Rooney to Everton would have been close.

Even with Bayern that is a long bet.
It's a big gamble and he's risking the EPL record as well because Bayern will not be letting him leave any time soon and that record will be gone

I think they will be favourites with Kane. They have the complete setup.

I absolutely love and adore him for everything he has done for Spurs.
Possibly in a minority, If he leaves, I don’t want him to win a thing with any other club. The legacy he could have had will be completely tarnished.
I know that ultimately that Levy and co have failed him and us which contradicts the above.
I’m Gutted

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet but it does seem a little weird Englands national team captain going to Germany biggest team, Englands biggest rivals.

IMO I think the experience with City and the fan backlash made him realise just how much his legacy with this club is actually important to him
So he’s getting us a fee and avoiding moving to a rival. At the same time he’s giving himself a shot at the CL and perhaps the Ballon d’or.
This isn’t altruism, he wants to remain a club legend and I suspect that he is also leaving an option open to return to us in the future when perhaps his status as a club legend will mean our giving him the game time in his later years to still have a chance of taking Shearer’s record

Funny how the Germans don't consider us as their main rivals. We are West Ham in this situation, a one-sided rivalry. At the national level, I should stress.

The mood will not pick up whatever we do.
We can't really compensate for Kane in terms of incomings. It may be best for the squad and playstyle but will cannot get equivalent personnel in.
And the thing is, even if we do what people want - entirely refresh the CBs etc. any other flaws that become apparent will be a stick to beat the club with.
The only thing that can hold off the doom-mongering is if we start playing well. Even then I think some people will require almost perfection in order to ease off.

I don't want him back if he goes because hopefully, we'll have no need for him and he'll no longer fit our style.
It's time for us to move forward.

Yes he realised the fan backlash.
Maybe that's important to him.
No, he's not getting us a fee. He's forcing a move. No, it's not altruism. Yes he probably wants to remain a club legend. But no he won't be returning to us. And no he wont reach that record if he goes to Bayern because they won't sell him for another 4 years

I think Utd signed him around 04? but Rooney wasn't England captain until 2014.
This does feel a little like that sale, losing a generational talent primarily down to club performance and player ambition.
Big difference we've had Harry for 20 years and 280 goals.
Beckham from Utd a good one. Not the leading talisman but still an important figure.
Utd were definitely better equipped than we are to manage without. And maybe a glimmer, did go on to win the FA cup the following season.

Going the other way in 2017 - when he was allowed to leave United on a free to go to Everton. He was still Captain on England in 2017 - but he did relinquish it at some point that year.
