Kane or Lukaku?

[Jonny 2]

Hi everyone, should we believe the rumours that Poch could bring Kane with him this summer? Personally I think that would be brilliant. What do you think ?

Idk man, guy is hella expensive and is turning 30 in 2 months. Could be a typical Chelsea striker signing that turns out a flop or 5 years too late. 

[Jonny 2]

Take your point but he strikes me as a man who looks after himself and still has something to prove and win. So far this season he's second only to Haaland. I'd be very excited to see what Poch could do with this squad without European games, fresher players etc. AND an out and out striker with Prem experience.

[Pizy 18,944]

Levy would die before selling their greatest ever PL player to us. Not when the Spuds fans are already calling for his head. He’d never be able to show his face at that stadium again if he sold us Kane and saw us hire Poch who many of their supporters want back.

[Jonny 2]

He's destined to be another Alan Shearer then isn't he? Trophyless. 

[Mário César 1,280]

kane will go to united

Forget it there's no way will Levy let Kane come here.

Furthermore Kane wouldn't come here pissing off spuds supporters.

Heard reports he doesn’t want to live up north and stay in London.

[bigbluewillie 1,930]

He'll have to either stay at spuds, or go abroad then.

Yeah but he had to leave Newcastle to do it.

You got it the other way around mate.   He won the PL with Blackburn then moved to Newcastle. 
Would have been part of Fergie's golden years as well if things went to plan...but he rejected them in favor of Newcastle.

Feel like he'll stay at Spuds (to get the goalscoring record in PL) or if he really wants trophies to finish off his career then Bayern Munich would be perfect.

If he’d rather be remembered for being Spurs’ top goalscorer winning 0 trophies let him. No point scoring 250 goals if your not going to win any trophies whilst doing it. 

Agree with Souness on his comments about the Kane interview the other day. The guys got a loser mentality for me. Always something. 

[Jonny 2]

Didn't Harry Rednapp say recently that Kane was building a house near Cobham?

I think there is alot to be said about been a one club player, yeah he might not have any medals or trophy's, but to Tottenham he's a football god.

Perhaps - but great players tend to be remembered more for winning trophies. Suppose they can make him a being a god at Tottenham trophy.

For example, Alan Shearer was a phenomenal striker in terms of strike rate but only won 1 major honour at club level so when people talk about the greatest PL strikers, guys like Aguero, Henry, Rooney, Andy Cole, Bergkamp, usually all crop up before he is - maybe unfair in some regards because he is the PL top scorer of all time but its probably because he only won 1 trophy.

Trophy's are teams efforts in a way, shearer goal record is his own I suppose, personally I'd rather play at Chelsea all my life and win nothing but become a legend, than move to arsenal or spurs or utd and deffo Liverpool to win something.
