Jack Grealish

Reading the comments on here this seems like the most leaked transfer of all time. From someones best mate, to the training ground, from Grealish himself, Southgate seems to know, he is a really good lad, who just wants to win. City seemingly have leaked it too.
More leaks than in my 120 yr old Spanish roof, oh yeah Spanish blue has info too, from the Villa captain of yesteryear no less, I wonder if the tea lady has put her hat in the ring-)

Don't think City have leaked it but I was told that when the story appeared recently, they didn't deny it and they are usually quick to tell journos if they got stories like that wrong (which has been pointed out by others on this thread) but I was told that directly by someone that definitely knows such things and commented specifically in connection with Grealish. Hopefully, I've not put the kiss of death on it by commenting. As I also posted previously, Grealish's people thought he was going to The Rags and then they bought Van de Beek.
 
The time to improve is when you are winning! Something we failed to do in recent years? Haaland, grealish and nuno Mendes makes our opponents feel defeated already imo.

All about being ruthless isn't it? I think we suffered (especially in the 2012 Summer window) of feeling loyal to the player who'd just won us the league then suffered the season after.

Not saying revitalise a lot but there's obvious room for improvement right now isn't there despite how good we've been. Striker, left back etc. (like you said!)

it totally is about being ruthless! Make them feel like they’ve lost every signing we make!

I am the only one who hasn't heard a dickey bird -)

Outstanding player with a higher ceiling to reach, certainly when surrounded by top players.

There's no debate to be had, he's hungry, he wants to play for City, he is desperate for it to happen.

Players with talent and motivation are a lethal combo.

What the chances for it to be done??
 
So reports say he has a release fee or something similar, I'd be interested to know what it is

Think if it's around £60mil there is a deal to be done

Can't see us spending £80mil upwards though
 
Character matters because of squad harmony and the dressing room dynamic but I'll trust Pep and the others to assess that. The England lads will have seen how he is during the international matches and can probably make an assessment as well.
His character will change wants he leaves Villa. He won't be the Billy big bollocks at a bigger club like City, where they have a world class squad
