That remains to be seen. He's had 1 good half so far in pre-season.
Sure but Kane is just a far superior player so we’d be better with Kane playing… even if his play style isn’t optimal for it.
Chadli was also a great buy who we doubled our money on after 2 seasons, Paulinho was shit for us but we broke even selling him on so wouldn't call it a disaster, just a bad fit, Chiriches again a squad player who didn't do too well and was sold at a minimal loss, only Soldado was an unmitigated disaster out of the "Gareth Bale 7", some would say that a few of the absolutely sensational goals Lamela scored for us were worth the money we spent alone.Why?
Last time we sold a world class player we spent all of it.
Ok, so apart from Eriksen (and sort of Lamela) it was mostly wasted. But we did spend it.
AND it tells every top player that if they ever consider leaving us, we would rather sabotage their career than win more games.
Depends on who impresses in training. Play players on form, don't bow down to player power, especially if said player is looking to snake the club.M'thinks you'd play Kane up top on Sunday if we could.
M'thinks Ange would too.
I was joking - he’s been utter toss. Brazilian Carlton ColeMinus the goals! Im
Yet to see what some see in him for £60M.
Lots of players out there who could do the same and then some. He needs to step up big time. I’d be happy to sell him buy Orban and use him as backup to Kane or one of the wide players.

Agree but only if we get past the last 16. Big risk to even qualify let alone progress that far.If Kane starts at CF this season, we could get top 5. CL qualification and extra PL prize money gets 40-50m; which is half of what Bayern are offering anyway!
Losing Kane on a free after benching him all season is the DUMBEST OF ALL WORLDS.

Would Scott have done for £20M plus HG and a spurs fan? Im sure we”ll buy some one from abroad.See above, but to elaborate, I like him, he could definitely do a job (better than Hojbjerg, most weeks a pretty good one, but I would like a right busy cunt 6 too. More tenacious than Bissouma, more athletic/imposing than Skipp.
Likewise, it’s f Ndombele is off, I’d love to add another specialist 8 like K Thuram.
Midfield is going to be vital in the new system. A really good, specialist 6 can be crucial in a cm3, allowing g you to have two good 8’s.
I have no idea. Like I said I've seen 1 half of good football from Harry this pre-season.Oooooh, you little wriggler!
Based on everything we've seen in pre-season...... You HONESTLY think Ange would play Richy if Kane is available on Sunday? .....And if he does it'll be because he's being a pussy and being 'played' by Kane?
"Snake"......... LOL. Sort it out, mate.
It wouldn't be a case of "player power" either.
Hugo won't play for us again. Let's hope he gets this move.
Glad to hear on the sane page.

My inner chaotic is hoping he goes to Madrid and stands out winning the CL, just to see the meltdown on TFC.
