Why because they both happen to be Italian?
Surely you're not basing it on just that fact alone?

Well no, I was informed by someone clued in on Serie A when I asked how Romano got away with being such a bullshit merchant about Kane and others in general.

Romano broke the recent Gil transfer too.


But I appreciate you assuming my reasoning was the laziest it could be. Cheers.

i mean i don't see a problem with what he's saying? this strikes me as the situation. we are waiting for kane to make a move.

the "no" refers to "no, kane to city isn't a done deal yet", which seems to me like it should be obvious by now.

Yeah. He's got that journo habit of beating around the bush but this tweet contains 3 rather concrete statements (bid, Tottenham want him to stay, and talks in next few days).

Obviously those of us that have been playing close attention knew this already, but for the wider world it's good info.
 
Txiki spent 3 weeks to draw up Carson's contract he had hardly left any time to deal with other incoming transfers.

We need to wait now until our targets finish their holiday.

We've been working on a one year deal for Carson for two months, lol. Kane and Grealish should be a piece of piss then. This is meant as a joke as well

Tbh Nmecha wouldn't be difficult to keep around if he'd wanted it. Club trained, homegrown, and on cheap wages.

I do suspect the club much preferred he took the option he did though.

For a year, and then nothing. It made sense to get something for him.

It's hilarious. He's at once an incredible negotiator and someone who keeps assets longer than they want, with no tangible success to show for it. If he was that good, he wouldn't have a 5th or 6th choice manager. Still, being compared to having blood in piss is funny.

Was going to say much the same last week. He's tough, but that's hardly the same as conniving, let alone smart.

They’ve got a Proper owner like we’ve got and they’ve got a real project like we had after the takeover. It’ll be Jacks choice of course, but it won’t be money related. Ambition is a strong seller, especially for someone that means as much to a club like Jack.

edit: consider wes edens the anti-glazers as far as American owners go.

Aston Villa and Milwaukee Bucks owner just won the NBA championship. Jack about to get an even better offer to stay.

Lol there aren't salary caps in Prem and the models are entirely different in how they operate. They can't treat and keep Grealish like they did with Giannis.
