Even if we were in the PL as a mid table side, we’d still lose players to CL sides. I don’t begrudge him a move, and I’ll be really pleased for him if it all pans out. We will eventually lose him, Spurs would do to. We need him this season, he needs to settle more, then if we go up he could stay another year and then go by mega money. If we do the process well we could build a proper team. I would go to say Jack is the difference between promotion or stay in this league. Now we could tell Levy pay what we want or just try somewhere else. Jack is still gonna hold his value even with one year in his contract. I dont think he would go for free or refuse to sign a new deal with an agreement to go. Even the snake has done that. Who would we get in the championship to be with us once we go up? 30m could be nothing if it used badly down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villarule123 Posted July 22, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted July 22, 2018 Grealish sounds like what I hope I'd be like if I was a Villa fan playing for Villa. Only he's got £60k being waved in front of him for real... Go on Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your memory is correct, with the owners being Eggert Magnusson and a consortium backed by the Icelandic bank Landesbanki that later went into liquidation in the wake of the Icelandic financial crisis... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yes, that’s right I recognise the name Eggert now you mention it, and the bank connection. The old grey matter still kind of works for me then.

I suppose it would make sense if his dad wanted him to stay. He will go if the rails in London. Keep him close to home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fight Like Lions Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 53 minutes ago, MessiWillSignForVilla said: Isn't his agent his Dad? Or did he change agent? He’s been with Jonathan Barnett since 2015 and he isn’t normally the type of agent who would encourage a player to stay so this doesn’t make sense. Jack would get a signing on fee of around 10% of the fee and his agent would take a decent chunk of that. If he’s reluctant to recommend the move it can only be down to reservations of how much game time he might get and whether it would affect his England chances in the next couple of years.

Because an Egyptian multi billionaire has invited him and his wife on a long string of unbelievable entertainment in some of the world's most luxurious accommodations, the kind of places where guests are invited to high end parties where they are showered with gifts like Gucci handbags for the wife and rolex watches for the gents. All for free, because they are now getting a taste of how multi billionaires roll. Maybe he might like Jack hanging around for a bit longer, you know to help him develop.
