Well no he’s saying city are hesitant to which is the opposite of happy toSo you're essentially saying that City are happy to splurge £100 mil on a player that the club believes is suffering from a permanently fucked knee. What level of derangement would that be?
But surely if the fitness situation is as bad as you say, Levy would have jumped at the chance to sell for 100 mil+.
Yeah, maybe, although If Kane gets Spurs into the Champions League with that dodgy ankle once in the next 3 seasons he'll make Levy more than £100m.
And if you think someone will pay up because they did eventually with Walker, would you lower the price or try to extract the maximum you could?
I'll be honest with you a lot of Daniel Levy's decisions don't make sense to me. I don't know why you'd refuse a fixed price on your stadium. I don't know why you'd make a stadium hundreds of millions more expensive to install an artificial pitch you get £10m a year from the NFL.I don't know why you'd decide the first building project you're going to supervise is a billion pound stadium!
I don't know why you'd fire Pochettino, or hire Mourinho, or sack Mourinho days before a cup final and appoint a 25 year old with no experience.
I don't know why you'd refuse to buy anyone when your squad was just on the edge of looking like winning a title for the first time in 50 years.

no they are not.Meh... I think Spurs are capable of being in the mix.
Us, Chelsea and Liverpool are above the league in talent.
ManU are thereabouts.
Leicester and Spurs are good enough to take a 3rd or 4th spot with a little luck.

No, he’s saying that someone at City told them they had a strong concern about Harry Kane’s knee, and that is why there’s a reluctance to spend that sort of moneySo you're essentially saying that City are happy to splurge £100 mil on a player that the club believes is suffering from a permanently fucked knee.

Small mind mentality. The real question for Spurs fans is why you cannot compete to win titles? If Kane stays it’s a hallow victory. This time next season you will still be in debt and uncompetitive while the blues will continue to win. It really doesn’t matter to us if Kane comes or not but for you it’s the realisation that you are a small club. No different to all the other jealous teams. Ask levy where the money is to invest? Still it’s better to blame the oil clubs.
His injuries are not even that bad tho….I think he had one season where he missed 6/7weeks other Haven been a lot less. Heck aguero was always injured and was a hell of a striker. If he could score even half what aguero did it would be great investmentI can't tell if you're deliberately bringing up a year old comment or not.
If you are, he came back better than I thought he would so far, to be fair to him, but I was correct about him losing his pace completely.
Still think it's an incredibly reckless thing to do, spending £160m+ on a 28 year old with a history of big injuries, but I'm not in charge and it's not my money. I was more stringently against it when Haaland was on the market, but that ship has sailed for this year anyway.
And I think we'll look at Haaland in 3 years time and be devastated he's scoring a goal a game for a decade wearing someone else's shirt.
But if Pep demands him, the club will get him, and for 2 years while Pep's here it'll probably be a good deal, until we're spending £200m on a new striker in 2024/25.
Reading reddit, it's interesting how annoyed other fans are we won't spend the money. I know it's not my money, but I enjoy not being hoodwinked these days and just telling clubs "no".
It's hilarious.
/r/soccer has convinced itself that we have unlimited money and zero FFP worries so to them, us haggling over £60m is like a billionaire not wanting to pay 10p for a shopping bag.
