Aren't they? Levy certainly used to be, but his thinking seems to have become very muddled. Not knowing when to cash in has cost us a fortune in recent years.

They are , they are just useless
I'm sure the idea appeals to him but he has shown nothing in the last 5 or more years that he still believes this to be the case.
He isn't dynamic enough to play football manager.
I'm guessing he would be closer to £90m, but I don't know his contract situation.
In terms of the younger strikers I see people talking about, I think a lot of them are a real shot in the dark. I have no idea if they are ready for the challenge.
Tottenham trouble as Harry Kane agent is in talks with several clubs
The agent of Harry Kane is currently in touch with several clubs regarding a move.The player has refused to commit his future to Spurs.
tothelaneandback.com
Last year's reporting of Kane is leaving.
I think striker will be the trickiest position to address if Kane leaves.
A lot of potentials- either way great or bust, mediocres or aging guys, I don't see a lot of ideal fits.
If we are dealing with the 3 domestic teams I would look at having a guy coming back, not because they are all great but I think they could at least do a decent job- Greenwood for me would be ideal and obviously better than just doing an ok job, I think if you could get him in a Kane deal you are looking great. Abraham, again not ideal and maybe not even a first choice guy but he can do a job. City- Jesus. I have criticized him a lot but there is talent there.
Maybe it is unrealistic to ask for them back but at least then you know you have something for the role and can still role the dice with some of the younger guys mentioned previously.
Edit:
And good to see you say 90m I was originally going to say 70m but thought that might me looked at as crazy high.
I think Greenwood is pie in the sky. I don't have my heart set on anyone in particular, but I want someone who is prepared to do a lot of hard running. They don't have to match Kane's stats.
Chelsea target reunion with Lukaku - but at £105m asking price
EXCLUSIVE BY MATT BARLOW: Inter may be forced to sell some of their star players but are desperate not to part with Lukaku, who has been prolific for the Serie A leaders this season.
Dunno how true that the figure is.

Identical story from one year ago.
That's the Daily Express and Calciomercato. Both total jokes. Nothing comparable to The Athletic and Sky Sports reporting it.Tottenham trouble as Harry Kane agent is in talks with several clubs

Greenwood is great but United probably value him for 50m plus. Abraham is a bit mediocre, he hasn't started much despite Werner's poor form. Jesus just isn't good enough, Pep has played no striker rather than playing him.
With the amount of kane i would go for:
Plea from Gladbach
Cunha from Berlin
Ben White
Le Normand from Sociedad
There are also plenty other positions where we need some players
Aarons or Lamptey for rightback
Second striker
I know the real world is not fifa
It's only a wish list maybe we can bring in some of these players

If Kane left then the young hyped talent (whoever it is we'd identify as a replacement) should be a pacey motherfucker. I love Kane to pieces but if there was one thing missing from his game it's speed. Buy a front line that will tear teams to shreds on the attack, it's a very very effective asset to have.

Transfers - Summer 2019 transfer thread
I fucking love this shit, it’s like Christmas, Birthday, and Easter wrapped up into 48 hours. Naaaaah, it's Christmas, Birthday, Easter, a root canal, and a colonoscopy wrapped up into 48 hours. :dierno:

Almost 2 years ago I put up this shortlist.
Alex Meret
Nikola Milenkovic
Milan Skriniar
Dayot Upamecano
Sandro Tonali
Sergej Milinkovic-Savic
Kai Havertz
Havertz has of course since joined Chelsea and Tonali spent a season at Milan.
But otherwise I'm still pretty firm with this list of players. They are at clubs where joining us could offer them significant pay rises perhaps with the exception of the Inter players.
Goalkeeper, defenders, midfielders though. We need a new spine to the team. When it was Toby, Jan, Dembele, Eriksen we were a different animal.
Maybe would add Pau Torres & Max Aarons to that list now.
If Kane jumps ship I still think the money would be better spent on these positions rather than spunking it all on a marquee signing to 'replace' Kane like Lukaku or something. (Bit like Lamela to Bale)
And lets keep well clear of players that have had 1-2 good seasons in Holland for fuck sake.

I know Greenwood is unlikely, but at the same time this is probably our best chance to use Kane leverage to get a guy like that.
I don’t love Abraham as a replacement but he is competent. He can play in the PL and offer something more than say Vinicius. If paired with a young guy with upside it gives us a base level in case the player isn’t ready. Ideally he is the 2nd choice guy.
I think Jesus has talent. For me he would be an option if you found it easier to pair with better players around him. There are so many talented wingers and attacking midfielders might be easier to get great players in those spots. I think he has potential for 15-20 goals for us if he comes here.
Hoping we find better options out there is very risky. Not sure a guy like Dana is better than any of them next year, and maybe not ever.
This wouldn't work. Over HG limits and not by 1 players but by a few.
We need to keep an eye for players like White, Ings and probably keep the likes of Davies and Doherty.
United fans love him because he's from the academy and their owners are coming under severe pressure for not respecting the club's traditions enough. No way do they sell him, and if they did it would be a total rip off.
It's fine; we can have the 22 players in that squad image, and then add Whiteman, Scarlett, and Cirkin to make a squad of 25.
This squad would be eligible for both Europa League, and PL.
