We had no contract. He clearly wanted to stay so we get the second loan term on different terms, similar to what Chelsea have now paid. He doesn't accept, he doesn't get to stay, simple.
Anyway, it's immaterial. The point is though, and this is where we agree, it's stupid to buy a top class striker on top class wages to sit on the bench. We need someone who would be willing to do so, and they aren't going to be easy to identify.
I reckon, as stated earlier, Kane fits that bill.
There's a whole different argument evolved since but I will say this, I can spot the potential in Kane. Something that wasn't there in the names being bandied about by way of comparison. It's pretty clear.
Darren Bent? The Geordie fat boy with the pony tail? Don't make me laugh, they were clearly never anywhere near as good. Ever, at any point.
