[@brettervonkanada6102]

@@wukongsun6223 They're talking about 20 million for a player that's about to leave for free in 2-3 months. The reason Christian is annoyed is that Levy rejected 45 million from Inter trying to negotiate higher fee which is insane for (basically) a free agent, and espacially after having promised Eriksen he'd let him go, and then Inter was ready to pull out and after Eriksen's agent begged him to come back Levy was still trying to get extra money. So by this point in conversation Levy had already fked him over 2-3 times in that negotiation and Eriksen refused to meet with him without Jose being present. Eriksen cornered him with the crew and Jose to make him accept the deal on camera. That being said Levy is an exceptional businessman, there's no denying that, he's just prioritising money over the relationships within the team.

[@wukongsun6223]

@@brettervonkanada6102 I get all that but if I'm Levy, I'd be doing exactly that You try to get as much as you can for a player and as much usage out of that player He's got six months remaining so all power is quickly shifting to the player at this point and Levy knows that the best deal is now set at £20mill Also everything on camera isn't official.

Weird how the comments seem to imply that he left Spurs for United.

Spurs decided against it and now he is now a bit-par player at United. Still can't get a corner beyond the first man. Saw one of his last games for Spurs with crowd shouting that he can't get the corner past the first man. 4 years on Spurs thrash United, Eriksen 2 corners straight don't go past the first man. He would have not made us any better had he stayed or re-signed after Brentford was in decline a year or so before he left for Inter.
