We really are that far behind the likes of City, Arsenal, Newcastle, and probably Liverpool. And then another tranche of sides like united and maybe one or two others.The more I think about it the more I feel that the chances of Kane staying beyond next season are increasing.
if Man City wanted him they would have stumped up the cash last year. It appears that most of the noise about Kane moving there was coming from the cockwomble. IMO City would pay the money for a longer term striker if Haaland goes rather than take a 32 year old whose career is coming to a close.
That leaves the rest. We are not “That Far” behind the others. With the right manager, which we appear to have finally landed, and the right investment in the defence we will be in the mix for CL football 24/25.
Bar City there is no other team in the PL who are guaranteed trophies.
If we get everything aligned this season and really have a go, I can see Kane staying.
Big onus on us getting it right this season, but it is not absurd to think we can finish top 4.
And theres no way more top 4 participation is enough for Kane anymore. To his credit, he's well beyond that.
It's one of the great things about footy that there's always a close season and some hope and optimism around next season. But Spurs fans need a bit more realism about how atrocious we were last year. It's going to take time to turn that ship around. The squad is a mess. The new manager has to handle that while evolving a risk averse side to becoming a much riskier one.
And Kane on a free is a nice option for everyone, including City.
