Seems like we were waiting for the Brxit vote to be REMAIN to make the £ stronger and got it wrong!
How do you know that ? Are you ITK or just guessing ?

I didn't say everyone is available at a price, Kane is not one of them. However there are plenty of strikers out there fully capable of providing sufficient cover for Kane and available at a fair price.Watford rejecting EUR 46M bid from Shanghai SIPG for Odion Ighalo sums up the current situation. the moment Batshit leaves for Chelsea for EUR 40M, the prices of strikers just got even more distorted. Likewise if MU comes in for Kane, what price do you think he would be sold since there is always a price? Just to illustrate my pt.
The tv money had inflated player prices esp those that are in demand. I just hope we close this deal asap since it is the most impt position we need to fill. The rest we can wait, no problem.
This sounds exactly like Berahino deal right up to the part before where it says "AZ sell him for an undisclosed fee"I didn't say everyone is available at a price, Kane is not one of them.

I think this deal will happen soon anyway. All the signs are there. We put in a bid, they reject it. They ask for more money. The player suggests he isn't happy. AZ sell him for an undisclosed fee and tell the fans they tried to fight for him but he wanted to leave. Although I'm sure we have other cards up our sleeve in case it doesn't happen.

Indeed - the cards up our sleeve in case the Berahino deal didn't really pan out eitherThis sounds exactly like Berahino deal right up to the part before where it says "AZ sell him for an undisclosed fee"
tbh that's a bit of a wishy-washy story. I doubt these football business men are that short sighted. Everyone else is buying/selling this week.It was informatio

The word 'Spursy' comes to mind. Clubs that take care of business properly off the field are more likely to take care of business properly on the field.Whenever we are close to getting over any line, complications always tend to fly in from every direction, left right and centre. No club on this earth is better at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory when they are touted as being so close to achieving an objective......

I just hope we make moves now to either sign this Janssen guy or admit defeat and move on to other targets before we run out of other targets
It was criminal to make Kane play the whole season as the only true striker in the whole squad last year and it would be inexcusable to do the same again this year and repeat the same mistakes in the transfer market
We've had a long time to assess the market and identify targets - we should have a 10 fold deep list of viable options and have a max spend attributed to them, once we reach that value they're either signed or we move on to the next one. No more punching a stone wall trying to sign players for a price the selling club won't accept right up until the last min and watching the window slam shut with us empty handed
It would be very unfair and potentially career affecting to expose Kane to the same level of high intensity football for a whole season again. He needs someone who can share the burden effectively
You may say a lot of things about our club's transfer policy but this is just stupid. Sterling weakened on the referendum result but there is no indication it would have strengthened on a remain vote. Economically all of Europe would have preferred a stay outcome so to think the Euro would weaken is a pretty random forecast. All sorts of outcomes were possible and to suggest THFC were relying on a specific outcome before concluding a deal is fantasy land. The club will continually hold positions in both Sterling and Euro for such eventualities.Seems like we were waiting for the Brxit vote to be REMAIN to make the £ stronger and got it wrong!
I highly doubt you are in the minority in thinking it would be negligent if we repeated the mistakes of last year and ended up without a striker to support Kane againI know I am in the minority but if we start the season again without an additional it really is negligent especially after seeing Kane in the Euros where he looked pretty jaded.

From Grenada a team also owned by the Pozzo family, who own WatfordWatford just signed a player for £12 million from spain.. I wonder if Brexit affected that deal?
You do realise that we aren't the only team who haggles and tries to get the best deal and inevitably misses out on transfer targets?
It also sounds like other deals that have come off. Besides I think West Brom could afford to keep Berahino because of the money in the EPL these days. That's why you see the likes of West Brom and Watford asking crazy money for their top players because they don't need to cash in now. I'm not sure the Eredivisie is in the same boat though.This sounds exactly like Berahino deal right up to the part before where it says "AZ sell him for an undisclosed fee"
Of course I do. I don't know whether we manage to screw up more often than other clubs, but it seems that way. Maybe it only seems that way because I don't take so much notice of other clubs' transfer business.You do realise that we aren't the only team who haggles and tries to get the best deal and inevitably misses out on transfer targets?
