delboy54 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 lots of humble pie to be eaten and all this leaving stuff is just fiction and he has in fact signed a new contract for us...... 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 tbh, i hope he stays, ofc i do. However, if he does go i will be forever grateful that he helped us back up to the Prem, helped keep us in the Prem and I will see him as a brilliant player who played for us, but i will never see him as a legend or hero status, he will just be another player who left at the first sniff from a plastic club. Also, lets not fool ourselves, he didnt go last season because nobody actually bid for him, so this summer is literally the first genuine bid and decision he has had to make, and if he chooses to leave....on your bike son. If he does choose to stay though, thats how he will cement his status, its really a big decision for him i think, and for how he is seen long term by the Villa faithful. Most important thing is we spend that money very wisely and continue to grow the club, if he does go, i do honestly think we can be a better team without him if the 100m is spent wisely. In closing, ofc we all want him to stay!, lets see what the day brings hey. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it. He still has to play against Ben Mee...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Fails medical. He bleeds claret and blue instead of red. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what kind of plan they have for him and Foden. And I don't want any youth player nobody had heard of in the deal. They are going to play him as a number 8 instead of Gundogan.

And the £400 I pissed up the wall on him staying. Feeling all three of these too mate. Solidarity. Hope someone checks Sam Lee's hard drive soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) British record £100m is not to be sniffed at. Good deal for us for a player who misses 9/10 games a season. We will come out stronger as long as we invest well. Edited August 4, 2021 by jim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 The worst part of it is again being dictated by a member of an anti-competitive cartel, to just pick a player they don’t really need for money they shouldn’t have been allowed to spend. If we accept this, how will we ever, ever compete with them? Premier League football just feel utterly pointless right now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s going to love being a rotating 8, having his style drilled out of him, unable to be the show pony and slowing the game down. All for extra money and the billion dollar petro-dollar nationstate sports washing empire. If he leaves everything was hollow in his words.

We will come out stronger as long as we invest well. I know it's an English transfer record but I'd still say he is worth more than that. To me he ranks amongst the top 5 best players in the world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
