What makes me kinda chuckle is Levy is doing his utmost to try and not spend money on players but wastes fucking millions on sub standard players and terrible deals... he is useless when it comes to football matters but more then likely great at asset management.

There are some seriously errr..challenged people that think H is no good.
Tbh i wouldnt believe a word out of that self serving prick guadiolas mouth
If we can get Conte, let's see how Harry goes for the rest of the season. This might yet work out...
Come on then 10 games in.
A lot of you were happy as Larry we forced a player to stay who clearly didn't want to. A 28 year old who is only likely to decline even if his heart was in it. A player entering the 2nd half of his contract with no incentive to sign and no desire to play.
His value is and will continue to decrease.
Our chairman is very unlikely to make up the difference in lost income to sign a replacement when Kane either leaves or becomes so useless we have to drop him
So, who still thinks we did the right thing refusing to negotiate?

I would have expected Kane to behave better than he has. He always came across as quite down to earth. But this is like Jekyll and Hyde stuff now. Since the end of last season he has turned into a different person. So with hindsight, yes should have been sold.
Has there been as much as a peep from the guy on TV or social media lately (outside of the England camp)? Or is the chap hiding and shirking any responsibility?

I said at the time, sell. We kept him. And he will undoubtedly next summer. But a year older, 1 years less in his contract and I suspect at 50m cheaper than he was valued in the summer gone. Masterclass from Levy, eh?
This situation cannot all be down to Kane. Nobody is scoring for spurs because of the lack of quality investment in attacking areas allied to the fact nuno is a tool who cannot pick a team.
Is Kane missing sitters? No is he getting on the end of a cross or a through ball?
No because they don’t supply any, it’s just passed back to the defence.

We had 75million plus 25 million extras. Making it a 100million and with mancity theres a big chance that those extra clauses are met . We could have negotiated to get to 110 million overall if bald fool had brains.
The England team is really good, he can get away with being a slug in that sort of team. He'd get away with it in the Mancity team. With us, where we dont have the players to overcome his lack of movement , he is shite.
If the offer on the tale is £75m plus £25m in add ons (as widely rumoured) - he conversation is pretty straight forward
'You have to be joking, come back with a much better offer and we may be able to talk'
Given Man City happy to pay £100m for Grealish the offer for Kane was just insulting, worse than no offer

Whilst City opened the bidding with a pathetic £75m + £25m in add ons, I do think a deal could have been done. With the likes of Laporte, Bernardo Silva, Jesus being offered up as potential swaps we shit in the bed. I’d have taken those 3 without a penny for Kane , then signed Ings for the £20m or so that Villa got him for. We would have been a considerably better side now.
At the time I said I would sell Kane for £120m as I didn’t want a unhappy player at the club, I feared an injury or a lack of effort would harm us this season, but I didn’t think it would be this bad.
Levy should have said you have 2 weeks to get a deal done, our price is £120m (or x amount plus players) take it or leave it so it didn’t drag on all summer.

Right now we might as well play JimmyThis is the legacy he can have with us if we wants. It's not too late.
Most likely not, however Levy didn’t even enquire and most of our fans were saying they didn’t want City’s cast offs which was laughable. Nonetheless we should have got rid of him, we choose to keep him instead of trying to get a big transfer fee.
I read your previous post. Their manager went on tv saying what he said because an offer was either made and rejected or if levy is just not willing to talk. Levy is an idiot, so it is possible that his ego got the better of him and he 'showed' them who's boss. As expected it was a bad decision and he wont even get what he was getting before anymore.
