Although I can't be sure, I got the feeling that there were plenty of people who felt the same way.
If Man City are really trying to sign Kane and Grealish with their neighbours seemingly set to spend over £100 million themselves this summer at a time when so many other clubs have barely survived the last eighteen months, then the Manchester clubs' version of the game is one that I just can't be bothered with. When you consider Man City's complete lack of success in the Champions League, both Manchester clubs have had a terrible return for all of that money they've spent under their current managers.
As for Kane, if any current England player comes close to meriting their transfer valuation, then I'd say it's him because he added a dimension to his game that I for one didn't think he possessed last season, but, even so, £160 million just seems ridiculous for a football player.
