Tokiu atveju, mano nuomone, daug balanso būtų. Tarkim konferencijų lygoje vienas galėtų žaist, kitas ilsėtis, o kitą savaitę atvirkščiai. Ir daug geriau nei koks Vinicius ar Janssenas sėdintis ant suolo. Tiesa, Llorentes transferas buvo geras, reikia pripažint, bet kažin ar dar kartą pavyks Tottenhamui taip pataikyt į aukso viduriuką.

Kane had already told Nuno on Wednesday morning that he would stay, finally drawing a line under an interminable saga.

But the basic facts of the saga are as follows:

Levy was furious with the way that Kane had tried to bounce him into the move at the end of last season

Manchester City offered five players in May and £75m plus £25m in June, and made no further bids

City were prepared to pay a fixed £100m plus £20-or-so million in add-ons but Levy refused to negotiate

Spurs fined Kane two weeks’ wages for delaying his return to training

With City and Spurs not talking since late July the move had been dead for weeks despite Kane’s hopes

Part of Levy’s position was coldly rational. He knew that this would be a bad market in which to sell a top player, and that Tottenham would always be better off keeping Kane for at least one more year. By the end of next season Tottenham would either have improved their situation enough to convince Kane to stay long-term, or they could sell him in a more buoyant market for at least as much as they were offered in 2021. The fact that City’s only cash bid for Kane was £75million up front with another £25m of add-ons has effectively proven Levy right. There was nothing to be gained from selling this summer.

The other part of Levy’s insistence on keeping Kane was personal. Levy felt deeply affronted by the conduct of Kane and his family throughout this process, from the leaking of Kane’s desire to leave and the Neville interview right at the climax of Spurs’ season, through to Kane’s unauthorised absence from pre-season training at the start of this month (which cost Kane two weeks’ wages.) Levy saw this as a challenge to his authority, which made him even more keen not to get pushed around. Maybe with a more delicate approach Kane might have succeeded, but Levy was insistent from early on he would not be giving in.

On Monday 9 August, Paratici held a three-hour meeting with Kane, during which Kane repeatedly reiterated his own desire to leave, and Paratici made clear the club would not be selling.

No one from the City hierarchy discussed the signing of Kane with Spurs when they were at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium that Sunday afternoon. Levy’s stonewall tactics, refusing to even negotiate with City or pick up the phone, appeared to have worked.

Even though plenty of junior staff at City believed that Kane was on his way to the club, the reality was that it was never truly on the cards.

Baisu pagalvot kol kas.

Tanguy Ndombele has told Tottenham chiefs he wants to quit the club by the end of the window, Football Insider can reveal.

• Kane situacija jau atrodo kaip coinflipas, linkstantis į Spurs pusę. Dar prieš dvi savaites galėjau statyt pinigus, kad jis išvyks, dabar jau nebeaišku. Pasak gandų, jokio naujo bido nebuvo, Levy tvirtai laikosi savo pozicijos, o vakarykštė simbolinė pergalė leis tos pozicijos laikytis dar komfortiškiau. Kane atseit nepraleidinės treniruočių (xi xi) ir bandys grįžti ant mačo vs Wolves

• Ryšium su Kane situacija, niekas neaišku ir dėl Vlahovič/Lautaro/kitų. Ko natūralu tikėtis, tai kylančių kainų grandinėlės: kuo vėliau Kane bus parduotas, tuo didesnis bus Vlahovič ir co antkainis, tuo daugiau Levy prašys iš City. Kas neramina, tai Atletico susidomėjimas Vlahovič ir ganduose kylanti jo kaina. 60mln EUR jau, atrodo, nebeužteks, o čia kalbam apie 21m puolėją iš Italijos su vienu geru sezonu. Tokio transfero rizika jau labai didelė

• Tomiyasu situacija turėtų priklausyti nuo Tanganga. O Sanchez-Dier paserviravo klasikinį gerą low-block performansą ir nebestatyčiau pinigų, kad Davinson bus parduotas.

• Ant prekystalio vis dar sėdi Aurier, Winks, Sissoko. Ne ant prekystalio, bet kaip specialus offeris turbūt sėdi Ndombele. Nenustebčiau, jei geros nuomos ieškomos Rodon/Sessegnon/Clarke. Nuno atrodo patenkintas Bergwijn pasirodymais ir olandas turėtų likti.
