That's the cunt that came up with "Daniel Levy, the Jew"...
FBI might have the phones tapped.
People of that generation are more into the face-to-face meetings. They are the buggers that want everyone back in the office.
Imagine they also need to figure out the future of the club if it is put up for sale.
No, that was a parody of this account.
Out of that lot it's probably only GLC or Perisic that might play against Brentford, so I don't see the issue.
Erm... because you're not going to be doing something ilegal?
Like I said they don't want to be here that's the issue. I want to see players on the pitch who want to play for the club.
Good, don’t want any of them involved either
True. We giving up all commercial revenue from it?
Food and drinks etc ? Broadcast rights?
And like I said those players might not even be playing vs Brentford.
Bayern don't hold much power in this deal because in 12 months Kane is essentially a free agent who can sign for whoever he wants so they are risking not getting him by acting stubborn. Of course if he signs for them then they will be laughing and we will look like mugs but at this stage no-one knows the future hence why they are going all out and willing to break their club record transfer on him despite being able to sign him for a pre contract in 6 months.
Actually our best interests are from both sides, if we keep him we get another year of Kane and we can legit challenge for top 4 and essentially kick the can down the road for another season, if we sell we get €100-120m to spend on upgrading the team...you can look at it both ways - it just depends on whether you're glass half empty of glass half full.
Everyone has a go at Levy for stringing deals along and leaving this to the last minute but in this case it's absolutely justified, this is probably the most important transfer we've had to deal with since Bale and our best player we've had in the PL era, whatever happens in this deal will immediately setup the future of the club from a good or bad perspective so I understand him trying to squeeze as much out of this as he can.
On replacing him, well we will lose out regardless and replacing Kane was never going to be easy but we have taken steps towards that signing the Argie kid and being linked to Orban and Teremi, no matter what happens we were never going to replace Kane like for like regardless, we already have our Kane replacement in Rich anyway and he will most probably be our starting striker come this season so it's not as if the managers plans are being disrupted in that sense.
For the record I think a deal will be done and all this is just merely posturing as an act to make it look like we won't be bullied, Bayern can fuck off with their deadline, if they really want him they can wait, it's the least they can do after acting like arseholes all Summer.
As you said GLC and or Perisic might play, even PEH might play or be on the bench. There is clearly an issue there.
Completely.
Think that was the fake one: https://twitter.com/iMiaSamMia
This is the real one: https://twitter.com/iMiaSanMia/
Where you get the idea that GLC doesn’t want to be here?
Well you can blame the mananger if he plays them. We can put out a decent team without any of those players in it. And even if we had already sold any of the players that you mentioned, there's nothing to say they'd have been replaced by now.
The idea came from him being on loan for 18 months with Villareal.
Ah welcome back mate
