He's shown his hand and clearly wants to go. We don't have to play ball, and we shouldn't unless the money is right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPower_14 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 It's possible to both be absolutely gutted that our talisman is going and also be content that we'll be okay if we reinvest well. Supporters are allowed to care about players, especially ones of this calibre. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the latter suggests he has no loyalties to Villa so what is the motivation for him to stay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's never had the choice to leave because a club has never made an accepotable offer. Are we praisin hium fror not downing tools and refusing to play? He signed a 5 year contract, if he's now saying he wants to leave, he's pissed over any concept of loyalty, and waved goodbye to having any kind of legacy at Villa. He said all the right things, but as soon as he's had a real chance to leave, he's off. Calm down. He’s not walking away for free. We will be aptly rewarded for his ability and loyalty. What would have been a kick in the teeth would be if he had gone to a shit club like spurs. If he goes, he’s going for trophies. What would be a crying shame is if a talent like that won nothing in his career. I would love for a Villa fan to win the ballon d’or. If he goes I hope he absolutely lights the world up. I wish he’d stay, but if anyone has earnt this move, it’s him. I for one will not have anyone saying anything bad about him. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 At least we still have Louie, who is also Villa, through and through. FWIW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 It's going to be a dark day when a moderator has to move this thread to 'other football'. I wouldn't wish that task on my worst enemy. Good luck whoever you are. I'm sad just thinking about it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKP90 Posted July 30, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 30, 2021 If he goes I will 100% wish him well, as he really is a top player and it’s been a pleasure watching him. However, he is under contract. Which means that regardless of how much he want’s to go, the final decision to accept a bid rests with the board.

M_Afro Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 This will only happen if they meet our valuation. If they don’t, then he isn’t going anywhere. If they do, then our leadership obviously think it’s too good to turn down. I trust them. Whatever happens will be for the greater good of AVFC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically we could lose jack and have to lower the level of player we try sign because losing your star man might just put a few targets off joining. However if he was to stay we will power on. Don’t think this is the case, it’s all about money and what you throw in front of the players . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like sneaky leaving, where people still think you're there. And sort of like literally leaving when there isn't a shred of you present.

Okonokos Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 The more people say it, the more I can't help but think maybe his shins could be a factor that affects NSWE's decision. I mean it was pretty obvious the issue was being played down a few months ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
