Sam Lee suggesting fee agreed, personal terms accepted, now up to Jack to decide. BUT still won’t commit to saying the deal will get done, as Jack could u-turn and stay at Villa. 
 

Still sitting on the fence with it 

He's going to get splinters in his turtleneck. 

Just need Evans to tweet about 'Villa are interested in Bailey'

I remember the Platt sale. Like you I was gutted. He was my hero and kept us up singlehandedly that season under Dr Jo

You are a bit out on the season of great football though... that wasn't the season after Platt left, it was two seasons after. Big Ron's first season was decent, we finish 7th but had a spell of 1 goal in 11 games in mid season - imagine if that happened now! Meltdown. The following year when we got Houghton in and then Saunders signed, plus Dalian was back from injury, we were majestic, and came 2nd  

ps Platt left on 20th July 1991. A few days over 30 years ago! Where does time go? 

Platt was my favourite player. Cried when he left. Then Atkinson came and and I was Platt who? 

I sent him a DM on Instagram 2 hours ago asking him if he was staying or going and he hasn't responded. He's off lads

Man City have fresh ‘rivals’ for Jack Grealish as transfer saga sets new course

A report in Italy claims Chelsea are attempting to usurp Manchester City by making an 11th-hour swoop to sign Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish.

The 25-year-old has been linked with a move to the Etihad all summer and it was thought the deal was close. Villa do not want to sell the England international and are demanding a huge fee for his services. At one stage it appeared as though the West Midlanders would not play ball over the local star.

But rumours persist that the united front of wanting to keep their prized asset is just a ruse to drive up his price. There is still nothing to report on any official City bid.

And now TMZ (via Caughtoffside) are suggesting that the Blues are about to launch their own assault for the schemer. It is said that the Premier League champions will have to pay £88m for the Birmingham-born ace.

TMZ?? 

Everyone knows the owners run their decisions by the club shop. He's clearly leaving.

I have no problem with Toney Daley he is my hero as well.

My problem with jack woodward is he never gives any insight or helpful commentary on the actual football and instead focuses on his alan partridge impressions and stand up act. I dont want to listen to jack Woodward clown around. I want a professional commentator who knows something about football and can tell me something I dont know.

I find him insufferably annoying and and embarrassment to watch when they unwisely let him interview people, he was rightly booted out the club years ago. The fact he has weaseled his way back in after promotion really pisses me off. Plenty of good people who want a career in sports commentary could do do his role, give them an opportunity. 

rant off

At least he isn't Sam Matterface. Low bar I know. 

Woodward did confuse Davies and Wesley even though Wesley had been sent off. 

I went to my local chip shop in Croydon and they had no photos of Jack up on the walls. Guess that means he's leaving Villa. 

Why do people do fake itk? What's the point? I imagine them at the Keyboard like this

Apart from the goal, he's looked very good. 

Where have these James rumours come from? 

Grealish could go, although I don't think he will, but I'm sick of places like Football 'Insider' writing itk that he's leaving every week for what feels like a year. Has that word removed ever got anything right? 

Also people like Danny Mills, wtf do you know about what Villa's transfer dealings? 

It shouldn't anger me, but it does. 

Can he do it on a cold, rainy night at Stoke?

Would be cool to sign another player similar level to Buendia and keep Grealish. I wonder if pundits will take notice of us then?

 

Nah, they'll say he's using Villa as a stepping stone to 'bigger' team.

Love seeing him in a Villa shirt again. 

Got to try and not get too excited as it's preseason, but those passes were the nuts. 

And another one. It's going to be great! 

Spending the Kane money in advance eh?

Pablo said he decided to join the so-called “Wembley jib” after trying every day last week to get a legitimate ticket.

He said: “I just thought my dad is 52 and he’s never seen England in a final at Wembley. And it might never happen again in my lifetime. There were 30,000 spare seats and we didn’t sit in anyone’s seat.”

Makes it all better.
