Jack Grealish

Although, if you want a laugh go on Villatalk forum, fcuk me they despise us

Used to work in Worcester. Loads of Villa fans. Cunts to a man. Horrible, small-time fanbase.

Grealish would have to want to stay to sign a new contract plus if there was a gentleman’s agreement now they are reneging on that agreement why sign a new contract?

 

[herrock]

Love Bernardo, his work is phenomenal, but if he wants out grealish is a fantastic replacement

 

[mattcity5]

One of the very best sources for Manchester, albeit more United.

He went big the other month after a brief for his agents and it sounds like we are almost there.

Be a great signing.

I did wonder when Villa signed Buendia if that was a case of getting in the replacement first. Could well be the case and fingers crossed this is all happening.

I actually think he's the better player as well but sadly looks like he's set on going.

And proven it over a longer period, we know he can play the City way.

True but on the other hand - he’s only won what he has because City are so good

He also won the league at Monaco, the season they won it nobody fancied them.

 

[Roy Munson]

Terrible bit of business if true.

He's not good enough for us, we don't need him, and that price is extortionate.

Respectfully, that's bollocks mate. He'll be brilliant for us.

Why do you care what the price is?

Bit of a contradiction in that post. Bernardo is at City and playing nearly every week because he's good enough to be in this squad/team. I don't want us to lose Bernardo unless he wants to go then we obviously need to look for a replacement, But we will 100% miss Bernardo Silva, His intensity and pressing and his capabilities to keep possession of the ball when we are ahead in games on top of being an unbelievable footballer.
Numerous games throughout the last few seasons he has been the one taking games by the scruff of the neck and showing the way especially when KDB was out that's when Bernardo showed huge balls dictating games. That game against Liverpool at home was one of the best individual displays I have ever seen live. Bernardo has contributed hugely to us being successful along with the players around him.

They also have this idea in their heads that they are on the verge of becoming a top 6 club. Potentially top 4. And our rivals.

No idea where that has come from. They are not even close to cracking the top 6. Let alone the top 4.

Never had a problem with villa till they smashed up the north stand, and then I actually met some, fucking never met a villian who wasn't a cock end

 

[Homar]

Excellent signing if true, and I’m inclined to believe that it is true. A genuinely exciting player that will add some much needed pace to the team. With regards to the price, I wouldn’t be surprised if that is true either. I suspected that he has an agreement with Villa, and that we’d need to pay that figure. I don’t mind the club paying that bit extra for the very best players. It’s what we’ve been needing.

Anyone that had the pleasure of their company at Wembley last season can confirm that. Gobby fuckers, harping on about a game 40 years ago. Chalk and cheese, comparing them to the Watford fans the season before.

 

[I'm Blue]

£100m?
Not a fan but understand this one more than Jimmy Hills love child, age and potential and longevity, replacing Bernardo, like most transfers slightly risky though, bigger the fee the bigger the risk.
That fee though, we must have had a win on a scratch card.

 

[oakiecokie]

How are Villa opening contract talks when he is off with England. Fact is this is a brief and it wouldn't come out unless it more or less done.

The club have to try and appease the fans by making out they`re doing all they can to keep him, whilst in reality it could be that we are nearly there with the lad.

 

[ancoats]

he's never a £100milion player in my book and not the sort of player city need also we have better already

 

[TheThirdDeano]

You really have to congratulate the British media for once again showing their power to destory

 

[oakiecokie]

Mahrez was a more noted goalscorer, having been arguably the most valuable player in a team that managed to win a title. He's also more a winger who generally stays on the wing.

Jack Grealish........ has basically had two good seasons in the Prem, for a team that finished 17th and 11th. He also often picks the ball up deep and in central positions, holding onto it for a lifetime. Something that will never, ever wash in a team coached by Guardiola, and filled with the likes of De Bruyne, Foden, Bernardo, Gundogan, Fernandinho, etc, etc. Players who are better than he is, basically.

Bernie wont be here though, if we are to believe reports.

 

[Damanino]

If price is 100m it only means we had to negotiate it down from what, from 120m?

I doubt we go to Villa ok here is 100m take it or leave it. we probably start with something like 70m which is already a club record for City so not a small amount. Villa could have said 120 and then we meet in the middle around 100ish.

but for that money I want a proven world class player (or potential for it) not Grealish...

I hope this wont turn out us selling him to Everton 2 years time for 30m...

 

[Mayor West]

I have absolutely nothing against Bernardo at all, he has been good for us, but Grealish is better, he is more of a threat, more dangerous player all round.

 

[oakiecokie]

Let's hope so. Brummie prima donna wanker is a signing the Rags should be making for exorbitant money, not us.

I`ll let the powers that be in the corridors of The Etihad to make that decision and thankfully not you.

 

[nmc]

That English player tax is mental, there's no way Bernardo will go for £100m. Considering what he's won compared to Grealish...

There doesn't seem to be an equivalent of a Spanish or German Player tax when Bayern or Real make signings in their respective leagues... makes you wonder where this English Player tax comes from ?
