Jack Grealish

[SWP's back]

He's not.

We're a completely different kettle of fish, unlike anything he's ever experienced. His game is to hog the ball as much as he can, give it away reluctantly (to his teammates) and thus slowly, and look pretty - all in a mid-table team (at best).

Lots of nice little flicks and tricks, no look passes. Great stuff for Youtube..... not so much for a team with our level of talent and yearly ambition. We sign him and he's going to be in for the shock of his life, realising he's not the talisman or allowed to hold onto the ball as much as he usually does.

Embarrassed for you but still book marking.

Had a feeling this would be the first to get over the line. Don't care what the fee is as I think he's gonna be outstanding for us

Villa fans on Villatalk reckon that waving dud pound notes around when we signed Gareth Barry shook us to the core.
Well lads and lasses, did it shake you to the core ?

Remember the hostile receiption they gave Delph

was a bit less hostile when we went back later in the season for the cup game and battered them in front of 17 villa fans in attendance

I'm just concerned about who is leaving to accommodate. Rumours are to get him and Kane for over £100m apiece means we will have to lose two to comply with FFP and that concerns me because I can't think of anyone we have that we would want to lose that is worth a good amount of cash anyway.

Bernardo, Jesus, some CFG fodder that earns us more money

My money is on Mahrez, who will go down well at PSG.

I doubt we want to lose Bernardo but if the player has made clear he's ready to leave then so be it. I'd expect the fee for him to be in the region of 60-70m
Then there are the fringe/loaned players who we are selling as well as Sanes fee which is added to this year's accounts.
This deal is easily achievable, though personally I agree with others that 100m is steep.

You have. Follow the arrows and you get to 9.38 Tolmies post.

However just watching your YouTube with Ahsan and I think Ahsan’s take is correct.
