Clearly that's not the case anymore. He doesn't want the player to leave, club don't want to sell. This is the new City.

People were saying the €70m was just City giving us an unrealistic valuation. Seems that is absolutely not the case. And for those using his fee that city paid as any sort of indicator, it's a moot point. They're cheating the system. He would've been a €50/60m player.

Clearly City value him much higher than €70m, so it's obviously not City trying to fleece us, like everyone thought.
I read levy is one of the chairmen really pushing for club to be investigated regarding the current charges

So the rumour the higher-ups don’t wanna deal to him fits

Still a who knows … but that’s what I read

No, we were short in that area when we were overreliant on Maddison, a single player whose form and fitness are inconsistent.

We now do not have an entire football team. That's not "short".

I only pick on you personally because I respect your usual clear-headedness, but the performative pose you're doing here sucks, man
I wouldn't dispute that we're short for a second but we looked every inch an "entire football team" in our first two games.

And still we all,including me, choose to believe every report that is negative and disbelieve anything that offers a glimmer of hope. Thats what all this has done.

If Levy is the cause of what seems like an agenda of crap from the football fraternity, then he needs to recognise that and move aside. If it's just a quirk then that's what it is.

We do definitely need a couple of players brfore the window closes, but we also want yo pursue players who are likely to be here in 3 or 4 years, and not those we will be looking to move on in 12 month's time.

It's rough.
 

"That frustration among supporters led to a very low-key launch of the club's third kit this week. The decision was made not to push the kit out on social media as would ordinarily be the case due to an acceptance of the current mood surrounding the club. It was expected that the response to posts would be overwhelmingly negative, and there will instead potentially be more publicity around it once the transfer window closes."

We're nowhere without any lock-pickers against the balance of our fixtures and I have absolutely no doubt Thomas Frank is communicating that to Lange and Levy in no uncertain terms.

I still very much expect a major purchase in that area, but there are disturbing echoes of 2018 around atm.

That's bizarre, why not just wait to release it until after the window closes entirely?

Sounds like a load bullshit to me. There's 18 clubs excluding Chelsea I'm sure, who are pushing for that.

Seems more like they want to keep a player that they think will turn into a star, rather than some conspiracy theory.
