Yes and no. I guess your implication is that Levy should've sold him back then rather than risk losing him for free now, but the other side of the coin is that if we had sold him then we may have missed out on top 4/CL qualification and we probably wouldn't have got to the CL final, so the cost of those things may have been greater than the cost of not getting a transfer fee for him.
Also can you imagine the meltdown on here if we'd sold Eriksen? "I thought we weren't a selling club any more, nothing has change" etc. etc. It's a bit of a no-win situation for Levy to be honest.
Exactly. I don't mind that we didn't sell him, we quite possibly would not have gained Champions League football again without him.
But to say there was nothing the club could have done about situation now is totally disingenuous, as clearly we could have accepted one of the offers that were made for him last summer, but chose not to.
