Harry Kane is playing with fire. That's the problem when your brother is your agent. He tells you what you want to hear and not what you 'have' to hear.
It would be amazing if I could work 24hours, and sleep the usual 6 hours too. Only so many hours in a day, mate. Kane is going in order to pay for the new players.
These videos are almost therapeutic. Thanks for the update Ali!
I agree totally about wondering where the bid from City is. We all know Chelsea have made bids for Lukaku and they've been rejected. I can't find anything that says City has made a serious bid for Kane. It appears to have all been speculation so far.

Brilliant podcast again, best and very balanced views when it comes to Tottenham news. Thanks Alasdair.
Granted I am typing this before watching the full video but I’m really confused by the whole Kane saga. I remember reading a week or two ago that Kane would miss the Man City game as he would be granted extra time off due to fatigue?? Which would make sense as to why he hasn’t been back in training yet.
But the fact that Spurs haven’t commented on it is very strange and more so that Kane hasn’t strongly came out denying he’s missed training makes me feel like it’s true.
You built a new stadium the kiss of death for footy clubs expect relegation fights from here on in as the "Kane Mutiny" follows on from Poch losing his mojo and Mourinho turning into a chimp.
People forget Leicester endured relegation before the unlikely title win and it is a fact EVERY club who BUILDS a new footy stadium goes into freefall (City were GIVEN an athletics stadium to avoid the curse).
My club Everton are in the throes of a new ground it's guaranteed we'll be wound up within 10 years.
This really seems out of character for Kane and after seeing the reports that Kane’s team have said he’s back on the weekend and that it’s been blown out of proportion, etc I do wonder if this could be a super Levy tactic 🤔 He knows that Kane is going to force his way out and the fans will crucify Levy if he sells him, so he allows him extended time off (as reported a few weeks ago) and then allows everyone to believe he should’ve already been back, has missed training, etc so that it damages Kane’s reputation slightly and also gives Levy a fair excuse if he does end of selling him because everyone will say “well they had to let him go if he refuses to turn up for training”. But if that was the case I would’ve expected a much stronger response from Kane to deny he’s missed training, which I haven’t seen.
It’s all just very weird and out of character. His whole team should be sacked for allowing this to happen, all this does is damage his reputation as a Spurs legend and his reputation as England captain.
I’d be disappointed if we got less than 160m for Kane. People outside of Spurs talk about Kane’s value but they don’t consider the value Kane has (or had) for Spurs! It’s a bit like Zaha at Palace, is he worth 80m? No. But he’s worth 80m to Palace! Because without him they’d be in a real relegation battle and they don’t want to take the risk of replacing a star and getting it wrong. Just look at the 7 who replaced Bale.
Indeed. Kane is disrespectful for treating Spurs like this. No matter what, he has been well paid, looked after and NOT disrespected. Wrapped up in cotton wool if you like. Be a man Harry (and I'm one of your biggest fans) and do the right thing. YOU signed a 6 year contract in 2018 and so you should ab ide by it. Sorry, but it's true and fair, and, right!
Times are a'changing be nice to see how Nuno Espirito Santo sets us up.
Agree with your Alasdair…..just when you think you know someone (and their likely behaviour)….you just don't. By the way, what do you make of all the talk of Skipp being loaned out this coming season?
Vlahovic reminds me of 2017 Kane
As always another excellent video Alasdair & really enjoyed the first episode of Gold & Guest 👍
Romero is a very good signing just what we need at the back , Kane news is disappointing but not getting carried away as Levy will do what he feels is best for the club! COYS
The issue is this gentlemans agreement, what is in the written contract, thats whats binding. However if there was some sort of verbal agreement as you rightly say Ali if City want the player pay the money and maybe this verbal agreement will be satisfied. Harry cannot expect Levy to just roll over and agree to City demands.
Its a shame the way Harry has gone about this, tarnishing his great name. Also he has played in finals for Spurs, and he didnt turn up, so he is not exempt in us not winning trophies.
No player is bigger that the club period!!!
The sooner this mess has been resolved the better.
Great content Ali

If this has anything to do with ‘gentlemen’s agreements’ (which it may not do), then, being heavily involved in negotiating and finalising contracts in my day job, I wonder how much of the present issue between Harry and the club is down to Harry's advisers/agent(s) and ‘really poor past admin’. My clients will often say things to me like ‘I don’t need to write anything down OR have a detailed agreement as the other party is a close friend or someone special to me and we won’t have later disagreements or agreement issues’. I’ll reply that it’s even more important to write things down when people we deal with are special to us: we probably don’t want to EVER fall out with them and we don’t want stupid misunderstandings to cause a rift that, perhaps, can never be mended or that can cause catastrophic problems. Hurricane OR his agent and Levy should have written anything important down … thence there are NO disagreements, NO differences over ‘gentlemen’s agreements’ and NO issues …. I trust Tottenham is important to BOTH parties: certainly it is to Daniel who, IMHO, has done wonders for this club and cares for it to his very soul – of that I’m sure! WHY bring this catastrophe upon the club ?: Hurricane should have had any gentlemen’s agreement confirmed in a short note that both agreed to …. Given past history, the fault lies on Harry’s side, sadly, if he didn’t do that ……. BUT sincerely hope the stories around this are NOT true …
IMO: I don’t see why we are so desperate to keep Kane. Even with him right now we aren’t getting champions league football. He deserves to be at a team who can win trophies. I do agree that the club should wait for the fee they want but we should be looking to sell him rather than just rejecting the offer. I’d take £150 mill or something where city add a player like jesus, Laporte, mahrez or Bernardo silva but it doesn’t sound like we’ve been negotiating at all. I just feel keeping Kane for another year would be pointless. We won’t improve incredibly and Kane may decrease in value if he gets injured or doesn’t perform as well. I don’t think what Kane is doing is fair but he has to try and force himself out of the club some way.
