It's just negotiation. It's pretty clear Levy would have a desire to sell for anything more than a bag of crisps but he obviously doesn't want to give off that impression. He'll just be trying to get a bit more out of them. Conte has a tendency to throw his toys out the pram when he doesn't secure his transfer targets too.
Plus I was just mentioning that this situation might become more prevalent in the future so I guess it is necessary to remain strong even in the last window that the club can get anything for him.

I just want him gone tbh as he doesn’t want to be here and we really should be playing players who want to fight for an actual future here and it’s not like his performing anywhere near like he can (and his corners are still inexplicably shit).

This is genuinely trending towards deal breaker with Mourinho for me, Eriksen should not be playing considering his situation. Not only has Eriksen been mugging off the club off the by dragging out this transfer since 5 days after the UCL Final, he's been absolutely appalling. Brings no value whatsoever at the moment. You'd think even if he wasn't trying hard he might accidentally manage to do something decent every so often.

It's an absolute disgrace to the shirt for him to keep playing, imagine if you're one of the players he's getting picked over. If I was Oliver Skipp I would be on the phone to my agent immediately. It's not fair or meritocratic to let Eriksen keep playing. I refuse to believe it's possible to build a winning culture with this going on.

JM said something like "...he's been helping us out" and "I'm not stupid, of course I know he hasn't been playing well"

Given:
TN - injured
GLC - JM he has been taking time to adjust but getting there
EL - just back from injury
MS - injured
HW - in and out with suspension and injury
ED - finding his way back after a long time out.

He has not been the CE of old but he is fit and available. Aside from kids he is literally the only midfielder we have been able to put out every week. It's no wonder he plays every game.

Would have loved him to get on the score sheet, but alas wasn't to be.

He was better than Saturday, but I hope we get this move sorted now.

Gedson, Piatek & Bruno in with Eriksen out would be a great window. Loan KWP, Foyth & Clarke and try to find takers for Wanyama and Rose.

Amazing how badly this saga has turned out for everyone involved (other than Inter obviously).

Eriksen didn't get the massive wage or elite club.
We got 18 months of poor performances and barely any compensation.

Shame it ended like this if he goes asap.
