Before he started this bullshit no, but now he’s tainted for goodWould anyone object to him leaving if we were offered the amount we wanted?

In the reports that I read yesterday, Guardiola had been extremely careful not to go beyond the strict legalities, which were consistent with your quotes above. Effectively, he'd said that HK was a superb player, and that City would, of course, be interested in buying him. However, as he was under contract to Spurs and Spurs would not negotiate, it was time to move on. Predictably, it seems as though today's newspapers have tarted up the stories for maximum impact. (I still think he's an arrogant shit though.)Just to show how much of a fucking prick and hypocrite Guardiola is, this is what he says about Silva and his own players that want to leave.
“He's our player. Not just Bernardo, there are two, three or four players that want to leave but they are our players under contract and when they bring some offer and their agents come here and they want to leave we are open to discuss absolutely everything but it depends on them," Guardiola said.Otherwise, they will continue training really well, they will stay here and I will decide if they stay or don't stay.”
So, it’s ok for him to talk about our player and say we have to come to the table to negotiate to sell a player we don’t want to leave, but when the shoe is on the other foot, it’s all up to him. He really is a spoilt little shit, isn’t he?
So basically he’s got an ego and thinks he can do what the fuck he wants! Not the actions of a professional club captain!I think some are missing the point here. He didn't ask for an extra week, he just told us he was taking it. When he was told no EVERYONE else would back on time he just took it anyway. Pre season is essential to get up to speed for the new season and more so when you have a new man in charge. It's incredibly selfish and unprofessional and an "I told them so it's fine" attitude just doesn't cut it.
Don’t forget, end of this season Haaland’s €75m release clause is activated. There’s a lot of young players who could rise in the coming 12 months like Watkins (Villa), Scarlett (Spurs) Abrahams (Chavscum) Saka (Arsescum), Hoppe (Schalke), Moukoko (Dortmund). At least half those lads could potentially be better than Kane, particularly Moukoko.
This was Kane’s chance to move off the back of a big scoring season and Euros. He just handled it badly and now it looks like the chance has gone. He might well have to stay with us for the next 2/3 years. He needs to knuckle down.

If we were in the transfer market trying to sign Kane we'd all be saying it would be impossible to get a player of his quality at spurs. Suck it up that he wanted to leave due to our lack of ambition and shambles of a leadership over the last 3 years or so and hope we do better from here onwardsListen, i am as angry as the next man but there is not a chance that atleast half those lads could be better than Kane.
I don’t believe that for a second. They were trying to maximise the value of the dealMaybe relevant for Kane and City. Villa actively tried to sell Grealish to other clubs rather than City for fear they are distorting the competitiveness of the PL. According to Ornstein they’re not alone in taking this perspective
He has essentially called out us - the supporters - I don’t know how he comes back from that. I’ve lost all respect for him, the only thing that makes me want him to stay is that there is no clear alternative out there. If we could guarantee right now we could sign a semi decent striker I’d happily drive him to the etihad so he can as some have eloquently put it - lose his virginity to a prostitute.
It does make you wonder if he’s had his own way a little too often. Case in point the free kick situation. He’s scored ONE free kick in his time at Spurs. ONE. And that took a massive deflection. Yet he takes every single one. There’s also reports that he reported a few days late for training last preseason too.
There‘s lots of little things that we have all excused over the years because he’s so good, but looking back on them now sheds a different light on the “ultimate professiona.”

What time is training?

I’d imagine the players have been briefed to be very careful with social media over this.Would the club instruct the players not to respond or would it be left to them individually to decide?
