I'm glad they tried anyway! I won't knock them for that

I wouldn't be surprised if this was a smokescreen and Jamie Bynoe-Gittens ends up with us to be fair. Quote me, bookmark me, fuck you etc etc etc. We need English players more than ever and a pure LW option more than a jack of all trades master of some.
The whole Tel story is far too public for how we operate.

He didn't reject us.
Bayern didn't want to sell then (they'd only just bought him!).... Now they're open to an exit.... Why should we not resurrect our interest? .........Just shows that we still think he's worth pursuing.
Levy has been bashed for not showing enough ambitions by not going after top-players/prospects but when he shows ambitions, and initiates negotiations with players like Muani & Tel, he get bashed for that too (for being over-ambitious) 
Those top journalists aren’t necessarily getting newer information, they just aren’t getting paid by clubs and agents to put out a certain volume of posts and follow specific editorial lines.
They are 24hr news funded by adverts and follow their own formula for gaining viewers.
Same game, different players.
Ultimately only one club has actually done a deal with Bayern. When Liverpool hijacked us on Diaz they didn’t fuck about. When we hijcaked Dragusin and Bergvall those deals were done between the clubs overnight.
It’s felt like journalists are miles behind the curve on this one too. Wait till he’s pictured in training today for Bayern and people lose their shit further! That’s what usually happens!
I suspect we could on a straight loan.

Course brah - the hatred of levy is stronger than reason, it is stronger than anything. If Hatred for Levy were an Avenger Thanos would never have even bothered.
Being reported from multiple sources that a fee has been agreed?
Why not?
Sky are massive cunts.... Go in with both feet and studs up next time.
Announce Allan Saint-Maximin !
The issue is he has let the clubs stock drop so low that no top player would want to join us.Levy has been bashed for not showing enough ambitions by not going after top-players/prospects but when he shows ambitions, and initiates negotiations with players like Muani & Tel, he get bashed for that too (for being over-ambitious)
When we were CL runners up that was the time to push on and get momentum. Instead we did feck all. And now here we are.
I assume the opposite....... If it's loan only it'll be United.
It was Bayern and not Tel who rejected a bid from Spurs, when Spurs tried to include Tel in the Kane deal.
Bayern had bought Tel in 2022, when he was only 17, and Bayern naturally wanted to keep him. And Tel wanted to prove himself at Bayern (still then).
This is a total non-issue for me.
Ah yeah there is always that one. We could even see the "Tel named on the bench" panic this weekend as well.
But usually when the clubs agree a fee, the player pauses all activity with the club.
Interestingly, for me at least and because I have a pretty chilled out day today, I had a quick look to see who Tel's agent is. It's a French guy called Camara who seems to be a one man band called "Clever One" agency. Tel is by far his biggest player.
Wonder if that means Tel is the one calling the shots or it's more likely his agent his is doing his very best to rinse every last drop of wages out of Spusr because this is his biggest commission earner...
That makes a lot more sense and if that is the case then Tel himself didn't reject us in 2023.
Yeah, VDV, Romero, Porro, Maddison, Bergvall, Gray, Vicario, Kinsky, Kulusevski - none of them wanted to join....
ummmm wait.
None of them were high profile signings bar maybe Romero, Porro and Madisson. Romero joined a while back. Could we convince a player of his calibre right now? I doubt it.

Napoli maybe moved on from Garnacho...
He was linked with us 18 months ago as part of the Kane deal.So come on.....who had heard of this Tel fellow before this week?
