It’s still a case of it’s more ‘news’ coming out of their side than it is ours at the moment. Yep, it’s a near carbon copy of Jack’s move to Man U last summer. Doesn’t mean it won’t happen but some fans have short memories in not seeing the similarities that it obviously can’t be certain as claimed.

tomav84 Posted July 28, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 28, 2021 well one things for sure, half of these ITKs must be right funny how we've apparently got a lot of loose lipped staff at AVFC and they all seem to be talking to city fans though 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post villan501 Posted July 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 29, 2021 Let's look at the facts 1.Jack is a villa fan 2.Been part of the club since a young boy. 3.Captain of our great club. 4.loves the villa and always will. Now let's look at the Rumours/possibilities going forward 1. City rumoured to put a bid in to start the ball rolling ( papers said this was done weeks ago) 2. Jack wants to play against the best 3. Jack want to Win silverware. Jack grealish is one of us he lives, breaths, bleeds Aston Villa lots of us believe it's 50/50 if he stays or goes. In Jack's career he has 2 runners up medals in Fa Cup and league Cup plus play off winners and international runners up. Man City would guarantee trophies Jack should be presented with a new contract in the next week or so and decisions to make. Currently he is captain of his boyhood club who have ambitious owners.Ov er the next few weeks our playing personal will increase and quality improved upon. My main point is currently he is at HIS club the club he loves and starts every game, his future will be not be so rosy at a club like city he will not be forever that focal point nor will he be an automatic starter 100% ( pep rotates ) If jack grealish leaves our fantastic club our villa will evolve we will learn a new way to play and Jack grealish will still be a Villa fan. Difference between Jack grealish and the likes of Dwight Yorke,James Miller,fabian Delph,Gareth Barry,Stuart downing etc all stars that left us is whatever happens Jack is Mr Villa he always will be and this won't change all those I named were employed by the club with zero allegience. Our villa will move forward regardless a boy/man that loves a club so much has the hardest decisions to make our owners will do what's right and so will Jack in terms of what's right for him. Buckle up guys this may get tough but as a club we will push on let's hope super Jack stays and leads us forward. UTV 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QldVilla Posted July 29, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 29, 2021 I'm not sure how Jack see's this, does he follow the narrative of the sycophants in the media telling him he needs to go to a big club to win trophies etc, or does he act like a fan would and lead the club back to being a top 4 club again and becoming a club legend? Not an easy choice, I'd hate to be in his shoes, but if he believes, he'll stay with the Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted July 29, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 29, 2021 I think he stays. I don't think Man City pay the fee required to sign him. On another note, in 3 of the last 4 seasons, I think Jack has been out with injury for at least a run of 10 games. I could be mistaken with that but I believe it to be true. 100m is a lot of money for a player who historically will miss a lot of games per season.

Laughable Chimp Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 I've come to terms with the fact that he may leave. I just hope we get proper money for him if that does happen. Needs to be somewhere in the range of significantly more than 100m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DakotaVilla Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Let’s cut through all the click bait and all the crap. The simple question is whether there is a minimum release fee clause or not? If there isn’t a clause then Jack stays unless City bid a truly ridiculous amount - which they won’t. If there is a clause then he’s probably gone unless we somehow sell him again on the project. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funny thing is, nothing has changed from a week or 2 ago when this thread was chill and nobody thought he was leaving even though the usual bullshit articles and tweets were still floating. It's like a switch has been flipped this week. I think it's because @dont_do_it_doug. hasn't been as strict with the daily reminders 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That won't bother Man City who probably don't plan on him starting every week . Might even appeal to Jack given that he has injury time out each season.
