I remember this story from a year ago when he was signing with Manure. Yep - one of my mates who works in media in Manchester/Liverpool was told that Grealish had bought a house in Manchester last summer and was apparently joining Man Utd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I would include Danny Ings because Nick Pope hasn't played many games recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENTLEMAN Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) According to Gregg Evans, when Jack is with his dad pregame they play Atomic by Blondie to get Jack pumped up.

But this one, where we are making big strides, adding quality, a world cup next summer where he will want to be on centre stage all season, this window makes little sense. I'd even say a new contract with £150 million release clause is more likely than him moving. Minor point: the 2022 World Cup isn't in the summer, it's in 18 months' time.

He can stay this summer, next summer and be worth £300,000,000 by the January transfer window 2023. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveAV1 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Just a thought, if the ESL had gone ahead, the players of those clubs may never have played for their countries again. Some might not care but I’d say a significant number of England players would. I’d include Harry Kane and Jack in that list. They could still try to resurrect it. Another reason why Jack will stay and the only club for Kane to consider moving to is us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea - most of the rumours are "a friend of a friend reckons that <x>" which is isn't worth paying much attention to, even if there may be some true to it. I think they're probably like a game of Chinese whispers - for example, it may well be that Jack Grealish owns property in Manchester. He earns a lot and may want a second home up there; who knows. This 'truth' could then be elaborated on: "Grealish is buying a house in Manchester... I wonder if he's moving club?" "Grealish is buying a house in Manchester and I've heard he might move club" "Grealish is buying a house in Manchester ahead of a move to Man Utd" "Grealish is joining Man Utd after buying a house in Manchester" and so on. I don't consider my mate to be ITK by the way; he just works in sports media and hears various things. No "source" or anything which is why I hadn't said anything on here.

Getting low level stalked It really doesn’t matter who the player is though, almost every player linked to us you go straight to attack dog mode. Rubbishing the source, the poster, the player. It’s just so tiresome and predictable. However it’s clear you aren’t going to change your stance and that is of course your right. So I’ll say no more on the matter.

So I’ll say no more on the matter. Please list I said nothing negative about Buendia. I was excited having wanted him since last season. If I think a link is false I'll say it or should I be a happy clapper? Please link "almost every player linked to us I've gone into attack dog mode" bar JWP or stop posting shit about me.

Why? We don’t need to sell. He’s contracted for years. Let’s not be fatalistic about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe me the last thing I want is for us to sell Jack, but I can't help worrying. Mainly as I have a number of City supporting mates who I would particularly enjoy shoving it up to.
