Transfer discussion thread

[Marcel Proust]

Not similar at all. Kane's 28, has a history of injury issues. Coutinho was sold in the January window where prices are generally further inflated.

A massive fee for Levy / Spurs will be much more difficult to achieve in the current climate. Which is why I can see him probably staying on.

27

27

Will be 28 by the time he plays for any potential new club.

 

[Marcel Proust]

Nope, you said he was better.

Do you ever get tired of being wrong? Really, really wrong?



No, it's not your fault.

On the other hand your continuously spamming the forum with poorly thought out, horribly written hot takes is definitely your fault.



He wasn't serious.

You on the other hand would do it without a second thought. Who do you support anyway? Or do you just buffet around on the breeze of fashion?

You've posted a lot of Brooklyn Nets stuff this year. Don't really recall you posting much when the Nets were going through a nuclear winter, funny that.

Wow lots of words about basketball in a association football transfer discussion.

I support mvfc.

The nets are interesting cause they are the best team ditto harden one of the best players.

I literally wrote better at shooting and the theme is the hawks being greater than the Mavs, as a collective. I hate to wag my own tail but they won the most games since that comment. (Or since the coach was changed)

The majority of my comments are transfer news sorry if it upsets you

Very few of my takes are hot. Kane would fit in well at city. Ditto mbappe Madrid, harden nets etc.

If kane leaves, which he will I suspect, good luck with the future. Hopefully goes better than the bale replacement army.

Kane is pretty robust and doesn't rely on pace. His game will age well and the comparison is fair imo

Robust? He's injured for significant periods each season just about.

Plays a lot of games most seasons.

If you were city HQ he would be high on the list. Worth breaking the record for.

This is the first season in the last three where he has played more than 30 league games.

He is not harry maguire but the number of overall club games played over the last 5 yrs plus goals, assist - is not too shabby.

England games too and defenders seem to tackle him poorly often.

Haaland and mbappe are good options too for city. Messi would be fun but harry is the best fit from some ways of looking at it.

Would score crazy amounts in that team

I think it is overplayed. Most of his injuries are contact injuries.

So mostly bad luck. Whereas someone who repeatedly pops a hammy is injury prone.

Other than the times he’s been caught in awkward tackles and sprained an ankle he’s hardly had any other injuries.

 

[jd2010]

The fact he has to bail us out on Thursday's in Macedonia or Bulgaria and then front up for 90 mins on a Sunday wouldn't help those ankles either.

Eh I think he has weak ankles. Spoken as someone with weak ankles. While they aren't dodgy hammies, they can be just as iffy.

 

[Frank Bunn]

Unsure why you are taking it so personally. All I said is that if city signed Kane it doesn't make them unbeatable. Now you've included a player who mostly plays wing to try and argue what exactly?

No side is unbeatable. But you said that City would have to change their tactics to accommodate Kane. I think that's incorrect.

Pep has a long record of signing players that fit into his preferred tactics so I guess we'll see what happens.

You wrote that I was a drunk Collingwood fan. Which was ironic itself, considering your posting history.

I support mvfc.

Well that's great and all, but a bit of a non-sequitur for purposes of this discussion.

The nets are interesting cause they are the best team ditto harden one of the best players.

Yes, after about 500 mainly superfluous posts about the Nets in the space of a few weeks, many suspected that you found the Nets interesting.

I literally wrote better at shooting and the theme is the hawks being greater than the Mavs, as a collective. I hate to wag my own tail but they won the most games since that comment. (Or since the coach was changed)

No, you literally wrote Reddish >>> Doncic.

What's even more hilarious is that he's not better at shooting either, he's one of the worst shooters in the league. Couldn't make this stuff up.

The majority of my comments are transfer news sorry if it upsets you

What like posting something addressed "to the guy that said X" about free agent buyouts? Something else you were utterly wrong about?

Very few of my takes are hot. Kane would fit in well at city. Ditto mbappe Madrid, harden nets etc.

You called Doncic "a fat efnic chucker". You're Twitter, anthropomorphized.

Ta. Your sincerity is duly noted.

My friend - harden to kd and kyrie was a big deal and you blokes trying down play the nets.

, at the time reddish was shooting +40 from distance and trending up iirc.

I have told you before I love the fat white Slavic lad and wish him luck vs PG and kawhi which sounds harrowing.

Doncic has improved his 3s since then significantly. That we are talking about nba here should be a sign you have a problem. I don't mind the personal attacks but I am more interested in how the window pans out.

If you are a spurs (soccer) fan good luck with the future

Edit: in regards to the buyouts they keep closing the threads before I can reply to the quote. That was an interesting topic. You were off the mark I feel on that one too.

And I am speaking as someone close to having ankle surgery. Believe me I know the pain as well.

47 games this season at club level.
34, last season.
40, 18/19
48 previous to that ...

Skipper of england in his spare time

And people keep smashing into his legs. Might get more protected at city too with the friendly refs.

Thread’s going beautifully.

Not as good as the Boston Celtics

If Pep is after a striker that fits into his preferred tactics they won't be going for Kane.

Why not?

Who would they buy? Aguero is a key out

The false9 market doesn't seem that strong this year.

Messi might stay (at Barca) sounds like (?)

 

[chef]

I think Kane would be perfect for Pep.

 

[pantskyle]

Why not?

Because Kane doesn't directly fit into Peps tactics. He does more grunt work around the ground than Aguero or Jesus. Those are the players Kane would replace, so naturally tactics would need to shift.

Lol, you called me a drunk Collingwood fan.

Taking lessons from you in common sense is like taking shooting lessons from Cam Reddish.

at the time reddish was shooting +40 from distance and trending up iirc.

Nope, at the time he was shooting sub 30%. Your memory is god awful.

Edit: in regards to the buyouts they keep closing the threads before I can reply to the quote. That was an interesting topic. You were off the mark I feel on that one too.

You said he could be bought out. I said he wouldn't be. Aaaand.... he wasn't.

How the hell do you figure I'm off the mark? Actually don't answer that, I don't want to go down the looney tunes rabbit hole any further than I already have.

Cognitive dissonance doesn't even do service to your lapses in logic and recollection. This does though.

 

[Frank Bunn]

Pep's tactic is to not have a main out and out striker. I would not call it grunt work. It's dropping into the midfield to link the play. Kane is the best in the business right now.
