Fair point could be the case, just frustrated that offer rejected has not been announced. So us fans are in limbo refreshing page every 5 seconds lol

Only my view but surely this suggests if offer was made it has not been out right rejected. Supposedly we bid for JWP and saints rejected it. This could be a case of 100mil on table await jack return on Monday offer new contract and see what he wants ( crazy when he has 4 yrs on old contract left)

Dale stephens has escaped the basement lol

I 100% agree and this could mess up all the other quality players we have listed. Realistically we could lose jack and have to lower the level of player we try sign because losing your star man might just put a few targets off joining. However if he was to stay we will power on.

Stay jack cmon UTV #villa4life

Lol brilliant

Still zero correspondence from club rejecting this supposed bid. I'd feel a little happier if they at least interacted, I know it's not the norm but this is a huge matter for all concerned. all I.can guess is Skype meeting discussing this through.

This concerns me I can remember that domino effect and was the start of the nose diving of our club.

Yes agree and derby are in utter turmoil now. We must trust NSWE even if jack leaves.

Guys on a serious note let's say NSWE authorise the sale of jack I think as fans we must be respectful to the guys who saved us and trust them to rebuild stronger. I say this with regards to bad relations from some potential fans towards the owners. It's not unrealistic if this jack situation gets ugly that the owners say sod it this is not the way to be treated. I know it's a big if but in the past we have not always agreed with board room decisions.

I think this matter needs sorting before Monday. I know Jack has holiday and not due back until Monday but this whole matter of is he staying or going is time critical. Request he attends bodymoor heath and thrash this out one way or the other and then get on with plans for new players incoming.

Club need to.act quick season starts in a few weeks let's not drag this out and not get sufficient replacements in place. If jack goes we can move forward with brilliant recruitment, but we cannot delay preparing for this season. Obviously the loss of our star player will hurt but not forever life moves on and so does AVFC.

90mil + Morgan Rogers is not in anyway a good deal for villa. You would not offer a potential gem as player exchange so it would appear they have over inflated Morgan value. It's insulting to our club and our fans. offer proper money or shut the door on your way out

OK guys at what sort of time frame do we expect a response form the club if this bid is true. 5pm or much sooner?

I know it's covid times but group hug needed guys this is going to get intense.

I pray they say 0 1 2 1 do one

Now I'm concerned, looks like this could be on our boy Jack to decide. Rumoured we wanted 100mil if true they have bid it, let's await the response from the club.

My main concern is this situation holding up our preparation for new season. Didn't villa want business done early, we just cannot have this delay every summer regarding signings, it's beyond funny.

Which ever way this goes Aston Villa move forward, for me if jack leaves we will see more incomings than if he stays. NSWE have invested big but to think if grealish goes and we will stand still it's not going to happen.

Just seen Rob Dorsetts reporting on ssn this dosnt look like it's barely started. I totally understand that city wouldn't go straight in at 100mil but would play a slowly slowly approach but they must realise we have no need to sell so its pay up or walk away. I can see an offer coming in within next few days to test the water possibly starting at 85mil and then play it accordingly. Imo City have so many attackers grealish will want regular football which he will get but not 90minutes every week. City will guarantee trophies plus a big payrise but he will effectively not have the big fish tag like he's used to. Any drop in form and he's immediately under pressure from those around him. For me I want him to stay and carry on the project the owners have. If he has any doubts he should take a look at matt le tissier and Steven Gerrard they both came close to moving to big clubs but decided against it and both have said they had zero regrets. Your dream was to play for Aston Villa your boyhood club and also play for England you've achieved both, domestic trophies are achievable at the Villa and if all goes to plan Europe could be in the near future so make sure your passport dosnt run out.

I think a case of better the devil you know. Jack's shins are a concern and I 100% agree 100mil is great money but I just don't think this season our squad could afford to lose his talents. If the owners carry on building there could be a day when both parties decide its best but I for one think jack on his day is unplayable and would rather have him with us than against us.

Very good post villa park could be back to full last thing we need is jack leaving, replacements not signed and we start badly,things could toxic.

That would soften the blow buendia looks quality but I'd rather jack with him than instead of him.

And sign who to replace him. Clubs will over inflate prices. 4yrs on his contract next season his value will be higher after another superb season.

Makes you think maybe gentlemrns agreement and not release clause.
