On his way out it seems after Robins comments.

I think with Kane it might be he wasn't happy playing second fiddle to Dabo. Just a guess like. Nothing wrong with wanting to be 1st team, sometimes it motivates players and others get the hump. I think it was the same at QPR with the video that was released. Maybe Robins couldn't guarantee him first team action. All conjecture of course. Any other theories?

I wonder if he’ll release a sequel to his previous social media outburst, this time citing that he’s better than Dabo

Haven’t read MR’s interview yet, but am intrigued to do so after your comments above comes across as a bag egg who is too big for his boots. If that’s the case, Robins will move him on without hesitation I’m sure.

“With Todd, the situation may develop where he’ll look to play his football elsewhere. I spoke to him about that at the end of last season and that might happen. But all the rubbish I heard about (on social media) was ridiculously poor from whoever was doing that

Come on, own up….Who started the shitting in boots and shagger rumours

Todd didn’t travel. I just wanted to bring the squad that I brought. We had enough in terms of what we were doing and I thought Jack Burroughs did really well when he came on and he just gives us something slightly different, and that’s that.”

He added: “With Todd, the situation may develop where he’ll look to play his football elsewhere. I spoke to him about that at the end of last season and that might happen. But all the rubbish I heard about (on social media) was ridiculously poor from whoever was doing that.

“We have just got to make sure that everyone is ready to go and be at a level to go in wherever that might be, whether it’s here or somewhere else.”

I don’t think it matters , he will be going and it demonstrates we need to free up wages

We don't need Kane. Dabo is first choice if fit and Burroughs could do a job for now if he's hanging around. MR praised his cameo today

Move waghorn out as well if we can, not needed

Eccles has proven more than capable at RWB too (though he's going to be needed at CM a lot this season).

I liked what I seen of Burroughs last year in pre season...he is comfortable on the ball and passes quite well

Looked class until he got injured at Stoke. If he can stay fit, there is a player there.

Kane had a few great crosses in his first few games and has better than dacosta when dabo was out, but he did regress

He was really rated at Spurs until he got injured.

If he can also stay fit, then there is something to work with.

Kane was fine, as good as we could have got to cover Dabo being injured. If he can be moved on without any further cost to us it's a good move all round

I like Kane. Few times I saw him he played well. Must be off the pitch stuff mainly.

Seems a troubled guy. Hope the club have supported him in getting help and now is the right time to move on for both of us

Don’t think so, he wants regular first team football same as he did at QPR, we are well covered at rb/rwb and he was always going to be behind a fully fit Dabo, if Robins can redistribute Kane’s wage and he will be on a decent screw that should be good.

The nonsense about him sleeping with colleagues wives was obviously rubbish & not particularly clever.

He's a decent player who possibly needs help to get back on an even keel

Once Kane has gone will you be able to reveal the story you heard about him?

Robins said there has been interest in him, could it be Birmingham? as I guess John Eustace was at QPR when Kane was there.

Would be a solid signing for them tbf. He’s a decent championship wingback and covered well for us. But he’s no Dabo.