For me, Tomiyasu is THE really big one. With his qualities & strength & having Japanese pride, he'll fight for everything & imho is liable to end up being another true superstar like Sonny. Not that anyone is like Sonny!! Love him!! (PS: Think of the potential shirt sales, too!!)
Its all to get people talking trust me a fact is harry is a Tottenham player that is it he is going city but he going next year
This is Charlie Kane’s doing, the gooner prick
Great Vlog again Ally, Your assessment is spot on yet again, based on sound common sense and reasoning. I love Harry, but his stance is idiotic and just doesn’t make sense. He is risking permanently damaging his legacy at Spurs. A move to City at any price is not worth that. He seems to have got this catastrophically wrong at every step of the way, I actually feel more sadness than anger at the moment, but if he carries on the way he is that will change. I can’t actually believe he’s been so stupid, its enough to make you weep. But his antics make you realise just how special Sonny is, and how lucky we are to have him.
Son centrally and Ryan on the left wing.
Kane is embarrassing himself ! Jack Grealish class, goes back and was happy stay at villa , no drama. Good luck jack . That’s how to behave
Ings signs for villa !!!!
What a small mentality club we are
It seems like Harry Kane has set his own price? I’m not a Spurs fan but it’s absolutely bizarre
If City pay the £150 million we are asking for, Kane can go. However, awful way to push for a move. He's clearly had woeful advice.
Such a messy situation now. I don't want to see Kane back with us now, as he's shown where his head is, but we can't just bench him if he isn't sold. Hope City stump up the £150 million and Kane is shown the door.
Don't let him holding club to Ransom . If you let a player throwing his toys out of pram. He is worth more than 130 million Man City are coming with. Levy said his not selling him. Son isn't a Striker like Kane.
Man City offered 130 million . Levy says he isn't going We have not a Striker to match Kane
bang on Ali, Son, steps up Kane always goes missing in finals, CL,EFL etc .. even the Euro he failed to deliver … rather keep Son than Kane, jsut gove us 170 million and get shot of Kane. I begrudge him a move as he lets us down ….
Well Ings went to Villa, who saw that one coming?
This is what happens when you have your brother or father as your agent. If he had a proper agent instead of giving the feckless brother a job, he wouldn't be in this position.
I honestly don’t see the point in keeping Kane anymore. He clearly doesn’t want to be at the club, and I feel forcing him to stay might have bigger repercussions than letting him go for a cut price. If he stays, there’s no guarantee he’ll perform like he did last season and the harmony in the dressing room will be damaged. You’ll be lucky to get 80 mil for him next year, and there’s no way he’s extending his deal
Nobody wants to right the fact Jose sacking was a major part of Harry Kane behaviour . Was it chelsea or united , people would have gone mad for sacking a manager before cup Final. But you don’t want to talk about it .
Take your Tottenham glasses off for 5 minutes. Which football club would pay 150 million for a 28 year old striker? I can't think of one. Kane shook the hand of Levy after the deal was done in 2018, allowing him to leave if Spurs hadn't reached the heights, which under Poch they where well on their way to. The Cancer in your Club is Levy and you are backing him up over a great servant and player in Kane. You said it yourself Tottenham wouldn't pay the money for Grealish when he could have come to you. Yet levy is effectively pricing out a Kane move, which is stopping him from fulfilling his career. I back Kane here, he is not the enemy, Levy is.
Kane is 28, has ankle issues, a shorter contract than Grealish and Villa are more financially secure atm than Spurs. £120m would be a fair price which isn't far from City's opening offer
Romero might be the best Tottenham transfer since……?
I'm just not used to the Spurs getting great players in their prime in the transfer market.
Rubbish re Kane- he can do what he wants in my opinion- he’s class others aren’t anything other than selfish
Even Vodafone should be cautious of Harry Kane after this nonsense!!.
Kane ain’t goin nowhere
This next sunday Man city will sit on a table with THFC for long hours. Man city will offer 130M + Bernardo Silva + add ons for Harry Kane. THFC will accept the bid.
Bernardo Silva wants to leave Man City because of predictable less minutes consider due to arrival of Grealish and Pep choosing Mahrez&Torres&Foden over Bernardo Silva.
Nuno will be delighted to add a Portuguese player to the club.
Then after three days, THFC will sign Tomiyasu and Also they will prepare a bid for Dusan Vlahovic. 🤷♂️
So what ever happen about "we don't talk about other teams players!!!!!!" Alasdair maybe you could put that to PG when you do the pre match interview, that plus Kane's statement today really starting to lose respect for this extraordinary player so sad.
