Harry Kane

Don't agree with that.

Kane wanted to go yes.
We didn't want any City players in exchange, just the cash.
He may be unhappy now but he's professional and will get over it. No doubt he will have another great season, his consistency is there for all to see.
He will still be worth around 100 million next summer.

I will say from the outside, I don't understand why you didn't throw the kitchen sink at Spurs for Kane, and leave Grealish. You are stacked in those positions, Grealish is a quality player but he isn't in Kane's class either goals wise or assist wise. I was saying this before today on here as well so I'm not here to rub it in or anything. Maybe Grealish has more marketing appeal or something, but for footballing reasons it doesn't make sense. Grealish will probably have a decent season, maybe even a very good one, but he won't surpass Kane output wise and creating isn't your problem, it's more finishing.
Grealish is 4 years younger than Kane. But more importantly Pep likes attacking mids more than Strikers they are more important to him, It works for him, hence why we won the league last season without a striker up front. We would have liked Kane but not at any cost. Kane may win the golden boot this season but odds on it will be Grealish picking up winners medals in the next few seasons.
 
So why was it Kane that “led us a merry dance”. Surely it was Levy
Not really. Levy never once entered negotiations, the stance was always he's not for sale but kane was probably the one egging us on and giving us the encouragement.

I've said all along none of it sounded right. Everyone refused to acknowledge what was being put out by journalists via spurs.

I'm actually relieved he's not coming but it's all on him because he was the driving factor in all this and city acted in good faith

I agree that that's much more likely. But the truth is we don't even know that for sure. It may be that we put in an offer early, it was met with a deafening silence. We then put in a higher offer, and that in turn was met with a deafening silence. That's no kind of dance at all.
I actually find myself slightly wondering whether that marriage leaked rumour business didn't intensely annoy Levy. It's not impossible.
