Dave-R Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Liverpool urged to make shock move for Man Utd and Man City transfer target Jack Grealish https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1227262/Liverpool-shock-transfer-move-Man-Utd-Man-City-Jack-Grealish At big pile of money heading our way if one of the big clubs manages to prize him, but I to think he will stay, hope he does. What do you all think about a bidding war starting off here, whoever ended up with Jack would no doubt have an edge of the field against other teams, that is for sure. I think Jack would end up going for something crazy if all the big clubs start bidding. It would certainly highlight how much these big clubs see Jack Grealish as a massive threat if he is put along side other top names in the world, they would have a massive edge. We however lose our edge at trying to stay up in this league if Jack goes, I think he's worth more than any money they can give us, our status in the premier is at stake.

I think If he ended up anywhere it would be city because PEP is an actual fan of his, he always say nice things about captain Jack.

Printing quotes from managers is fair enough, but generally they print misleading headlines for click bait. In addition they appear to give most stories a negative anti Villa slant. When they were a genuine Birmingham based local paper they were a well respected quality newspaper. Since they became a part of the Trinity Mirror group they have no interest in Birmingham or any local teams or stories. I understand that getting clicks is how they get paid these days, but they would get plenty of clicks if they employed good local journalists who wrote good local stories, football or otherwise. They can’t be bothered and get clicks on the cheap with no effort. If they can’t be bothered then neither should we. We get the newspapers we deserve I’m afraid.

holteend1982 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 With silva leaving at the end of the season I think grealish would be the perfect replacement for him, imagine him in that role with those City players around him he'd be unreal! I think he's here until summer anyway and will get a move after the euros, hopefully he will have a good tournament and we can be looking 90+ for him.

BOYCOTT THE BIRMINGHAM MAIL NOW!!! It's just The Daily Mirror with like 2 local headlines and some made up local football nonsense superimposed onto it. The Birmingham Mail effectively ceased to exist years ago. Look at 90% of other local papers and they will look the same, have most of the same stories but with their couple of local stories / teams clickbait. Sadly Express and Star of Wolverhampton better represents Birmingham news that The Mail. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Afro Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 If we do go down, I think Jack will go and I genuinely would send him on his way with the hope that he is a massive success wherever he ends up. He is way too good for another season in the Championship. He is also too good for another PL relegation battle to be honest. He could treble his wages elsewhere, play at the very highest level, win titles and become a real world icon. He has shown us remarkable loyalty and he needs to be selfish now. Having said all that, he would demand a massive transfer fee. The more top clubs with serious interest the higher that fee will be. Add to that the fact that we don’t have to sell and also the fact that Jack would not cause a fuss and the fee increases a little more. I am talking something in the region of £150M. That sort of money would give us a really good chance to build a much more sustainable future that would hopefully launch us back towards the top of English football when added to the riches on offer from the PL and our owners. I guess what I’m getting at is, maybe it would not be the end of the world if he left. It could be one of those rare deals that works well for all parties. Whatever happens we should enjoy him while we can because he is a special talent that we may never produce again for a very long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly wouldn’t look out of place in any of the top teams though which is a huge compliment. Every top manager would like him in their team/squad. Totally agree. He could play for anyone.

Danishlad Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 We should never ever sell Jack. He is the Crown jewels. He is our Gerrard, Totti, etc. Build around him and we will win things. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 He won't leave this month he's clearly worth far too much to us to risk him going. In the summer he will probably leave however. I think the only chance we'd have of keeping him would be winning the league cup and finishing unexpectedly strongly in the league to comfortable mid table. I expect him to be gone in the summer most likely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Grealish will be gone in the summer regardless of the level we're at, he's far too good for us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Another link to Slimani here. Obviously not a great PL record but from the Monaco highlights he looks exactly like what we wanted to buy in Wesley. Ie a strong presence upfront who can score goals and put others in.

If we stay up, offer him a massive contract and demonstrate intent through squad investment I don’t think he’ll go.

Let him become a legend here. Should stay here his entire career. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaFaninLondon Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 If we stay up and we're to keep him, we have to invest in proven top quality players. We'll need to invest similar sorts of money spent last summer, but on 4-5 players of a much higher calibre. That will probably mean breaking our transfer record fee a couple of times. If we go down I don't see how we can keep him as he's far too good for the Championship, but we'd need to be demanding big money for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
