I don't want him. (well I would be not for anything close to what Spurs would want) We should be aiming higher - Suarez tier. He's played better last couple of games but I've seem him in some matches and he can look like a drunk Rooney
Never worth that much, there must be a good young striker out there who wouldn't cost more than 30m, there definitely is.
Sure there is. The problem though is for every good striker who costs just 30, there are 10 other strikers who look as good but in the end result in failures.
It's hardly going to make or break him, apart from Utd he has a very good record against the top teams.
Didn't score against us though
He's probably the first player in a long time who has a chance.
) so it doesn't seem like he can't handle the pressure. His goal record in the league is phenomenal.Which is a big if, and I don't see it happening. Even if Poch got 100m to spend, how would he improve what he lost to a direct rival? Could we buy back Bale for 100m? We don't have that pulling power. On top of that, the signal it sends out can be even more damaging, and I really don't see it happening.
The only possible English clubs whilst Levy is there that Spurs would accept a bid from are City and Liverpool, and they are both extremely unlikely.
He's the type who just won't go to China, he's a career footballer and I'm absolutely certain he thinks he can beat Shearer's PL record.
What if they offer him a million a week?
I get the reluctance Levy would have to sell to Arsenal (not that they'd bid 100 million) or Chelsea (not that Kane would move here) but is the relationship with Manchester United really so bad? Surely he has a pragmatic side to him.
At the time Bale was sold to RM there was pretty good ITK coming out of Spurs and we all knew despite the lateness that Bale was going to RM. Utd as confirmed by Moyes recently were interested and desperately wanted him but contrary to some media reports I don't believe a bid was ever made as they got a flat we aren't selling to you from Levy. There was even talk that they were prepared to go to £120m, which I do find hard to believe, but I'm certain they would have gone to £100m but Levy gave them zero encouragement.
I don't know but we could play this about every player.
Fair play to him yesterday for doing the Bebeto celebration. Or maybe he regrets having it.
The relationship with all the rivals is that way now.
That example is pointless because the gap between those bids is unrealistic. I'd prefer City to sell Aguero to Real Madrid for £50m than to Arsenal for £60m, for example.
If Kane did a Payet and refused to play and there were no offers from abroad then depending on his contract situation (which is currently 5.5 years) he'd probably be sitting in the stands.
Whilst I agree it would be a lot more difficult for a Premier League club to get Kane, certainly than in years gone by, I think you're a bit naive in the sense that there will only be five clubs in the world that would sanction the kind of bid required and three are English. Spurs could well be in a situation where given the costs involved only PL clubs are interested (plus how many English players choose to move abroad).
If you think Spurs are in the financial position to write of a £120m asset and pay someone £5-6m a year for several years to sit in the stands I think you need a reality check. Not that I think it'll happen of course.
It was a ridiculous hypothetical answer to an equal question as there is zero likelihood.
Same sentiment. Will be a consistent PL scorer but he doesn't have the game to be in that top echelon.
It'll be another 10-15 years before Spurs can offer a salary of £12m+ (by which time other clubs will be offering even more). Even Arsenal who have been at the Emirates for a decade and are years ahead of Spurs in terms of sponsorship deals are struggling to offer Ozil/Sanchez the £10-12m a week salaries they are looking for.
