Never a truer word spoken.
Kane is irreplaceable. A striker of his level wont go to Spurs, he'll want CL football and a shot at titles.
Their only hope is to find a hidden gem and develop him, which will likely take a couple seasons at least, unless they have another kick ass striker in their academy.
Levy will have set Spurs transfer budget for this summer, and I doubt it'll change, no matter what fee they get for Kane. Only one place that money is going, and that is Levy's and the board's pockets.

Spot on <ok>

The other hope is Nuno pulling out some gems from Portugal?

But that depends on whether the budget he's got is more than the price of a weekly shop at Lidl.

If Kane is sold then we will be weakened.

If he is sold and the money is all reinvested well we could kick on. We were mathematically in with a shout of a CL place until 3 games before the end of the season.
So 3 or 4 more wins (we'd have got top 4 if we hadn't kept conceding goals in the last 10 minutes of games last season) could make all the difference.
In this case the difference between £100m and £160m matters a lot.

If the club sell and don't reinvest the money then things will turn real ugly real quick with fans back in the ground.

Personally I am torn.
On one hand I would like him to stay and us to get a replacement for Aurier, two CDs and a DM as I think that would give us a fighting chance of top 4 and possibly another cup final.

On the other hand I hate when players pull the "I deserve a trophy" card out of their arse.

Like I said before ... the bloke hasn't scored or assisted in 4 finals.

What ever happens Levy and Enic need to get this season right or the **** will hit the fan....my money is on @Spurlock leading the charge into WHL with the pitch forks by the end of the 6th game after we've lost to City, Arsenal and Chelsea!

That's the key though. Do you think he's going to reinvest the money in players

I think it'll defo turn real ugly when they're back in the ground, I've seen your fans <whistle>

I think they'll go for Danny Ings for about £35m and the rest will go to pay off some of the $$$$ that Levy owes on the Stadium.

wasn't it questionable agent links that got some of the players through the door, not the lure of working with Nuno.

He's in the last season of his contract so I would guess it'll be lower tbf...but think Southampton will keep him cos he could well be what keeps them up next year and that's worth more than they'll get for him.

We seem to have a few offers in atm for different players so maybe we ate spending the money before we sell to keep the prices down...a club will demand more if they know you've just received over £100m!
How's life treating you BTW?

You'd think Southampton would fight tooth and nail to keep him, as like you say, he's the difference between them staying up and getting caught up in a relegation battle. And yeah the trouble for Spurs is that when Kane goes and you've got £120m sploshing about, clubs are going to rinse you for any players you want to buy in.

All good here thanks fella. Have been recovering from a few injuries lately, but getting back into my swing again now. Hope you and the famalam are well ? x

One to watch this season like, if I was Liverpool I'd try to cash in now before everyone realises he's lost a decent amount of talent.

I get ya, think it best we give the world class, Champions league winning defender more than one meaningless friendly after a year out injured before we write off his whole career though.

Nobody wrote off his whole career. His exceptional standards of 19/20 were out of his reach even last season before his injury, never mind after Pickford turned him into a rusty old crane.

Bearing in mind if Varane doesn’t win the PL & CL double within 20 mins of his debut for United, Bindippers will swarm like a pack of homosexual locusts, so I think I’m entitled to laugh at King Virgin looking like a battered old dumper on his long awaited return. So ha ****ing ha.

Not even remotely.
None of our fellow London clubs can come near us in terms of rivalry.
They too far below our radar :p

The London clubs I hate the most, in order of most hated to least are, QPR, West Ham, Tottenham, Fulham, Arsenal, Brentford.
And the others I dont even consider.
