwijn, Ali etc upfront gives me nightmares. Forget this City bullshit, Kane will be here at least another season and well played Spurs for not being bullied by both Kane and city
 
TBF if he said this a week ago, 3 days before he was due back, it would sound a bit weird.
Harry was on holiday after a long hard golden boot winning season and little rest in the post season due to the seemingly now media forgotten European champions competition. He’s home a few days late- the media put front page spin on it and the so called fans forget his recent efforts and cyber-crucify the man before he’s allowed to say his piece. With the exception of some sensible responses from Beech Beech this past few days has sadly read like a proposed Harry Kane lynching.

So much butt hurt in this thread.

Grown men slagging off a player they used to idolise. Because he has the sense to want to leave a sinking ship after giving everything. Being the new Jimmy Greaves. Single handedly beating the scum on numerous occasions. His achievements for us manifold.

But he has taken on levy the liar and now he's the devil.

Lol. You lot deserve Levy.
 
regarding the Kane statement yesterday, the timing of it is too coincidental with the Grealish transfer and Messi news.

He's just trying to appease the fans now as I think he knows he is in the wrong but I don't think a lot will buy it because like mentioned, why not come out on Monday and just explain what the situation is and carry on with his work. That would have been the better option.

I wouldn't be surprised if he signed a new contract to get everyone back on his side, but then has an actual release clause for next season.

That is what should happen but I can only see that occurring if he signs with a proper agency. His brother isn’t going to be able to broker that with levy. He’ll come out with Kane having another 6 year contract on lower wages if he tries to negotiate that with levy.

Lol because he's gone about this the wrong way. Corrupt billionaire playthings pleading poverty and putting the onus on Kane to drive a price down. Whether an agreement is in place between levy or not - we don't know - it wouldn't have been "city can fuck us over".

Guardiola is such a cunt. He then comes out talking about Bernardo Silve saying he’s our player, under contract and we will decide what happens with him. Talk about hypocracy after talking about opposition players in Kane. He’s a classless spoilt prick.
 
From the Athletic article about City

'Why the desperation to not sell to City? Many Premier League clubs are concerned their success and financial clout are damaging the competition. Villa are not alone in this.'

Would make sense why we are very reluctant to let Kane go there. Very glad that clubs are aware of this as it ensures the PL doesn't turn into say the Bundesliga where all the best players from that league get poached by the top team.

Still fucking take the money though, dont they
 
We need to ensure that as and when Kane is sold that as a club we can say we provided him with a team that could compete.

For me that has been the case for 5 or 6 years. It includes the squad of players and the manager. Let us not forget that we were top for a period last season with one of the greatest Prem managers of all time. That same manager said he had a squad that could compete. Why it went so wrong after the Palace game no one knows.

It is of course fair to say we lack the absolute quality that is needed to sustain a challenge but we have enough to build on.

As a club our structure, our acquisitions and most importantly our player development must be better. Much better.

But Kane has 100% had a platform on which he could have brought us trophies and against that metric he should look at himself because he has fallen short at the BIGGEST MOMENTS. No Question.

Kane's actions in the last 4 months towards this club are something I will never condone. They have been arrogant and contemptuous.

If Kane comes back and scores goals I will celebrate because I am a Spurs fan but gone are lauding him beyond that.

But let's ensure that when he goes we are not left on our knees.
 
So Kane was just taking holiday .

Well the issue is . He's not just taking holiday. He's telling the club I'm going on holiday and I don't care what you think/do.
When there's a new coach , new D.O.F etc.. in you should be looking to impress and meet them. This is quite unprofessional and disrespectful still in my opinion.
He's not refusing to train which is obviously more severe but this situation isn't great either.

However, as I said yesterday I'm very happy to forgive him if he tries to build bridges with the club/fans again and of course performs on the pitch.
 
If it was planned Harry would have logically said so on Monday, the first day he was "due back" and purposefully "missed training" according to the press and squashed the rumours immediately.

Why would be let his reputation be dragged for an entire week, also, why would the club allow the rumours to circulate and not address them?

It makes no logical sense.

The more logical reasoning would be that Kane and whomever is advising him, overplayed their hand have now realised City aren't going to pay the kind of money we want for him and is now in full damage control over his behaviour.
I guess the difference here is that I don’t beilive a word that’s not from an official source and then it’s Nuno comment vs Harry. I pick Harry. I get that it’s easy to believe the story, but it doesn’t make sense to me as much as it does to you. I can believe the club would allow negative press they didn’t explicitly state and Harry performs well under pressure.

prediction: we keep Harry, and he scores 2 against city.

I don't know how long you've been watching Enic but for me I'm glad Kane is calling out Levys bullshit.

Apart from giving into them on a sale and then them continuously coming back for you best players, not selling to them because of that completely makes sense And is pretty obvious.

Yeah my point here isn't just about Spurs though.

Say in the Bundesliga Dortmund's best players usually get snapped up by Bayern
Whereas here the PL clubs such as United,Liverpool,Chelsea,Us etc.. are determined not to sell our star players to other rival clubs or the 'top club - Man City'. This is good as it keeps the league competitive.

Obviously the main reason for not selling Kane is because he's our best player and was the best player in the league last season so why would you sell a world class player.

exactly my point few days ago. We sell Kane to City and it’s a viscous circle. Who’s to say in 5/6 years time they don’t do exactly the same with Scarlett ? If we make City hate dealing with us, then they will never try for our top players ever again. Fergie never used to sell his top players to any direct premier league rival. If Spurs want to get back where we were under Pochettino, then selling Kane too City isn’t the way to go. All it does is put City streets ahead of everyone again. Fuck City and their oil money. They have Jesus upfront and should be thankful they can buy trophies the pricks. The way they have turned the Spurs fans against our star man ie disgusting. Yes, obviously Kane is to blame too, but 100% City tapped him up last season

The whole time thanks.

I'm not a Enic/Levy apologist, but facts are facts. The cunt has three years to run on a contract he happily signed, and the club he's been flirting with for probably a year are taking the piss with their valuation or offer. The player, despite his laughable statement has not returned as expected.

I'd love nothing more than Kane to stay, completely understand his desire and drive to win things he probably won't here.

But ALL of this right now is on Kane, and one of the few times that Levy is in the right.

If Kane's numpty brother hd been savvy enough, he would have inserted a release clause like Grealish. He didn't. Ergo our player, our terms and in the right.
 
Wrong on every level.

Firstly, Son liked an insta tweet criticising Kane. Dier posted an insta story indirectly criticising Kane.

Nuno said it was 'an internal matter'. He would not have phrased it like this if Kane was not meant to come back anyway.
Every single reliable outlet, Alasdair Gold, The Athletic etc. reported that Kane was meant to turn up to training. Instead he is in Florida.
Objection. Circumstantial.
Also same ‘reliable sources’ said he was due extended holiday.
