This is the season to see what Smith is about he has to seek a new brand of football post jack leaving. Lots saying we can't do this can't do that can't play this formation or that formation. Smith has signed these players, for me he must use the players in strongest position if we play Watkins and ings then they play as forwards not one on the wing. I personally think Smith is still unsure on formation to use but he needs to get it sorted quickly, Watford game was poor at best. I'd like 4-1-4-1 Emi Cash Konsa Mings Targett NEW DM Mcginn (all-round engine back and forward) Beundia Bailey Ings ( just off watkins) Watkins

Not sure what plans the villa have for JWP and if saints will sell but something looks like it's brewing with JWP and Spurs. Odds for villa to sign JWP are 6/5 but spurs have gone from 40/1 down to 4/1 in 2 days and now they are 5/2. My point of view is if we want him bid our sealing bid and give them a take it or leave it. If they reject so be it we move on and look elsewhere. Let's not sit back thinking we want him and not be brave in the bids only to regret it. I'm happy with our business and would take JWP but if we don't get him we move on regardless.

JWP is a win/win on so many levels for me. Superb ser piece taker- something we have lacked for many years. Covers lots of ground around the pitch pressing and breaking up play then distributing ball forward. 26yrs old so let's say 40mil ish if he's a success he will gain value so profit but in the meantime he will add to our team. We have ings Watkins mings konsa all dangerous from set pieces but if you don't deliver the ball into the danger area it counts for nothing. I'd bid upto 50mil maximum for him and class this as an investment still mid 20s in age and can get better.

Odds on JWP to VIlla currently 1/2 on skybet. Last night it was 6/4 Make of it what you like but I would love him at Villa.

Agree. For me regardless if he fails medical he will not be captain if he stays so he should just leave Win all the trophies and earn the biggest amount of money he can. Oh and pick a nice spot on the bench he likes to sit because he will not be playing 90mins every game FACT. At villa he had a strop because he came off against Newcastle with 2minutes to go.

This BS will soon be over Jack grealish a footballer .He can watch villa on the TV I doubt in near future he will return to watch. Let him enjoy his life and football we will be moving forward without him and tbh I'm glad every season this would happen the uncertainty. When he sits back and realises what he will do once that contract is signed there will be no coming back. If he gets to 32yrs old and won all his trophies he can forget coming back. It's not him leaving that riles us it's the timing, a club moving forward with a so called villan as captain leaving at the wrong time imo. Next season if we finish 10th again by all means leave he will be approaching 27 then. His agent will have been in his ear, villa are approaching the best times since O'Neil was here and I believe this time we go that step further. NSWE have breathed new life into Villa as I said before You don't choose Aston Villa it chooses you. Onwards and upwards my Villa family let's enjoy this time because its our time forget Jack like he forgot about us. UTV

Ssn said 25mil for ings

30mil where did this figure come from

Jack's burnt his bridges now this love affair is over for him, large amount of fans will not forgive him for this. It's the most high profile player Aston Villa have lost from those big names in the past and what's made it harder to accept is " He's meant to be one of us" Surely his advisors could of said Jack 1 more year and you will know if villa are heading further on the right direction and like you said if we go backwards his move absolutely would have alot less venom and hatred.

I've got zero emojis left but we'll said my friend absolutely spot on.

Yes mate agree. Aston villa had the scenario when Jack's dodgy shins caused him to miss a fair few games we struggled but knew he would be back at some point. Jack leaving results in zero return we go our way forward imo the lifelong fan jack said he is has got off the wrong stop along this journey but if he is happy I know us villa fans will also once dust settles Change is not liked in life I hate it lol but I know it seems like a disaster but this is simply a blip we will regroup rebuild and all pull together because those of us supporting ❤ this club and always will.

When this is done and dusted we will become the New Aston Villa 2021 no more reliance on one man,a brand new era, new players,a new approach to games. Jack grealish will be gone but our Villa will not, we're on a journey let's enjoy it and embrace it. UTV

Jack's at the local store purchasing a trophy cabinet first.

Panic over guys VT can get this for jack to leave with,he's desperate for medals let's start him off. Lol

This would be dreamy. One thing for sure Jack will not play every minute of every game he needs to get this in his head.

100% and we've only just started.

Ssn saying plane has been waiting 2 days for jack to get on it. Pathetic

I bloody hope not ffs this is a circus act this whole jack thing.

If this is true cannot be more than £20mil he's in last year of contract and any higher than the fee I quoted it's a NO FOR ME

At this moment everything for jack has been villa soon to become a city player. Guys we will move on and stick with the villa, I personally think this move will destroy jack mentally. This scenario is like when you've ended a relationship and lived with regret once it's gone it's gone. As soon as he signs the contract this relationship ends but who will have more regret? . Jack will win trophies and earn more money,but he will become a normal player with no special affiliation, he can and will be subbed,left out of starting lineup and not the go to guy. He will still crave his true love Aston VILLA who unfortunately for him will have moved on and left him behind. Buckle up guys this juggernaut is ready to propel forward.

Guys this really is the Start for our great club 100mil for a player who cost us zero in transfer fees. We have bailey and beundia with more to come, we will be a more rounded team with no reliance on one player. When jack was out injured with his shins we struggled. Jack has issues with those shins it's clear but our great club can move on and try to get to the promise land without jack. I'm.excited where we can go the owners will get it right and a new hero can be found. Onwards and upwards thank-you jack grealish goodluck at city. You don't choose aston villa it chooses you. UTV

Anyone take James Rodriguez out of favour with Everton?

He's in Jamaica I believe

That was what I needed after all the grealish uncertainty 5stars for me rating wise lol

Leon's dad very very complimentary of laverkusen said great club and friends and thanks them for the opportunity he said he thinks he will be one of the world's best. Said greatest thing bringing to villa Adaptability. They believe in leon and his ability. I think we've got a player here guys
