In Levy's open letter to the fans, the day Harry was appointed manager, he said that Berba wanted to be transfered to Man U from the season before, and it was clear for all to see that his attitude on the pitch was of someone not interested in playing. Also in the original statement. Levy mentioned a clause in the FIFA regulations concerning players signed before their 28th birthday being able to transfer after 3 years to another club with the fee being set by arbitration from a third party. I agree that Berba should have been sold, and there was no point in keeping him at the club, and I also agree we should cash the chip before its value plundered. The mistake was that as Levy & Co knew Berba would be gone at the summer window, a replacement should have been saught and taken way before they actually attained the services of Pavlyachenko. All the talent was gone by the time Spurs moved to buy and I'm surprised that Comolli does not warrant mention. Harry Kedknapp is a great aquisition but from the players' attitude, I don't think that Harry is responsible for all the praise. Rather I feel, it was the players' unwillingness to play for their manager that caused the poor start to the season and the demise of Jaunde Ramos.

Man Utd are going to be challenging for the league, and the Champions League (where Spurs have never been), whilst Spurs are struggling to stay in the top division. These are just more ridiculous comments by Levy. Berbatov told Jol he wanted to leave! How exactly are Spurs and Man Utd rivals?

Especially to United. That, in my view would give some credence to the suggestion that it was Ramos's decision to let an obviously unhappy player go. When you sell a player like Berbatov, especially to you rivals you're duty bound in my view to get the absolute maxim in transfer fees and I think Levy was right to do so. Sometimes it's easy to forget that ultimately, the club is bigger than any player. I seem to recall reports saying that Levy would hapily let Berbatov rot in the reserves than let him go. Especially to United. That, in my view would give some credence to the suggestion that it was Ramos’s decision to let an obviously unhappy player go. When you sell a player like Berbatov, especially to you rivals you’re duty bound in my view to get the absolute maxim in transfer fees and I think Levy was right to do so.
