Fair play to Parish, he knew he had to sell Eze this window and had the offer from Woolwich. He wanted the release fee price and got it by dragging Levy along. I am imagining him laughing as he watched Levy gleefully enter attack mode, arguing over the desired font in the contract.
I said it a week ago and I said it yesterday, we won't sign Eze. I didn't think we had the real desire to actually buy a proven player over whatever perceived value Levy has in his head. I was wrong though, it was never going to happen because Levy was played. Played by Parrish, played by Woolwich and probably played by Eze. It felt wrong from the start, then it just got even stranger; the constant "really close", "really really close now", Eze was playing on the weekend and "we need to him to play on Thursday, just wait".
The whole thing was strange, just like the ridiculous rumours about Savinho, which won't happen.
