it’s incompetence because our management listen to the wrong people.
We can all want a Big Mac meal but even if you are an employee there if the owner doesn’t open the door, you can’t get one no matter how much a staff member wants to sell you one.

city’s took levy’s silence as a negotiating tactic. Kane’s brother kept telling them it would get done.

we didn’t walk, we were completely ignored.

They were talking to the help and not the decision maker.
All the experts are here now. Not sure how the club have managed the last 12 years without a blue moon team of experts advising how to run a football club.
 
If you believe that we weren’t in negotiations at all for Kane then you must be even more stupid than your Big Mac analogy. We wanted a player, he wanted to come, we bid, it wasn’t enough, we rebid what was our final offer and it wasn’t enough, we walked. Such is business. Levy and City both had a figure in mind and it appears Spurs weren’t budging. On to the next one….
Literally all the London sources have continuously confirmed Levy wasn’t negotiating. It’s well known at this point. Even today the brief is city never knew a figure because Levy never answered requests for one.

we’ve some bloody blinkered fans who are annoyed we couldn’t bully Spurs with a blank chequebook.

Here’s the crux of it to break it down because genuinely some people can’t see it.

The Kane’s told city they could get him for for circa 120 mil. Gentleman’s agreement with Levy.

city offered 2-3 amounts depending on who you believe ranging from 75 mil to 150 mil.

Levy ignored all approaches.

The only contact we seem to have had was with Kane’s people who have handled this absolutely woefully.
 
I am completely happy with the way City handle transfers, we only pay what we are willing to pay, and don’t offer huge fees or wages to get the deal done. If Kane really wanted to move to us he would have made it happen.

What if the Big Mac wasn't going to do you any good. Or by keeping the Big Mac it meant turning down good money which you'd never get again. Then who is incompetent? You've got time to reply, I'm off to McDonalds.

hey I don’t think Levy’s done the smart thing here, but he’s gone and done it either way and you have to respect him for it.
 
I'm disappointed because I came to believe that Kane would have been the finishing touch to a team that is capable of dominating for some years to come. There appears to be no credible alternative available at the moment, but this appears to have been the opinion of those at the club right from the start so that's hardly a blow. If the club does have an alternative in mind that's good because I trust the club. What I can't stand are those sour faced moaners who throw a tantrum and dismiss the entire summer as a "shitshow" and demand that heads roll at the club. That is the reaction of spoilt brats who should hang out somewhere more to their taste, like the entitled pages of redcafe or RAWK. It may just be that the squad we have is actually better than one with A N Other thrown in as a "striker" just to keep the moaners happy. And I'd like to add my thanks to those already expressed for Tolmie, but also Billy, who have both shared with us what they've heard. I stress "what they've heard" because they aren't actually responsible for any part of the actual negotiations and certainly not for their failure. If anyone can claim that honour it appears to be Mr Levy but it appears that the devil was really in the detail. Tolmie and Billy simply reported information passed on to them in an evolving situation. So, I'm disappointed but our club has improved, is improving and will improve even more. Pep & Co will see to that.

Good god.
 
Sorry what the fuck is this list supposed to be?

De Bruyne. Grealish. Gundogan. Bernardo Silva. Sterling. Foden. Mahrez. Jesus. Torres.

Name me a side with a better front 5 and you're a liar.

Your whining about us not having goalscorers, lets have a look at the list of top scoring sides in the league for the past 4 years.

2020/21 Manchester City.
2019/20 Manchester City.
2018/19 Manchester City.
2017/18 Manchester City.
I really wouldn't waste your breathe dom, some of them aren't even very good at wumming
 
Just been reading sky sports news and it appears we have a new young striker coming through the ranks.

”Pep Guardiola will give young strikers Liam Delap and Cole Palmer more chances to play now the Kane deal is off”

Does anyone anything about this young striker Palmer? He sounds exciting

Could be getting mixed up with Roger Palmer but I think he might have moved on a bit ago
 
A happy ending to the Kane saga, the boring one stays in London and the greedy one got nil zip zero nada. Hate fake Ronaldo by default, but you can't deny the piss boiling factor, so bath him and bring him here just for the laugh, Imagine if we gets PSG in CL, it would be the most hyped tie in the history of CL.
