Definitely get what you're saying. Personally I liked van Persie a lot better after he left Arsenal lol.I do just think it's a bit sad; I get that players have always gone to the best teams but Bayern will win anyway. It reminds me a bit of Van Persie going to United - yes he won the title, but he burned his Arsenal bridges to become just another face at United. Same with Alexis Sanchez, actually, but that didn't even have the success he wanted. So unless he has a Modric/Bale-esque impact where he's a figure of their most successful period in years, I just don't see this going the way he ideally wants, given that legacy is clearly important to him. Plus, it's a huge change for a player who's 30 years old - how often has a player made their big move that far into their career?
Realistically, he'll win a few trophies that they'd win with or without him - I do sincerely hope it's worth it, and that The Age of Ange makes him a very successful warm-up act. If this sounds bitchy and like a coping mechanism, it's because it is.
I think with Kane, either way, whatever happens from now, he knows he's already secured club legend status here and will always be welcome back. As much as we wish he would stay forever it's not looking likely so for me now I think I'm almost at the acceptance stage, if he goes to Munich or Paris or Madrid I just wish him well. And I would absolutely take up the buyback option in a couple years time, don't care what anyone thinks.
