Jack Grealish

[Centurions]

Did wonder, didn’t he wear bee stuff when we were after him. Then again Haaland wore blue trainers so probably nothing reallly

So we're signing Haaland & Grealish? Good times.



I should have put a smiley on my original post BTW :)

Wtf is this?

Collymore famously said Pep wouldn’t succeed in the prem playing his style of football.
Half decent player but shit for brains as a pundit

It's called twitter. It's a social media site which allows users to post and interact with messages known as tweets.

Haha......touché

Meant dick swinging thread.
Not calling you a dick..you dick. :)

In fairness Collymore is very biased towards Villa. So in this case I think his ramblings are more about rationalising things as a Villa fan rather than his usual idiocy. Although, his usual idiocy is still there too.

Yeah, he's biased, but he's mainly a cock.

Won't be a success

Jesus, wasn't expecting to get as many backs up with that comment, wasn't intended as a wind up. We were big in the late 60s, early 70s then fell into oblivion in the grand scheme of things, as others benefited from the start of Premier League, including the juggernaut of Manchester United.

Villa were one of the EFL founder members with fantastic early success, then obviously won the European Cup nearly a century later. Go to the Midlands, it's a massive catchment area and if people don't support United or Liverpool, it's usually Villa. We have been so lucky with the investment we've been given, but without that we are a mid table top division team with about 30-40k hardcore fans (consistently higher crowds than Villa in the Championship, so fair play). The last 10 years has been great but we need to sustain that for the next 20-30 years to be considered up there with the Uniteds, Liverpools, Arsenals. Loads of fans coming through in Gen Z and younger, but it'll take these guys starting to come to games and bringing their kids too for us to grow as a genuine fanbase. Currently we wouldn't fill a stadium the swamp's size week in week out. They struggle due to their drop off in success, and they're a generation or two ahead of us in their establishment at the big table. History isn't everything, we are a fantastic club with a fantastic bunch of fans and we are here to stay; but we're not a massive club.

Back to Grealish, I agree he's stuck around at Villa and been a legend there. Most of their fans probably wouldn't begrudge him a move to a title contender.

There‘s some utter bullshit written on here sometimes but this has to be the biggest pile of shit I’ve ever read from any City fan. It’s almost like a rag wrote it. What utter fucking tripe.

We are the most successful club of the last decade and will continue for some time given the investment and infrastructure. We have just as big a fan base as any London or Midlands club, if not bigger, and continue to grow as more kids jump on the winning team bandwagon.

Rags and scousers get most fans from abroad who never go to any games, and many probably couldn’t even point to Manchester on a map.

City are right up there as one of the biggest clubs in Europe and I see no evidence to suggest that will change anytime soon.

6 or 7 hmm? Go on and what's your criteria?

Exactly…
I make it 3 at most

The one more year thing still doesn't make any sense to me. If his heads turned he may as well leave. What's he going to achieve next season at Villa? Overhaul about 5 clubs to get a Europa Conference place is about the best they could hope for right now.

we was just going to be a flash in the pan win the FA cup then go away
top 4 was untouchable a closed shop and forget winning the league never in Fergie life time

so funny that not only did are fantastic owners blow the premier league apart we invented the new top 6 for clubs like united and liverpool ? wow 10 years. just let that settle in. breath it in. drink it in. manchester city are the major players in the english game. not only won 5 titles and never outside the top 4. we now have players wanting to come and play for the best club in england
