Yep and he's not for sale. Giannis Antetokounmpo signed largest contract in NBA history to stay at Milwaukee Bucks. Co-owner of Bucks is one half of Villa ownership. 100 million figure is meaningless to Villa owners relative to holding onto best players

Shame this user won't be back.
 
Let's give a big Manc welcome to Jack Grealish with a dedicated song ahead of the alleged/proposed debut on Saturday against Leicester at Wembley.

Starter for 10...

To The Tune Of 'Black Betty' By Ram Jam​

Whoa Jack Grealish - Bam-la-lam

Whoa Jack Grealish - Bam-la-lam

You left Birm-ing-ham - Bam-la-lam

For a real posh Northern Villa - Bam-la-lam

You had a view - Bam-la-lam

To play in Sky Blue -Bam-la-lam

You're our poster boy - Bam-la-lam

You're Pep's love child - Bam-la-lam

Whoa Jack Grealish -Bam-la-lam

Whoa Jack Grealish - Bam-la-lam

As I say, starter for 10 - and not the best - but just to get the ball rolling...

Why not just stick with the tried and tested
"One Jack Grealish, there's only one Jack Grealish...."
Either that or rework The Damned's Grimley Feindish
 
Did these Villa fans really use the Bucks as an example of their ownership not being concerned about money? They obviously know fuck all about the Bucks and how they've been dodging the luxury tax for years despite having a championship caliber roster. They even did it two days ago by letting PJ Tucker walk just to stay under the tax line.

Fucking bellends.

Absolutely fantastic, thanks :-D

Far weirder than I anticipated but all the more captivating because of it.

PS. Is there an antidote?
It’s firmly lodged in my head, can we do something to somehow unwatch it?

Hate to say it mate but you will randomly start singing this every few months now. I have enjoyed this video since the Sheikh bought the club. I go back to it when I’m feeling blue. And i love to annoy the wife with it
 
Very excited by what he brings to the squad, the hope is is he’ll be central piece for then next 5-6 years.

do I think the we overplayed what his true market value is? Yes

but even so Let’s say his true value is 80M, the club chose to pay a premium and I imagine they have their reasons.
  1. Pep specifically asked for him
  2. Need new talent as to keep squad competitiand Not many players move the needle considering the quality in the squad already
  3. the board wants to go all out in Peps final contract years (champions league)
  4. English Premium
Also what’s the alternative? We go for someone like James Maddison who was no chance of getting into the squad or we don’t bring anyone in and save a few million?

Sometimes the cost of doing nothing is greater than that of taking a calculated risk. Similar situation with Kane IMO

Yes, you’re wrong, but never let that get in the way of a good piece of poor deflection.

Carry on with the delusion. You wear it well.

No. He’s not wrong. You’re just a know nothing tit who refuses to admit when you’re wrong.

Damocles took the time to explain it to you. Now another poster has. You could even help yourself by reading any one of a number of articles on the subject:

www.verdict.co.uk

The true extent of spiralling inflation in football’s transfer market

Inflation has increased prices by approximately 168% in last three decades. One pound in 1990 is worth £2.37 in 2018. In the world of football, that same £1 would be worth £40 now, as transfer market prices spiral out of control.

Football inflation skyrockets as transfer fees go crazy

Would Diego Maradona really be worth the same as Andre Gray in today's market?

You’ll look less of a clueless twunt by reading any of the above. Or you can continue to embarrass yourself all you want.

It wasn’t an error, but you enjoy yourself thinking you’re spanking me in public.

I gave facts…as in actual inflation…and was shown that he was talking about a made up metric called “football inflation.”

There’s nothing wrong with differing points of view, nor acknowledging an error. I’ve apologized many times for them…when making them.

Funny to watch you going to so much trouble to try to make a wholly personal point. You need a life.
 
At least Grealish will not be moaning about the weather and pining for warmer climes. Suspect at least two players to depart so Jack will not cost us anything. Move on to Kane with one other departure and we will have two excellent players for a reasonable net outlay. One player less on the books but some promising youngsters knocking at the door.
