Harry Kane MBE

If the derisory bids are true and he ends up staying then the club, if smart, could use it as a way of firing him up this season and beyond to show City what they've missed out on. He always said being released by Arsenal gave him a point to prove which aided his development - could be the same here
 

Ah, ok. Got it now. We're holding things up and not playing fair because we won't do something to make happen (at a below-value price) the sale of a player that we don't want to sell, to a club we don't want to sell him to. Yet somehow the ball is in our court. Righto.

And let's be clear, Orcenstein is a gooner of the highest order. No wonder he's amping up this provocative drivel.

His Spurs postings remind me of a wonderful joke out there about a man for whom English is a second language and, caught up in a complicated negotiation, he says: "You think I know fcuk nothing about (the situation). Well, let me tell you, I know fcuk all, OK?!

Unlike Spurs previous high-profile departures, Kane is on a mission to top Alan Shearer's PL goal scoring record. He absolutely need game time to accomplish this. If he's not being shifted to a new shirt, then banging them in for Spurs remains his best option to keep that quest viable.

If, in the process, we qualify for CL, then suddenly we become a viable option for him once again and he gets what he truly wants - a Spurs side battling for all the top trophies.
 
What do people think their bid actually is, have they gone as high as £125m in cash?

Right now, multiple sources have "confirmed" the only real bid City has put in was £75M cash +add ons to take it to £100M

Which if true, meant they never were really going for Kane, only if we were teetering on bankruptcy and had to sell, and even then, I'm sure if we had called United and said £110M cash and he's yours, they would have bought him.

If that is true, and I’ve seen it quoted a few places too, it’s an insult to us and Kane. A complete tinkle take - as if Levy is selling for half the cash amount he’s quoted them. Jokers. Kane has no right being tinkled at us if that’s true.
 
Pep must be sitting there seeing his Champion League hopes fading ever quicker with all the big name movements to Chelsea, PSG and possibly Real. What a shame.

I'd be sooo tempted if I was DL to keep the City hotline off the hook for the next 10 days whatever.
 
I think Levy really feels strongly about not selling to a PL rival.

Yeah I believe that too. Levys spent a long time building us up to be taken seriously and while we've regressed over the last 2 years, we're still considered big enough for the ESL. Selling your best player to a direct rival is not a good look. He dug his heels in on Modric and Bale to an extent. We've come a long way from the Carrick, Berbatov and Keane days.

And that's why they got Grealish.
They had £100m to spend on an English name.
Hoped they could low ball us (naïve to say the least), so went for Grealish to save face. Grealish was never even a rumour until it became clear we weren't going to be bullied.
 
We're now within 7 days of the transfer window closing and realistically, this has to be the cut off point for Levy and Paratici to sell off Kane. Getting in a replacement at this point would prove problematic and, as we're seeing with Romero, any new arrival will take some time to fit in with the established squad.

The same philosophy does not extend to outgoings nor should it extend to any additional incomings that aren't replacements for Kane. We wouldn't want to see Daniel Levy deprived of his annual day of greatest joy, especially with so many pending opportunities to exploit.
