Gary Jacobs of The Times says we are "increasingly resigned to losing him"

Bloody hell, 31 August cannot come soon enough

Half of this saga seems to be

"Bayern intend to submit formal bid." or "Bayern indicate they intend to submit new bid."

Do or Do not. There is no try.

or something.

After the Barcelona performance, Harry has to be watching this team and wondering what the limits are with and without a world class CB.

I know Richarlison works hard and he will get some goals but how anyone can accept him to replace Kane is beyond me. They're worlds apart and I say that as a fan of Richarlison. We have to keep Kane no doubt. I'm so fed up every window falling short somewhere. We are 1 more quality centre back short of the best squad in ages. Sell Kane and we leave ourselves short of quality again.

OKAY Mr. Merson ! ..
If you say so 😏😏😳😳

Paul Merson says Tottenham cannot reject Bayern Munich's imminent £94.6m bid for Harry Kane - but warns Spurs they are not a top-10 side if the England captain leaves the club.

Tottenham can't turn this money down with one year left on his contract when they think he is going to walk for free at the end of it.

Yes, he's 30 years of age but I don't really pay attention to any of that. The way he plays, I think he can play until 35, 36 easily. He doesn't rely on pace, his brain is as good as anybody's.

I'm still shocked here today and I don't know why Manchester United didn't buy him. If they had, they would have got a good four or five years out of him and they would have won the Premier League.

You have got no choice - surely they can't let him go for nothing next season. Whoever you are and in this day and age - and I know there's a lot of money in the Premier League - but you'd be mad to reject this.

Will this Tottenham team get in the top four next season? I'd be shocked. So it's not like you're keeping him and definitely getting in the top four, so whatever we lose by selling him, you're making it back in the Champions League. That isn't going to be the case.

Why couldn't he go to Chelsea? He can go wherever he wants next summer. It all depends on what is going on now. Is he sitting there and Levy is bidding him out of going to these other clubs? So could Kane go: I'll sit quietly and do you [a disservice] and leave to sign for Chelsea? Mauricio Pochettino is there too.

Manchester United have just paid £72m for Rasmus Hojlund, so they can't go and buy Harry Kane. If this lad doesn't produce, he will be under enough pressure as it is. The only way he joins Man City is if Spurs say: can we get Julian Alvarez in return? Because he will score goals.

Kane scored 30 goals last season and Spurs finished nowhere near. You feel sorry for Ange Postecoglou, but you're talking about a team who might, might, get in the top four if he stays, to a team who doesn't get in the top half if he leaves.

They're 100 per cent a bottom half team if he leaves. Who is going to get the goals? They finished eighth last season. I like James Maddison, he's a good player. But Leicester got relegated.

Is that the same Merson who said he should stay and will score plenty with Maddison?

I mean he's even here arguing both sides. "You have to sell him, because money, and because he'll go to Chelsea otherwise!" and then "They might get in the top 4 if he stays, but if they sell him, then they're 100% fucked".

It sounds both mad as shit, but also like reading this thread at times, just coming from one person rather than many!

The difference between 4th and 14th is £20m. There is another £20-30m for Champions League football. Add in a couple more million for matchday and merchandising revenue.

And that's just prize money that is easily quantifiable. We're competing for advertising, sponsorships, and other opportunities to use our brand reputation to increase revenue.

If selling Kane really does drop us to a bottom half team, then we'd be fools to let him go. One more year could easily be worth more than what Bayern are offering.
