Berahino was told he could go, the club changed their mind and that is why we have a pi**ed off player. I agree with you, we were right to turn down the offer, but Peace went back on what he had promised. I can assure you of that.
Sorry but you are missing my point. Being told by Peace that "he could go" was not and never could have been unconditional. Minimum conditions had to be met otherwise he could have gone to a club of his choice for a quid. That clearly was never said or inferred. What would have been said was "you can go provided that we get an acceptable offer". The big question is whether that the conditions were clearly stated and understood. It appears that they weren't, just like Odemwingie not grasping that being sold to QPR was conditional on us getting Hoilett from QPR, who then refused to come, so the deal was off. A coincidental misunderstanding? Agents and players not listening properly? Peace being deliberately vague?
It's very hard to conclude that the club reneged on any deal with Berahino. Unless the asking price AND terms of payment were met, and I think this is the crux of it, then the club didn't renege.
I think the issue was that Spurs did offer £23m, which was an acceptable price, and so Berahino might have thought he was entitled to go. But Levy making that offer far too late on the day for us to get a replacement, and not offering anywhere near enough cash to buy a replacement even if we had time to sign one, were conditions which the club found unacceptable, so no deal. That is why Berahino feels that the club reneged, and that is why the club felt that it didn't receive an acceptable offer, hence the fallout.
I heard all this from very high up within Tottenham, from somebody totally fed up once again with Levy's pathetic attempts to avoid paying anything substantial upfront.
