Has started the season more like the old McGinn we all fell in love with. Very industrious today.
-
Impressive today. Just behind JJ for motm. Gonna take some shifting by Targett, I reckon.

Best performance to date. Looked every bit a PL player today. My motm.

The RJW63 Official Jack Grealish Appreciation Thread
SidSidSidSid replied to kevangrealish's topic in Other Football
That's kinda what I was getting at. The £100m figure was likely more Grealish's/his agent's preference, than the club's. I don't reckon they'd have sold for 60-70m, regardless. They'd have been crucified. -

Ain't watched the video but, from the description I read on here, I thought he said they didn't think it would be met. Not that they set it. Fair enough if they set it...they got it wrong, then. -

Mind if I share this? It's Outstanding! -

Well, firstly, Grealish forced the move, so we have no choice. We can't replace him like-for-like, so we replace Jack and two 'lesser' players with three players who aren't as good as Jack, but cumulatively are as good as, or better than, the previous three...hopefully! Have you not been watching football very long? -

I agree. £100m isn't acceptable compensation for what Villa have lost. I was of that opinion last summer, too. Major miscalculation by the club?...Or taking one for Jack who, on advice from his agent, insisted on the figure? Guess we'll never know. -

Well he was sold on the project less than a year ago. The team made massive strides last season. Most of them, given their ages, can be expected to improve further. The owners have made two, imo, excellent signings of intent so far this window. Keep Jack and there's no reason we can't hope for a top 6 challenge, maybe more if we could get a deadball specialist like JWP. The project's progressing nicely, but losing Jack will derail it somewhat. He knows this as well as most fans do. So it's a question, really, of whether Jack's had his head turned sufficiently to turn his back on the project, his city, his club. If he does, good luck to him. I won't suddenly hate him...but, given his comments last year, I would be a little disappointed in him. -

You're 'choosing to believe' he's been sneaking around Villa's back, including his 'father figure' Smith, making plans to leave, while 'pretending' he was staying? ...That's bizarre to me. -

I've got some bad news for you! But for a few teams in the world...it's a NEVER-ENDING cycle! But you know this already...right? Your petulant footstamping ain't gonna change this. -

You'd be lucky to get Abraham and JWP for £100m! That's why I can't believe our owners would accept that bid. -

I don't see how doing something that would turn our club into a laughing stock would improve morale, tbh! -

Playing Devil's Advocate, I'd say his 'stock', his profile, wasn't anywhere near what it is now, 12 months later. The rest of the football world were still ridiculing Villa fans' insistence that he should be in contention for England starts. He moved on to another level at the start of last season. It was maybe easier for him to proclaim he was on board with Villa's 'project'. He couldn't even convince Man United to bid. Now it seems the best team in the PL want him. Not to mention he's been mixing with PL and Champion's League winners, who he's better than. Having said that, I still think he stays for another season! -

Yeah, but...we all want a Superstar playing for our club, don't we? I get what you're saying, but I've never felt Jack playing for us is a 'distraction', just a pure joy. If he leaves it's a huge blow to our renaissance, not just his ability on the pitch, but the inspiration he gives teammates and fans. Not to mention the pull factor of having a Superstar that others might want to play alongside. -

Yeah, this guy's embarrassingly transparent. 'Villa fan', my ar**! I've been posting on there the last few days, and actually posted a reply to that guff a while back. His posts on there get way more likes than mine! -

I dunno. From reading City fans' comments on Bluemoon, I'd say he's viewed much more 'Gregg Evans' than 'John Percy'! -

What a strange outlook...Do you mean we should be making moves for Kane and Mbappe!? What more should the club be doing, given the reality of where we currently are in the pecking order? -

The 'full info' also includes the fact Jack is contracted for 4 years, and our owners will do all they can to keep him, imo, even if he has had his head turned. -
