Because you know exactly what he is going to do?
Yet, they've won eff all. Hence why I said he should run an accountancy.
Trust me Levy doesn’t care we have won feck all, he and ENIC have won the fecking lottery.
So? We got the player and won another league. Who did he replace him with?You basically had to kidnap Berbarov.
People forget that he also negotiates players in as well and just look at Spur's record in the club. I'd say he get's absolutely bent over a barrel
It's amazing to me that he's happy to let this cash go for another year going nowhere. Most amazing thing is now Kane has the record, can't even say it's about him getting the record.
Levy 'so easy to negotiate with'!
I have heard it all now - this is peak redcafe.Your missing the point, he is making a fortune out of us, the clubs worth, his salary, he doesn’t care.
Yeah but u said he is easy to deal with, you had to tap, tap, tap then ambush his move to City, and pay a *fine*…. How is that easy to deal with?
Honestly, look at his transfers in mate. He has to negotiate those as wellLevy 'so easy to negotiate with'!
Very disappointing, but not surprising at all. Well, we can move on.
I worry that we may have a v v tough season if we don't get things done. Havertz may go to Arsenal and we're not even in the conversation for example. He would suit our squad and style, although I'm sure some would have reservations. I wouldn't, because I cannot see us making that 'marquee' signing with the way things are going.
But we need to get some players in. And get some players out!

In recent history, bought Carrick for nothing sold him for I think was a record fee, bought Bale, record fee supposedly not accepting a higher bid from you guys, bought Modric, higher fee blocking his move to a Chelsea. Don’t get me wrong he has no interest in winning he just wants to make money and he does that well. None of ENICs or his money is really in us anymore, it’s all in the name of the club…. If it goes South he has lost feck all.
Don't read the guardian, never did, especially when they had their racist chant at our badge. As for making an offer, Kane would have to be agreeable to a move to United. This has never been reported ever even by Davie's Auntie's Taxi driver. Now the conservation clearly changes if behind the scene he tells United he wants to come to us but clearly that hasn't happened. So why would you bid ? for paper talk?. Levy isn't selling so only Kane submitting a transfer request changes the narrative.
I hate to say it but I don’t think Kane is well informed or individually he isn’t very bright. The hole refusing to come to training last season etc was just a monumental mistake for him. I can’t speak for @balaks but I would have no issue with him asking for a transfer, but his actions last season were just wrong. I think he signed the extension to appease us fans, I’m actually quite interested to see what happens now. No doubt he has a massive loyalty bonus with us, and maybe that’s what his eye is on.
If you're speaking about just the final match of a cup itself, has he ever played for a team that wasn't the under-dog?
He's scored a lot of goals in every competition he's been involved. It seems a bit of harsh criticism to me and wouldn't mean I'd think United shouldn't be in for him at the right price.
i mean £100m is better than £0 for any club, it’s just especially so for Spurs when Kane is unlikely to be the difference between making top 4 or not. As I say, Levy only wins if Kane changes his mind and signs a new deal. Otherwise he’s essentially lost £100m for a year rental which most likely won’t get you into the CL anyway
I am bored - the state of this lot
Richarlson - 58
Udogie - 18m
Gil - 25
Royal - 25m
Sarr - 17m
Ndombele - 62m
Bergwijn - 30m
Lo Celso (£16m Loan Fee)
Rodon - 12m
Doherty - 16m
Lo Celso - 32m (48m combined)
Sanchez - 42m (in 2017! - over a barrel)
Llorente - 15m
Aurier - 25m (crumbs)
Foyth - 10m
Sissoko - 35m (good lord, Mike Ashley is a good negotiator)
Janssen - 22m
N'Jie - 14m (who?)
Lamela - 30m (physio kept busy)
Soldado - 30m (ultra marksman, Valencia chairman an ace negotiator)
Bentley - 22m
he probably read it in the Daily Mail
Your still missing the point man, he doesn’t give a shit. It’s easy in hindsight to criticise a bad signing, but most of those names mentioned were accepted well on their performance with thier club. They didn’t work out, hardly at the feet of Levy.

Hmmmmmm intelligent Harry Kane?
Hmmmmmm intelligent Harry Kane?
This is absolute genius from Kane. Gets Spurs to sign Maguire for £35m, moves to Man Utd on a free next season (demanding his 10% “arrangement” fee for helping move Maguire on). Win win.
Havertz would be an underwhelming signing. There is no need for a marquee signing. I'd be happier with us buying someone nobody's heard of that ETH feels will suit his system.
I was never convinced we'd get Kane this season. Even if they were open to letting him go (which looks unlikely) Spurs would rather sell him to a continental club.
100m for a 30 year old player whose contract is expiring in a year's time is just a brainless move and I'll be glad if United have identified alternative albeit less blockbuster targets.
Basically exactly this.
If Kane is planning to leave next summer, it makes zero sense for Spurs to not sell him. Trying to replace him with a 100M is a lot easier than trying to replace him with nada.
I can think of only 2 possibilities:
1) Levy genuinely believes he can get Kane to sign an extension
2) Levy will sell him eventually in this window. And these are just negotiating tactics to get as much as he can.
Players should be wary of joining Spurs as they clearly see themselves as an 'endgame club' but don't have the trophies or wages to back it up
Yes, block you.
So how does that make it easy to deal with him, when your aim is to sign their player, and thus can't?
Maguire at your club would actually be a brilliant upgrade.
Outside the scrutiny and pressure he gets here, you'd quickly find he's by far better than who you have already.
I never really disliked Maguire it was just his massive clangers every so often, his general performance level was solid.
So you would sacrifice getting an Onana/Maignan/Costa to sign him then because clearly we couldn't do both
that article includes the word 'Maguire' and the phrase 'move the ball quickly' in the same sentence
Nope this isn't a smokescreen sadly
Because he wants to sell.
Yeah why is there no interest in Thuram,he's free
I would most definitely sacrifice Mason Mount if the choice is paying more money for Kane.
Yeah now that is a different matter
i mean, that depends on what you think our budget is? If it is, say, £150 million, and we are hoping to recoup, say £50 million through the sales of Maguire, McTominay and Martial (maybe more of them too), then we should be able to get both and a midfielder too. I've seen people expressing relief and admiration that we have pulled out of trying to sign Kane so early, but my concern is that it could be more a sign of us having a tiny budget than any kind of sensible, long term approach to our transfer dealings. Also, everyone in the fecking world knew that Levy would be asking for a ridiculous amount of money, why does it seem to have come as a surprise to us?!
Does he now?
I disagree, Kane is World-Class and will improve (bar maybe Man City) any Club team in the world. Look at the performances of Benzema, Ibra, CR7, Messi etc at 31. RVP joined Utd at 29.
Maybe if Erik wasn't so hung up on Mount then we could afford Kane AND top GK
