I think this started in the time after last Summer when Bernardo asked to leave. We will have told Bernardo “no”, then looked around for a replacement and found Grealish to be interested.I think it's done. I think it was done before the Euros in principle and that we're watching a stage managed PR dog and pony show. City aren't bidding £100m guessing it might be accepted. They know it will be and they know Grealish is signing.
Then with his comments after we played them at the Etihad last season I thought “he wants to play for us!”. While the entire media, the Villa fanbase, the Villa players and manager were all crying about our goal, Grealish came out after the game and spoke about how great a side we are and what playing with de Bruyne would be like.
