Good read on why Rice is worth such an expensive fee. I know @williek311 was having doubts, there may be others, too.

 

Did NOT see this coming.

 

Levy: *crickets*

 

Champions League officially starts today. Only the preliminary stages, of course, but fuck me the football calender is restless.

 

Kane going to Bayern and winning the league title won’t make him any better of a player.

 

Already rejected.

 

Of course not. But he will finally win something. What’s more, he’ll get to play European/CL football again.

We can debate what is better, to be a Spurs lifer, or win an easy trophy, but it’s only him who knows what his priorities are, I guess.

 

Tottenham have to sell an rebuild, right? Obviously world class strikers are few and far between but he just leaves on a free most likely after this window, right?

 

Yeah, he's in the last year of his contract and very unlikely to resign.

 

The funniest thing that could ever happen as a neutral who admits he’s one of the best strikers in the world would be for him to go to Bayern and them fail to win the league for the first time in over a decade.

 

If he’s not going to sign a new deal, we need to sell him. I’m fine with that. I just think it’s lame to join a team who’s won their league 11 years or whatever in a row just so you can win a trophy for your legacy. Big congrats.

 

United are based in the Caymen Islands after all

 

the anti-Koulibaly. Regularly touted as one of the best centre backs in Europe. Leaves Napoli and they win the league. Shipped off to Saudi Arabia soon thereafter.

Actually I think the same thing happened Griezmann twice. Leaves Atletico, Atletico win the league. Leaves Barca, Barca win the league.

 

Haha. Yup! If Spurs went on to win it a season after he left, it would be hilarious, too.

I just don’t want him going to Madrid.

 

Despite his poor season I think I’d be fairly comfortable with Richarlison being the starting CF next year. But I’m assuming we’d bring in some competition for him. Just have no clue who we’d target.

 

Bayern probably made Levy extremely angry with that bid lol

 

would be a good option for Spurs, or us really at that price.

 

Levy is going to refuse to sell and gamble on Spurs winning FA or League Cup next season.

 

Nothing like one of these fake “insider” accounts quote tweeting Fab when he reports something they had guessed correctly a few days prior lol

 

just keep lowering it until he's either playing for pennies or leaves
