Because Levy created the this situation. He lied to Kane about letting him go, he showed zero ambition and created a scenario where the club is not competitive.
This is on Levy not Kane.
I was fully in the keep Harry camp but now I’m starting to get excited at the prospect of us replacing him and investing all that money rebuilding. But, only if we invest every penny of that Harry money. I want us to sign 2 quality strikers, not 1.
You're either not reading my posts properly or being willfully obtuse.
It also matters that he has 3 years left on his contract and the club want him to stay. The club hold his contract and pay his wages. We've been over this so many times now.
I mentioned Mod as the only one WHO WAS MADE TO STAY. I explained this clearly. Bale and Berb were not made to stay. Please respond to what I say, not what you want to hear.
Yes we've been over this too, this was the whole point of the Mod example. You take a pessimistic view of the consequences, I don't past the first couple of weeks. We're going around in circles.
Not getting into the Eriksen thing, it was handled badly but it's not comparative to this situation as no one was desperate to take him when he had 3 years left. Again already said this.
I never said Levy handled it well once did I? I wasn't incorrect, or if I was, quote me please.
You're becoming hyperbolic and seem to be less interested in having a discussion as trying to win an argument. ' My goodness what dystopic future do you see '? Seriously? Please can we just stick to the facts of the discussion and what we've said? There's really no need for flowery bullshit that has nothing to do with what I've said.
When would you have sold Kane and for how much? What would it have done for us positively? Not saying you're definitely wrong (how can I on something that will never come to pass) but interested as to what you think was wrong with what I said (about the damage to the club) which you've not directly answered (not for the first time).
No one would've agreed with you on selling Kane and buying Haaland. Where you advocating signing him 2 or 3 years ago?
It's no longer a good discussion because we're going around in circles.
Okay. You go right back to completely ignoring what keeping an unhappy player can do to a club, which is the alternative.
The agreement is probably "for a fair fee". You saw that in the documentary with Eriksen. They aren't offering a fair fee. He is arguably the greatest striker in the world, definitely in the premier league. That costs. You can leave, but for this much. They haven't offered it. 100m, or cash plus one of a few players to the same value is wank. He's at least two Grealishes.
And don't down tools you fuck. Fucking around this season may well cost him the PL goals record in the long run.
I wouldn't have had him down as the type to behave like this. Especially as England captain. It's just a bad look and i think long-run he'll regret it coming to this.
If Levy really wants to be a cunt he could just keep him here suffering for a year and that would likely cost him the England captaincy.
Hopefully the link has worked. Go to page 16
The clause is rarely used because players are happy to get their wage even if they don’t play but it is there and can be used
I haven't argued that. Breach of Contract is not saying that his contract is null and void.
So sad but so so true. I am genuinely gobsmacked that he thought or he has been advised that this is the best way to go about it.
It feels it should have been so different with his connection to the club since young. Does he really not care about his reputation. I thought better of him.
So Levy told Kane I will sell you to any club for any price? Mate your a fucking ballroot.
Fines? They earn £200k+ a week. Not sure what good it does.
Reserves? Unhappy player in the club day in day out when we are trying to push on and change the team.
Get the money I say. I must say though I'm really disappointed, didn't think Kane would act up like this. He's being badly advised and it will hurt his brand in the long run.

Bearing in mind no official bid has ever been confirmed. At what point do YOU decide that City are taking the piss and that Harry needs to suck it up...... Pep was pleading poverty at the start of the window ("We don't pay 100m for strikers"); so how low do we go......?
90m... 80m.....70m..... Jesus and a bag of crisps?
......I've already seen someone here suggest Jesus + Ake on a straight swap in the name of "moving on", FFS!!!!
You know this how?
Can I have some examples of this? I can give you 2-3 off the top of my head where it simply didn't happen.
Who said any club for any price?
All your saying is "levy reneged on the agreement" so you clearly know what the agreement was/is/might of been? Enlighten me.
Houssem Aouar and Paul Pogba are two that immediately come to mind.
But we already have data Guids, 2-3 years of it. We have been shit with Harry so why not move him on and flesh out the squad? He's not the difference maker. He's a dependent striker with no real support/service behind him. His goals took us 7th (?) the last 2 years and numerous examples of no shows in big games. I'd take 100M in a second and actually get a young striker with some mobility.
This sounds like a good plan. What club are you talking about? Doesn't sound like our recruitment as I didn't see you mention "and get the cheaper, plan C player after all that window dressing".
Or, you know, ages another year. So a lot of big money going round these days in the transfer market for oft-injured 29 year olds then? He most certainly will be worth less next year. In fact, even he thinks so as he mentioned earlier in the summer. And any objective observer would concur that being further away on the right side of 30 makes a player more valuable all else being equal.
Appreciate your consideration of post length.
