It can't be Levy's fault that we didn't get an acceptable bid until now?Mainly because I didn't think Levy would show this sheer stupidity. Three days before our opening game. As I've said, I knew he was stupid, but not this stupid.
This situation is unlike any in our history. Kane has continued playing. Continued training. Reports of him being happy to stay here if no agreement. His camp saying he will be staying if he's here for Brentford etc.
To not just get this done two weeks ago if this was always going to be the outcome is ludicrous. Fuck the money, he cost us fuck all.
