My missus now thinks I'm involved with someone else because I can't stop laughing and men only laugh / smile so much if you're seeing someone else.
Thanks for that she's off to her mum's! Jackpot!
I don't have anything us signing Tammy Abraham potentially. I just think we can buy better for half the price of the alleged £40m. Or for £40m we can get someone like Belloti (his release clause used to be around £60m but pandemic maths).
If not him there the likes of Berisha and Koita from RB Salzburg who will cost much less than the £40m we'd spend on Tammy.
After last season I believe he wants to win the League title. Don't be surprised if we mount a sustained top 6/7 challenge this season with some flirtations with the top spot. All in readiness for next season 22/23 for the real title tilt.
The thing is he will win more titles and trophies with man city than he will with us. Liverscum, scumchester United, Chelsea, are for the last 20 years always seen as title challengers even arsenal are.
That's what needs to be ingrained into our club. I remember the 2-2 draw against the Arse boxing day when Zat Knight scored the equaliser everyone celebrated like they won the league.
However we smashed them and had chance after chance after chance to really bury them in the chase for top 4. 3 players walked off looking pissed - Barry, Young and Milner. They looked vexed because we should have won the match after a brilliant performance where we dominated the whole game except 15 minutes where they scored 2.
That's where we need to be. And that's where Jack is. He's a title challenging player.
I'm one of those that's an Aston Villa fan first and then I'll have an affinity for the players. If Jack Grealish leaves he's no longer a villa player therefore like all the other opposition players will be booed by me.
Aston Villa shouldn't give a toss about jack's career unless it's it with us do you think he'd deliberately miss for his team that need a win if presented with a chance that means we get relegated?
All this one man club nonsense is a load of hogwash. Footballers want to earn as much money as they can and win as many trophies as they can. Totti won titles at Roma and they were seen as title challengers for most of his Roma career.
I should have been more clearer. Signing the likes of Tielemans before he signed for Leicester same with Ndidi. Those two now would command north of £70m + .
FWIW I think there's better value than JWP elsewhere. As others have asked and answered, for me I don't think he's a top 6 player. We need to be looking at Tielemans and Ndidi level players.
Not for me. Jack is elite level now. He wins you matches and I think he's ready to win titles.
We'd have to bring in someone like Messi, Haaland or Mbappe that calibre of player to truly replace Jack.
That's why last season I wanted us to go all out for Cavani as he's still an elite performer but with that winning mentality that Jack has.
We could do with finding a Bruno Fernandes (sabre toothed knobend) , who has been worth his weight in gold.
I actually think if it wasn't for the covid stuff he could have gotten around 21-23. Next season he'll hit 20 + easily.
Hopefully with a few bribes to the referees and VAR he might even hit 30 in all comps.
That's what it is. I'd put counter bids in for the likes of Rashford, Foden, KDB, Mane, Salah, Kane, and the dinosaur mascot from arsenal.
That'll piss em off.
Looking at it from another angle - Jack has improved year on year and has been rewarded accordingly. This shows if the others improve they too will be rewarded too.
