Jack Grealish

[Bill Walker]

Haaland and mbappe could be doable but smartarse will cost a few quid just can't see it.

Yeah smartarse is a top player.

 

[mosssideblue]

I think we could get Haaland or Mbappe. Why not smartarse ?

Why do you think?

If there was a release clause this would already be done.

Disagree. I think Villa have matched or surpassed our wage offer. I see Ahsan is of the same opinion but like anyone else it’s a guess based on what has gone on so far. Even if we sign him people will guess at the fee and we won’t know what was in there.

How?
Look at sancho to the rags, done deal but not officially announced.

Probably causing a stink because he wants the number 7 off Cavani.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

I see City extra have said we're getting grealish in the next few days. In fact nearly every twitterati I've read has said it's a done deal at some point or other. Every one of them have been wrong so far.

It would actually be more of a scoop if they reported that the deal isn't done

It has been announced subject to a medical.

 

[AliAdel]

Unless they’re actually pushing for top four, this has got to be Grealish’s replacement.

 

[manimanc]

It has been announced subject to a medical.

And if they can squeeze his big head through Carringtons entrance.

If City arranged a deal with Grealish and Barnett, then made an offer for the release clause and then Grealish and Barnett started discussing a new contract with Villa, City would drop the deal like a sack of bricks. We've already seen that with Fred and Jorginho and Sanchez.

If there was a release clause, it'd be over. Would you like to come here Jack? here's what we'll offer you. Agreeable? good. Here's £85m Villa. Welcome to Manchester City.


With loads of other business to be done, ingoing and outgoing, the club wouldn't piss about delaying activating a release clause.
