Sevvy Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Looking at the amount of goals harry Kane is scoring at the moment perhaps we should have swopped him for Jay, what do other people think
Lighthouse Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 We were also talking about a swap deal with Andros Townsend. Things like this are easy to say in hindsight. I should have bet my life savings on a Bradford/Boro double in the FA Cup and a Saints win at Old Trafford etc.
Batman Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Kane is brilliant Bit of a young Lambert. Decent on the ball. Able to drop deep and scores a range of goals Superb player he is turning in to
Leicestersaint Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 It was rumoured that we were in for him last summer - it would have been a good buy.
Batman Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 You watch him get completely played wrongly for England in order to accommodate Rooney and Sturridge

The Kraken Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 supersonic said: Another one that got away. Shame From what I heard he never "got away" in the first place, we enquired about him (after they enquired about JRod) but we were firmly knocked back. You can see why.

You can see why. Agree, I don't see how a player can 'get away' when he was never here. I'm sure we enquired about dosens of players we didn't sign in summer and indeed every window.

hasper57saint Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Whats the odds that he'll be snapped up by a 'big club' before the start of next season?
pangy Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Well known that Poch didn't rate him and was looking to offload him,wouldn't be surprised if he was offered to us for either Morgan or J-rod

He's bloody lucky with Kane, that's for sure - as i'm certain he was not on his radar when he first came in. (well he wasn't, as he didn't play him)

He didn't get there until the summer? You think he rocked in there, balls out, and said "nah, this lad is sh*t, get him out"? "well known that Poch didn't rate him". Yes, really well known, that one
cellone Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Did all this happen or it there a fair bit of might have?
KK the 2nd Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Hindsight is a wonderful thing! Seriously though, I don't think this was ever realistic and the interest in Kane was just tongue in cheek posturing; if you put a bid in for J Rod then we'll put one in for Kane.
Pancake Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Swop or swap? Mu... Oh I can't be bothered...
Golden Balls Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 He wasn't offered to us at all. They came in with a stupidly low offer for JRod so we went back with (or made public) we'd take their offer PLUS Harry Kane.
Saint_Ash Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 I heard poch is telling him to move to barca! Seriously I think he's excellent and is exciting for England, unfortunately Lambert will make way for him but so he should.
DrZuess1979 the 2nd Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Ok if mopo rated him so highly Why did he stick with adybayor and soldado for so long He got lucky imo and most Spurs fans think it's fan pressure that made him pick Kane
Red Posted 8 February, 2015 Posted 8 February, 2015 Crazy Diamond said: Connor doesn't rate him. Neither do I, but it's only an opinion based on the fact that he has failed to impress until this season and whilst loaned out several times. As mentioned, we did inquire about him and the reaction on here was totally nonplussed, and quite rightly in my view. There is no denying he is on a great run of form, but key question is if he can keep it going or is it a one off? Maybe I am wrong but just think he is having the luck of his life, rather than having been identified as a developing golden nugget who has finally arrived. After all MP did not pick him at the start of the season and was happy to get rid (loan or permanent)

These has been all different goals. Maybe he has stepped up to take his chance as he certainly was not a 25 goal a season striker back in August
Scummer Posted 8 February, 2015 Posted 8 February, 2015 Typical English mentality to big him up into a world beater after half a decent season. I lose count of how many big new 'stars' who everyone has forgotten about a year later. I'm not convinced, he might be good but I'm not getting carried away yet.

Not a world beater granted, but might be good???? He is playing very well at the mo and now a great prospect and like yesterday, now stepping up in big games I remember watching Rodriguez get better and better as the last season went on. Now many saints fans would demand £25m for him whilst out with a serious knee injury If we had an English player banging them in like that, we would rightly be going mental for all sorts of recognition and demand roy puts him straight into the side Edited 8 February, 2015 by Batman

Right now he is very good. He may turn out to be less good in the future but that is true of anyone.
DuncanRG Posted 8 February, 2015 Posted 8 February, 2015 He's not quite the hype striker who seems to score 20 goals by accident then return to mediocrity. His ability and versatility shine through every time he's near the play

But of course, Poch is now the new'Arry in being personally responsible for every young player at spurs as he was with us.
Convict Colony Posted 8 February, 2015 Posted 8 February, 2015 Harry Kane is one of their own don't you know !
Ewell Posted 8 February, 2015 Posted 8 February, 2015 I know I will get mullered for this but just maybe we have our own Harry Kane in he form of Sam Gallagher? The coaching staff seem to rate him highly, he looked very useful in a couple of games last year. He obviously needs to get back to full fitness and work his way onto the bench but who knows from there? A couple of goals is what Kane needed and his confidence has soared since, just maybe we already have our own?

deadpanmatt Posted 8 February, 2015 Posted 8 February, 2015 Easy to say when Kane's in good scoring form and Rodriguez is long term injured. Silly.
