Funny enough, Poch never compared Kane to anyone when giving him a glowing review. In fact, it took desperation to even play him.
And fair play to Harry for taking that chance.

Salah was epic against us and was by far the best player on the pitch. Almost every Spurs fan wanted him after that, and if not for Chelsea, I reckon we would have got him. And played him. Unlikely Chelsea. Who signed him to stop rivals having him.
He's already missed 14 games for Sevilla this season through 2 injuries.
He missed aprox 150 games during his 5 or 6 seasons at Spurs.
In a way, regardless as to how bad Gil has been, getting Lamela's wages off the books and an "asset" in return" isn't bad.
To my mind, if we sell Gil today for £10m that's fair. Lamela was and is worthless. As in, nobody would have paid money.
So realistically it wasn't £20m + Lamela. It was £20m and Lamela's wages off the books.
