Jack Grealish

[leo_city]

Cheers big ears.....

Bit soon to revisit the wounds no?

 

[JOGAMIGMOG]

What shirt number for Super Jack? Reckon it’ll eclipse Foden and KDB in sales.

 

[moggymoz]

He's got a mouth like a broken zip.

I prefer camel gob myself.

 

[kaz7]

How is he getting the first team up to speed if he doesn't play them in friendlies?

he .will.be.here.one.day.at.best. There is plenty of time

 

[Manx Blue]

We laughed at Pogba fee now because he has been poor at the scum winning nowt zip fuck all in the last four years a tinpot indebted club! Now if they had won the league or the champs league it’s money well spent! Just like if we spend 230m on Kane and Grealish we win the league this season it’s money well and truly spent well!

That's pretty much how the press justified Chelsea's spending last summer after their CL win

Mattyb reckons 19.

Resident ITK said he's taking 19.

medical tomorrow, that means media stuff tonight right?

Signing tomorrow or Friday, being presented to the fans on Monday.

 

[BlueTG]

But we always laugh at those prices though. So I don’t get why this price can’t be questioned. Or are we going to wake up tomorrow and start calling Maguire a bargain or fair price?

I agree.

Don’t particularly care what we spend as it’s not my money, however it’s obscene and we’ve pissed our pants at other club’s fees for less than world class players.

Obscene sums for a big fish out of the small pond, hope he lives up to it.

 

[Mid Wales blue]

If we were signing Zaha we could of said The Eagle Has Landed ....

So when Kane lands, will it be the cock is coming!

 

[hammocity]

TFFT

Stops him signing here

2nd Tier signing, not for us at this time, would have bitten your hand off 15 years ago.

 

[wolviedinho]

Apparently peps only signed him to take penalties

Welcome our new Manager: Pepgarethiola ;)

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Yea pprune is a joke at times !!!

Yes, I stopped going there for “discussions” years ago. But, I’m talking about a private one at my airline.

 

[Manx Blue]

But Villa has plundered the even smaller pond of Brentford in recent times. We were plundered in years gone by, and will be in the future. It's part of football.

No , we're gonna wake up tomorrow, look at the Maguire price and realise that we have actually got a bargain

 

[PragueBlue]

If we get Grealish at that price, I'd say it is fair value. Not a bargain, not overpriced.

Villa captain
Long contract
English darling
Technically superb
Creative output excellent
Commercial appeal high

All things considered we paid the going rate as of 2021. The clause would not have existed if JG was not all of the above.

Otherwise, we should have continued to buy unproven potential. The club needed to fill 2 key roles this summer. Sergio out and silva was never replaced.

City have sold a lot of players to minimise the risk imo.

 

[crazyg]

He always makes me think of Plug from the Bash St. Kids.

Wio


plug

being presented as in the stadium or what? thought he could be available for saturday ngl

…the fees match that of 30+ years ago taking inflation into account

Which fees from 30yrs ago equate to £100M today?



That would mean TODAY’S record, based on Andy Gray’s record fee of £1,500,000 in 1981 would be about £6.5M.

Are you talking about some other kind of inflation, maybe in another country?!
