I hate sitting near cunts like you at games, assuming you go to any. Only happy when you’re bringing the general mood down.

Rather than be glad you got your wish, instead you come in here sticking the boot in to a player who won the Treble with this club, which in any reasonable supporter’s mind should make him a legend. It seems to me that you don’t enjoy following this football club as much as you should, if that is your first instinct when someone leaves the club. Someone who hasn’t moaned once.

I wish Jack all the very best, and hope he has a successful time at Everton. Thanks for helping make some unforgettable memories, at least for those of us who appreciate them.

You not want to sit near me any more then?

And I hate cunts like you who think it’s ok for a player to be a disruptive influence turning up to training pissed up not making squads etc which has led for pep to basically force him out the club.

Each to their own though eh?

Yes, I’m sure more people would choose to sit next to you at games, assuming you go to any.

Totally agree

Jack has been far from a disaster. What I will say is each time he has started to show a bit of form he has picked up an injury.
Maybe that’s down to conditioning and looking after yourself.
But I for one think he has done ok.
Also, like Haaland, he sells shirts and attracts fans. So some of his fee would have been covered by that.

I’ve loved having Jack here mate.

I was a huge fan when he was at Villa and have really enjoyed watching him in the shirt.

Unfortunately we never got to see him at his best that often as, in my opinion, we didn’t use him as best we could. He thrives as a floating 10 not as a touchline hugging winger, but still, you cannot knock his trophy haul.

He gets some stick on here but I can guarantee we’d have been better off with him than without him.

You can keep insinuating I don’t go to games because I have different opinion to you all you like.

Believe it or not not every match going fan thinks grealish is the second coming of Christ.

That could be £300m, if they're under no obligation, it's worthless. Why would Everton pay £50m for a player with 12 months left on his contract when they had him for a year on loan with 2 years left. The very inclusion of that, if true just makes us seem amateurish.

Option to buy is only ever a worthwhile clause for the team bringing in the player. it protects them against inflated prices if the player performs whilst with them, effectively punishing them for getting a tune out of a player. when they're included by the selling club, they're useless and nearly always are either passed on or are renegotiated.

I dont see a scenario where Everton are pushing for a clause that would allow them to buy grealish for £50m next year with 12 months left on his contract when they could have him for less now or get a cast iron obligation to buy in 12 months for less too which suggests it's city that have pushed for that if it is indeed accurate.

If he has a fucking stormer of a season they may well be happy to stick the money down.

I know he has divided opinion, I’ve been on both sides of the fence myself but surely this now cements the opinion that he has been a poor signing?

29 years old (should be in his prime), bought for £100m just 4 years ago, poor G/A return over the 4 years and then ends up at Everton on loan.

We will always have that treble season (and some will say that cancels out all the negatives) but it’s a sorry state of affairs for our record signing.

I wish him all the best at Everton but this is not how it was supposed to go.

Bollocks.

3 PLs, our first CL and a fucking treble is not a “sorry state of affairs” by any sensible measure.

If not the above, how else was it “supposed to go”?
 
Everton is his level.
A player overhyped from the start by the English media and we will now see the headlines of how Pep/city spolt him.
Rinse and repeat with the media to satisfy the mindless public who read their drivel

It’s not normal for a club to spend £100m (record signing) on a player, win all those trophies, including a treble and then send the player out on loan is it?

If he was the rip-roaring, unadulterated success, we all wanted, it wouldn’t be happening. It’s the club that’s doing it, not me, so clearly Pep and the powers that be, don’t think this has gone the way it was meant to. At £100m, Grealish was meant to be here for the rest of his career, not dropped from the CWC squad and then farmed out to a team that’s been battling relegation every season for as long as I can remember.

That’s why it’s a sorry state of affairs.

Very odd take

I think the are are a few who don’t understand a players’ role under pep and in this squad. The price wasn’t anyone’s fault but Villa’s and the powers that be at ours saw in enough in him to take that hit.

What we’ve won since he has had a say in, and therefore he has been a success.
