If City fans had to pick one at the start of the window you'd think the vast majority would have picked Kane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I do think signing Kane would have been far more beneficial than Grealish. Kane must regret signing that 6 year deal. Definitely need to respect the deals they are signing. If you sign a 6 year contract you’re their property-the way it should be Though I think if he wasn’t a Spurs man he would have forced the move by being awkward.

Even if he waited until he ran down his contract, there will be a move for him to PSG, Bayern or someone in Italy if he wanted it where he'd win a couple. Obviously if he wants the big pots like the PL and CL then presumably he will need to move within the next couple of windows. Would be interested to see if there's any gentlemens handshakes attached to this decision to stay now. A certain price agreed for him to leave if Spurs don't win anything this year etc. It's Levvy though so probably not. Next window is when Haalnd is in his final year of his contract though I think. 29 year old Kane or 22 year old Haaland? Whoever advised and helped Kane sign that 6 year contract when he did wants shooting. But then again, Spurs looked like they were going somewhere at the time with Poch, the stadium etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 The only way he was going to get that move was to kick off a right fuss and force their hand. The best he could come up with was not turning up to training one day and talking to Gary Neville on his podcast a few months back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said before that for the sake of signing Grealish and trying to sign Kane, I think I'd have chucked £200m at Dortmund now and have done with.

SiJ Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Got to think City start looking towards Haaland now. Question: If Kane breaks the PL goal scoring record - but finishes with no trophies - does that damage his reputation, legacy etc.,? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David May won the PL with two different teams. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ever the pessimist Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I’m pleased he’s staying. Or, more accurately, money has not won the day this time (for now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Shouldn’t have signed Grealish, don’t need him and could have put more money in the jar for Kane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I still wouldn't be surprised to see it go through tbh. City need a forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be easier to score goals with a top side like City than it as at Tottenham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dronfield Blue Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I would still prefer Haaland to Kane, though Haaland won't be available until next year according to reports? 4 and a half days left of the window yet. Lewandowski? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be interesting to see what "improved deal" means in this scenario. I wonder how many 10's of thousands Kane would shave off his Spurs deal to also knock 3 years off it..
