Personally I have not see anything from Kane to prove that he is the answer to anything just yet.
And no, has nothing to do with fancy names or lightning pace. It has something to do with a heavy, heavy touch and not being able to find space consistently against good teams. Also, for a lad standing almost 190 cms tall, he is curiously lightweight, as if his sense of balance and body position is all terribly wrong.
And he isn't that "young" either. In fact he is just about a year younger than Eriksen.
We still need a striker to cover for Ade. I think Lacine Traore would have been perfect, if we did want him we easily could have, if Everton and West Ham was the competition.
I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Fredy Guarin come in and Lamela going the other way on loan.
Would be gutted if that happened

As I mentioned before, don't be surprised to see a Levy-time deal for Berba.Oh Holbtys G/F posted some photo of their new house in London on Instagram, hopefully means he's not going anywhere

How is this related to Holtby?
Well, I could very much see us getting Berba in exchange for Fulham (who can get one more PL player on loan) getting Holtby on loan.
New house, but in London + Fulham also in London ... 1+1 ... is ticking all the boxes for me.
Must say I disagree. Kane has always impressed me in the youth team and in his few cameo appearances in the first team he's shown some real moments of quality. Have people forgotten his cameo against Hull? Also whilst he's been getting some stick for his performance against United I think he did everything he needed and well. Finally you say he has a poor first touch...? Where did you get that idea? From what I've seen of him in the Europa, against Monaco, against Hull and in the youth games I've seen his first touch is incredible.
As for you suggesting he's lightweight. Firstly what makes you say that? I haven't seen anything to suggest he is. Secondly any other player with so little Prem experience everyone would be sticking up for and saying it takes time to adapt to the physicality.
If we got Guarin, would this mean that we would put Eriksen at the flank instead of the middle?
I like Guarin but i would rather give Eriksen the center slot.
