Jack Grealish

[leo_city]

I can't see why they can't use a third party to arrange everything for them, perhaps they could call them 'Football Agents'?

Have I just created a brand new job category?

You are right, a deal can be agreed and he can still have his holiday, come back and get his medical done etc.

But clearly the talks aren't as far down the line. It's just ITK talk for now that it's been sorted since months, or done, or idk imminent etc. All we know is we're interested, and the price he could be available for. Both Villa journos, the reliable ones say there haven't been talks yet, just interest, and our reliable journos are silent on it, only Sam Lee yesterday gave a vague answer saying it could be done quickly lol

JACK OFF

Hope not to see this signing and Grealish on his way to City!
He feels like a rag player to me, character traits are arrogant, big headed, poser and a diver. He'd fit in well with the rags and all their other premadonnas

Here we go again.

Clearly? Sorry, but there's absolutely nothing 'clearly' about it. This is for either scenario BTW. We run a very, very tight ship nowadays and it looks like Villa do as well.

I hate this attitude. Nothing wrong with being confident and having unbreakable self-belief.

We already have too many meek softarses in our team, I want players whose heads won’t drop if we go a goal down or get shit refereeing decisions. I want players who won’t fucking hide if the crowd constantly goad them, or opposition players give them banter and abuse. I want a team of winners who will get stuck in, tell anyone to fuck off and do anything on that pitch to make sure City win at any cost.

Couldn't agree more. We could absolutely do with some arrogant/hard headed characters. It helps a lot in games.

But he doesn't tick majority of those boxes and is hugely overrated and vastly overpriced.

I'm amazed how successful we have been given the litany of failed signings and the cowardly underbelly to our team.

Which of the boxes does he not tick to be a Man City player under Pep Guardiola?

Let me see, technical ability? Yes. Controlling the tempo? Yes. Carrying the ball in and out of tight spaces? Yes. Potential to improve further under Pep? Yes. Hard worker who doesn't shy from defensive work rate? Yes.

Carries himself well, confident, a good team player. But oh oh! Brummie accent! Diver! Arrogant! Come on. Really? Do you hate Raheem as well? Were you angry when he won England the penalty off a so called dive?

Ha, read my thoughts.
