I sincerely hope Harry stays!
If he does move to another club, I would be "thrilled" if Tottenham "look after" Randal Kolo Muani!
A force on the ball, dribbling until you think you've been on a merry-go-round, a goal scorer!
When I saw the first clips of him on YouTube, I couldn't believe that he was actually coming to Frankfurt.
Kolo sees the Bundesliga as a springboard for his career and is flirting with the - in his opinion - best league in the world, the PL!
And if he goes to the island, then he should make it the coolest club on the island.
Eyes open!
Point is who cares who scores the goals and how many aslong as we get the results because one thing is certain under Postecoglu we will be playing good football and that is going be a marked improvement on the dribble we have had to endure the past 4 yearsKulu scoring 20 goals ?
Sounds realistic
I agree, but I'm not sure we'll have a choice.
We could play hardball and refuse to play him if he won't sign either an extension or a transfer, but it'd be cutting our nose off to spite our face and he knows we'll cave the moment we stumble a bit without him anyway.
Still think he's going to Newcastle on a free next summer with a fat bonus to pocket for his trouble. Think it's already agreed, which is why he never really acted as though this may have been his last season at Spurs.
100m for Kane on his ownI would hate to see him in a Toon shirt
I’m up here in the NE atm with Mrs B for a few days in a place called Newbiggin on sea which is lovely some 30 miles from Newcastle itself
Wherever you go there’s Toon posters and nearly every car has stickers etc
Every pub is decked out in them
Absolute fanatics and speaking to a few, as they’re really friendly, it’s them or City for the league next season!
JoeLinton similar hero worship to Shearer!
They were very sympathetic to me with us having Levy as they had to endure Mike Ashley
They would love Kane and had a good laugh when I insisted that he would come as a package with Dier!
I really hope Harry signs another two year contract
Perfect time to buy him while he's banned as there would be less competition for him and more afforadable to us. He'd be banned for the first half of the season, we can struggle with Richarlison and then Toney comes in and we are fine after JanWe’ve been relying on Harry to pull us through for years. Time to grow up. If he doesn’t sign a contract then sell now. New era. New striker. No idea who because nobody’s as good.
Thinking longer term: Maybe a cheeky swoop for Toney while he’s banned?
Not 100% sure, but in the past Son hasnt been affected by Kane's absence much. He scored more when Kane was awol. And also did quite well when we reached the CL fine when Kane was out injured.without Kane.... Son's goal tally will halve

He’s a center half.
Lautaro Martinez, on the other hand, is a useful forward.
Son, Richi and Kulu aren't bad players, not if they each play to the best of their abilities. Which is where Ange comes in.Calvert Lewin is no better than what we have aside from H. Which is in itself quite concerning.

DCL being a centre forward complements Son/Kulu as wide strikers and gives us another option if Ange wants to use him as a target man.
Its possible Toney turns to shit in 6 months. But him with 6 months off would still be a better choice than Richarlison. So Im not completely against having him as Richarlison's replacement and get another attacker instead of Kane.You say this, but time waits for no man...... Are we really happy to potentially handicap our new gaffa for half of his first season?
Poor man’s Dele in various respects.DCL scored 2 in 18 games last season.
Also:
Yep Brighton just came 6th with Danny Welbeck up front. None of their strikers scored more than 10 goals. Apart from city none of the top 4 had a striker who scored more than 18 goals.There’s a concept called spreading the goals around the team. We need to upgrade the attacking midfielders and wingers department (seeing as it’s virtually none existent)
Everything went through Kane and it’s stupid to expect a single player to pick up the slack.
Move Son upfront and let him and Richy share the 9 duties between them. Load up on creative talents.
Upgrade the weak points of the team (CB, GK,)
There’s life after Harry Kane and seeing Spurs fans getting tunnel vision with regards to him is depressing.
