Judging by some of the thoughts on Tel,been there and done it!
Everyone please for the love of God avoid reading too much into Fabrizio Romano's waffle tweets.
You will see a lot of;
"They call to be informed of his situation
"They continue to insist on"
"There are internal discussions"
"Very difficult move"
"Tottenham remain interested in"
"Tottenham are still in for..... situation is still not closed"
While he's obviously reliable all his posts are highly monetized and transfer season is his Christmas so word salad is on the menu.

Was that before or after he ate some magic mushrooms?
Levy really has become a figure of fun to be teased and humiliated
We can’t succeed with him. His pockets aren’t deep enough. He regards anyone spending more than him as “unsustainable” as they pick up elite players and trophies.
Every £ he regards as his own money. How much lower must our wages be now than the big 5s?

No judgement here.Tbf iv nicked a couple of half decent ones at that sort of time
He who casts the first stone and all that......
But Eze would have helped us win...
With the caveat, unless it’s to Spurs.
Why wouldn't he want a player to go to Spurs, specifically?
Actually quite intrigued to see what bollocks comes out today from the Twitter journos and fake itk on there and other places. Probably more going round in circles on the bullshit.
Because we are one of the clubs that don’t roll over for them and let them tickle our tummies.
Except for.....
Richarlison, Solanke, Johnson, Kudus and Bissouma obviously.
Other than the ones where that isn't the priority, which is plenty, you're 100% right
I think this next few days is the moment.
Levy either responds with conviction and swiftness or he surrounds himself with the sycophants.
I don't agree with the disgusting remarks some make, which show zero appreciation for what he has done for the club but we need to see a powerful and robust response.
If not, we become perceived whipping boys for that big 4 + 1, and increasingly some of the other clubs.
Yep. Look at the players we've bought from prem clubs over the last few years.
Richarlison, Johnson, Kudus all from clubs who had to sell urgently due to PSR. Maddison one year left on his contract and relegated, Bissouma one year left on contract, Hojbjerg one year left on his contract. Even back to Sissoko, relegated and club cash strapped and Wanyama one year left on his contract. This is the area Levy wants to operate, both financially and for the buzz/ tough negotiator persona.
Then think of others where its been tougher, Mane, Wijnaldum, Zaha, Neto, Gallagher, Guehi, Gibbs White, Eze. I can only think of Solanke over 10 or so years where there have been no club or contract issues.

Probably at this stage.
After this week's shenanigans, if we really wanted Savinho to happen then we'd have made it happen by now.
City's target Rodrygo has been benched and looks like being benched for the foreseeable future so Man City must know whether he's gettable or not and exactly what it will cost them.
They will know the cost to change and if they wanted to sell Savinho then they'd have let us know what price he's available at.
If we wanted him then we'd have got him by now.
And before anyone starts throwing Isak and Guehi as examples, both of these players are key to their clubs and are seen as 100 percent first teamers so it's not the same situation in the slightest.
Let's try not to go overboard with all this. It's not the worst model, but it needs to be a mixture of opportunism, super scouting and taking a punt, all underpinned by quality coaching.

We're not even making an effort though.
Despite similar resources, the ambition between two traditional, bitter rivals is chasms apart.
Not one Spurs fan on the planet should be happy to settle for this, surely to Fuck.
