Once again your football knowledge astounds us all. I'm just saying he needs to back up his performances with assists and goals if he wants to sement a starting place. He is a FORWARD player. 1 assist and 0 goals in 6 games or whatever it is can be improved on. Edited June 17, 2021 by villalad21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Southgate would do that. Steve Bruce would, but then again he would replace anyone with a right back. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players do not get MAN OF THE MATCH ratings for England without being pretty damned good. Anyway, how is he supposed to get those goals and assists if he isn't being played?

No it's not the only measure but England isn't exactly got an abundance of goal scoring midfielders. They are pretty reliant on their forward players to get goals and that's exactly what Sterling provided. IMO Jack has played well but we still need to see more of an end product from him in an England shirt. 1 assist 0 goals in 7 games isn't great and can be improved on.

You need both parts. I'm not saying goals and assists is everything but you cannot ignore it. England need goals and assists from their forward players. It's essential.

If he'd have gone somewhere else It would have been just a very well paid job that he couldn't give a **** about and he might have been on a gary Gardner type level career. He is staying, he's a lifer, we are on an incredible journey, succeeding with Villa is way more important to Jack then extra money and paid for trophies. I hope your right mate, I really do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 If Jack would leave this summer I think the distance between being a fan and being a football player would be too much for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachoFantastico Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I don't see Jack going anywhere unless the likes of City offer ridiculous money as that's the only legit move up I can see for him. It's clear the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United couldn't afford him anyways so his options would be very limited. A move to Europe, say Spain? Who knows. But it will cost at least £100 million if not more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

United maybe could if they did no other business, but Jack isn't going to transform that team into title winners so that isn't happening. It's City or bust for me. I can't see it, he stays imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 With his injuries over the last few seasons I (hopefully) can't see anyone paying the £100 million plus to sign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted June 17, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 17, 2021 oh no A random Talk Sport interview just popped up on my YouTube feed with an interview with Jack. Turns out he doesn't know what an Encyclopedia is haha. Made me cringe. So glad he's an amazing footballer and doesn't need to use his brain for anything else.

If they offer the big doe for club and player I think he'll go. He also has said he would love to play with DeBruyne and be managed by Mourinho or Guardiola. Gotta say, I'm a little worried. Simples. Lets get a bid in for de Bruyne and Pep and Jose can come and work under Richard Kelly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
