Okonokos Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 1 minute ago, meregreen said: I remember when Allan Shearer had the option when leaving Blackburn, to go to either Man Utd or his hometown club of Newcastle. He chose the club that was closest to his heart, and even though he won nothing at Newcastle he said he had no regrets. Man Utd fans were spitting nails, they had no comprehension about the love a player can hold for the team that’s in his blood. Always respected Shearer after that. Feel we’ve got a player like that ourselves now. Well done Jack There is no greater ambition than playing for and captaining the club you love. That or play for a bunch of plastic, prawn sandwich eating glory hunting scum? Not a hard decision. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is living his dream - playing for the club, captain, adored, and now in the England squad. The fact he is able to set himself and his family up for life financially is great, but it's not the biggest factor. And the fact he'll never have to buy another drink as long as he lives. If he goes anywhere else, he will have a job. And that's brings a different sort of pressure. Ask Gareth Bale. Would he exchange his medals for being truly happy? I'm sure he would. He’s not like me. I’m shite at football and work in banking. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers! Missed the part about starting the season here and then move. Wasn't paying full attention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is true but I do expect we put in a minimum fee release clause, and a relegation release clause too probably with two different figures. Guess it will have come down to what jack and his agent will have felt was appropriate and realistic, has to be at least £80M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newry_Villan Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Yea they know they peddled this story all summer and it's gone tits up for them. Trying to cover their arse and say there is a release clause. Hope Purslow comes out and says there isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilS Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Haha it didn't take long for the first "Man Utd fans all make the same point after Jack Grealish signs new contract" article to appear courtesy of Manchester Evening News on News Now. Basically saying they don't need him anymore, they have spent the best part of 12-18 months begging him to sign for Man Utd on social media and forums etc. Poor bitter little plastics.

Rightdm00 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 32 minutes ago, Pelle said: In that interview, did I get it right that up untill a couple of days ago he didn't know where to play? Which to me sounded like it wasn't clear in which position he was meant to play the coming season. Or did I get it completely wrong? If not it sounds like we're having a new player coming in rather soon. Rashica? He said he didn't know what club he was going to start the season with. So it's clear the management team had to sell Jack on committing his future to Villa. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
