Kane is 30. He's the England captain, the top leading goal scorer, has played in Euro and CL finals, big matches. He went to the world cup this winter, bottled a penalty, and then played one of the most brilliant 4 months of his entire career just to see his manager collapse, get sacked, his replacement concede 6 goals in 10 minutes to Newcastle, also get sacked, just to end up in 8th place with Ryan Mason.

What fucking brand is Tottenham Hotspur offering him. He has all the goalscoring accolades and records one could ever want. He has all the love from Spurs fans he'll ever get. He has nothing to gain by grinding for 7th place and maybe a cup final for the rest of his career.

Also Bayern actually have what is called depth, and play in an easier league, so if anything he will have an easier time playing football and extending his career there. Here he has to run his arse off and be at the centre of every single thing we do to score goals.

Big matches, big trophies, world exposure in the CL... at age 30, that's what the Kane brand needs. Trophies galore. And I can't blame him. He has given his all to the football club. It's Daniel Levy and the club who has failed to give their all to him.
Great post

I’d still try and keep him though
 
Who is actually taking/making phone calls this window?

Paratici - Consultant (Not allowed to negotiate with other clubs)
Gretar Steinsson - Now with Leeds
Gabbinini - Head Scout (Not sure he's got the background to negotiate deals)
Munn - Blocked by City Group

So, if it's just a jet-lagged, Kane-focused Levy handling all of the negotiations with every club over 10+ outgoings, potential signings, hotel builds, women's training ground plans, etc., then no surprise nothing is happening.

Yup.

My guess:

Gabba and Ange deciding who comes and goes.

Levy doing deals and deciding budget. Probably feeding them plenty of excuses as well.
 
Really wish Bayern would shit or get off the pot. I honestly don't care either way if it's VDV or Tapsoba, neither can be worse than Dier, so can't we just pick one and fucking sign them irrespective of what money we have coming in? We need to sort CB out whether anyone can be shifted for cash or not, what's the fucking point of dicking around?
 
We really need a meme for old boy learns about GTA! Lol Yes grandad there's a strip club there too.So after a little GBH with said baseball bat bank robbery backseat action with the hooker of your choice you can chill at bar and watch the grind. Ask Carl Johnson Carl Johnson he'll fill you in.

Only game i have played was Championship Manager 97/98!

The first thing i would do every time, was trying to get rid of Dean Austin and Justin Edinburgh!!

Not playing video games doesn´t mean you´re old, it means you are sane!
 
Would people prefer Dier at LCB or Lenglet?

Lenglet. He's much better on the ball and also better defensively.

Which you know ... not good for Eric, because Lenglet is pretty weak defensively. I think Lenglet is better in a 4 than Davies too ... I don't mind Ben (he's alright as a LCB in a 5 and OK as a defensive minded LB) but he's got his limitations.

Lenglet isn't totally awful at footie or anything. He can ping a ball and does make tackles. He's just plodding and incredibly underwhelming as a potential signing, as well as being on a good wage.
 
Both Dier and Davies are too slow, always have been and are only going to regress. Lenglet, sheesh, not good enough to be starting, perhaps if cheap as an option from the bench, if we move on Tanganga and Sanchez, but we still need better centre half's to start alongside Romero and preferably two of them.
Imagine if a Kane deal is done we won't hear until a few signings come in, cannot make the same mistake spammers made selling Rice so early and now everyone is increasing fees for them by at least 10%.
Difficult fee weeks ahead and not the start the new manager needed to be presented with
