Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
It’s been so obvious since the start of the window, yet so many people tried to kid themselves that he was going to stay and maybe sign an extension
Whilst I get this, it's Kane that is wanting out, not us wanting him gone. This transfer doesn't happen if Kane wants to stay at Tottenham, he doesn't. The decision was his. He hasn't wanted to be at Spurs for approx 4yrs, a certainty for past 2.5yrs when he didn't come back from hols and wanted to go to City.
We set a valuation, it wasn't matched and therefore rebuffed 3 times. Valuation finally came through and he's off on his bike. I don't blame him, but thank him for his services to Spurs - see you in a few years' time back at The Lane once he's retired. I also wouldn't blame him if he stayed (because Bayerns bid wasn't high enough) and he left on a free, he would have earned that.
But this is a new era now - New manager, new style of play, one that Kane may have struggled with in a couple of years time anyway (I think he would of adapted well this season had he stayed and he would have scored a hat full) but it would also of had Ange adapt his game to fit him in, which wouldn't have been an issue initially but suspect it would have been a problem next season.
Ange now gets to pick his striker for the football he wants to be played - I find this exciting.
That's why Levy is where he is today tbh. Countless lies and deceitful behaviour yet a large portion of the fanbase still fall for it.
I did say that Shakhtar could have been a testimonial for Kane. In front of the home fans one last time.
It's Kane that wanted out fella.
From what we've been hearing during pre-season Biss might also be a fair shout.
yes I know..I'm speaking general.
I'm fine with him going tbh. Sad it had to come to this but we couldn't lose him for nothing. Providing we bring a few decent players in we'll be ok.
I love how straightforward Ange is. Just tells you what he know or what he thinks
What lies were we told about Kane this summer?
...............Sounds like behind the scenes everyone was on the same page and knew the score. That ought to please everyone about how things were conducted.

It’s a very human way of thinking. I remember talking to a friend once about splitting up with my girlfriend at the time.
I (obviously) didn’t tell her there was someone else involved. Who wants to hear that? I told here it was down to me. Not her. Just me needing to sort my head out.
However he had recently split up with his girlfriend and was adamant there was no one else involved as that’s what she told him.
But of course there was someone else involved
I had to stop him trying to fight them 2 months later.
Moral of the story. It’s nicer to live in cloud cuckoo land isn’t it? And tell the story we need to tell to get there.
Yes.......
............And that Levy should have announced everything in advance of any deal being struck.
It’s Dier mate
He doesnt want him in his first 11, he wont make him Capn' ... its defo SON, he loves him
The lies were told on here.
People saying that Ange was blind sided, that he'd been "Levy'd", that Maddison was promised that Harry would stay etc, etc.
