Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I think we would have been better off if we sold Kane and used the proceeds to reinvest in strengthening our overall squad, particularly in MF and defense. We were linked to many players but at the end of the day, as it currently stands, we're worse off than we were last season.

Who would we be signing though? Players with potential. People kept talking about Vlahovic like he's proven but realistically he's had one good season in his entire career as of yet. He's proven absolutely nothing. Harry has proven plenty. If we could attract the best players and were playing Champions League football I could agree with you more. But signing a few decent to good players and losing one world-class one isn't good business however you look at it.
 
King Kane left his dominion momentarily to discuss business with Lord Levy, and his little gang of whisperers. The houses squabbled in his absense, each making a claim to his throne. Oh how the Puff guts and the shag-bags frolicked in their heretic bluster, jumping for joy as they swept lies across the forums about the King.

and now the King has returned, and the serpents have slithered back into the shadows from where they came, scorned and fearful that the King shall take their heads. The once laughing whores now beg on their knees for mercy; “Oh King Kane, how wrong we were!” cowering like unsullied pagans.
Step away from the pipe
 
:mourwhat:

Had hoped the Adebeyor elephant song was relegated to the dustbin of history, not our finest moment.
Just unnecessary, even for a gooner.

As for the continued vitriol by some towards Kane and his brother.

Turn it in ffs, the man made a mistake, he's trying to mend bridges and says he is 100% committed to the cause. Until he proves otherwise he has enough in the bank to merit a little forgiveness.

And if you can't manage that what good does it get anyone to keep ripping on his brother?

This thread has devolved into cuntery of the highest order.
 
Not in the same way, as Burkinshaw thought Pat was at the end of his career and had a good replacement in Barry Daines (a rare mistake by The General). Pat didn't want to leave London and the goons made him an offer.
Well if we get a replacement for goalie, Id still be shocked if Lloris would decide to join arse. Maybe the rivalry wasnt as intense back then? Again this was a few years before i was born, so its just a bit strange to me.

Going back to the 6-4-0 formation favoured by Jose without a striker whatsoever? Yeah ok mate

Yeah like I've said before, that's on Levy to execute. All I can say is that we've finished 6th and 7th the past two seasons and it looks like our overall squad has less depth than we had last season. Hopefully we improve somehow but on paper, it doesn't look great for us. Personally, I am not ok with ECL level football for the next 2 seasons.

I agree with all that. And at least you accept that Ndombele needs to leave so fair fucks for that. Northing worse than someone continuously defending a player just because.

Kane staying changes little in the grand scheme of things. We still need 3 or 4 good signings. But at least now we also don't have to worry about a replacement for a world-class forward/player.

Don't give up the day job (unless you're a copy writer).
 
I think this may be Levy's best moment, he hasn't been bullied by oil money or tempted by oil money and he must realise Kane's value will go down dramatically next year when the whole shit storm will begin again.
 
He will not be a worse player. Just one who does not want to be here.


If he continues to do what he's always done, and I believe he will, then I couldn't care less as long as the effort and quality is still there. If we have a good, positive season and he can see that the club is moving in the right direction then his current opinion can be changed.
 
Well that was out of nowhere!

1. For a start that rhyme/chant was obviously a fucking light hearted joke.
2. I've issued you with a foul vote for a) calling me not a spurs fan and b) calling me a rat. Forum abuse is no longer tolerated so I'm sorry I had to take this measure.

I suggest you do not stray off topic any further.
You're a paragon of virtue! (that's a good thing)
