I really don’t understand what is happening right now, people are acting like grealish is going to be our lord and saviour. Like he is just going to come to our team and carry us. Grealish is now a better winger and more consistent than sterling who has been crazy good with us for years.How are people still suggesting Sterling has little or no end product?
Sterling is on a different level to Grealish. What Grealish is doing now, Sterling was doing as a teenager for the scousers.
Sterling has been incredibly consistent for the last 3 years. In fact, he's the only player in our squad except for Ederson who has performed well across the last 3 seasons with no major injuries or rough years. He's got 133 goals and assists (including penalties he's won which were scored) since the start of the centurions season. 133. In 3 and a bit seasons. That is ridiculous end product for someone who causes the opposition less problems than Grealish.
85M plus according to Villa fans, huge outlay for the likes of GrealishHow much is he gonna cost like
How much was Maguire again85M plus according to Villa fans, huge outlay for the likes of Grealish
Exactly. 85m for him is definitely not it, he just signed a new contract this year which means he is comfortable at villa.Should've had the foresight to get him earlier, no way we're paying the fees being discussed now.

Not necessarily it just makes good business sense for Villa to get him on a longer contractExactly. 85m for him is definitely not it, he just signed a new contract this year which means he is comfortable at villa.
Yeah the new contract protects both parties. He gets a nice hike in wages and Villa are guaranteed a massive fee when he goes. I'd think United and Chelsea will be in for sure, doubtful we'd get involved in a bidding war in that case.
As someone referenced above, it would be nice for the club to start making more Mane type signings rather than being priced out when they explode into world class territory. The lad Daka at Salzburg looks like one we could do fairly cheaply and for a player showcasing all the raw ability to be a striker at the top level.
I think there is a buyout clause inserted in his new deal at around £60m, that was the trade off.
We don't pay those sorts of transfer feesHow much was Maguire again
Thank you. We need actual wingers, he is just like coutinho or ziyech, can play as a winger but we need a real winger not a player that would always drift inside.So when are we going for a „real“ left winger instead of another „10“ on the wings.
People ask for more evidence but that’s why we spend big on every transfer. Grealish will already go for that in the circumstances, but sometimes you have to trust your gut.
Manè is a good example, he was 1 in 3 at Saints, but you could see he had talent, somebody took a chance and now he’s 1 in 2 and fantastic. Nobody can say for certain what Grealish would be like here, but if we’re only ever going to wait for finished articles we’ll fall behind IMO.
