The fact is that they will now realise the value of that asset (in cash terms) and can now choose to invest it more broadly. Best example - we just avoided relegation, and then sold David Platt. We reinvested well, and finished 2nd. It can be done. Football was a very, very different game back then 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrannyLee1968 Posted August 4, 2021 Visiting Supporter Share Posted August 4, 2021 https://theathletic.com/news/jack-grealish-transfer-man-city-aston-villa/mNpZh59DIar2 Where will he fit in at City? Sources close to City manager Pep Guardiola indicate that Grealish will feature as a No 8, rather than as a left winger as he has done at Villa in recent seasons. It’s thought that Grealish prefers playing centrally and that he will be rotated with Ilkay Gundogan in City’s midfield. Grealish’s creativity is a huge upside and he will be expected to continue in the same vein as last season — the Villa man was second in the Premier League for both chances created and chances created from open play, despite making just 26 appearances. City expect Bernardo Silva to leave the club this summer and while the two are different types of players, Silva’s departure opens up a slot for Grealish in Guardiola’s rotation.

foreveryoung Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Fair play to Sinclair on talkshite, usually defends City all the way, but saying paying 100 million especially in a pandemic is not good for football at all. I totally agree, it's gone too far for me now, is there no end!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Just now, HanoiVillan said: 'Small time' is caring either way to be honest. The fact is we might as well have been playing a different sport than Man City since 2008. They aren't our rivals and never will be, so whether our season is a success or not is almost completely orthogonal to whether he does well at City. You're not wrong. They might be our rivals at some point, but only if we become them. You either get picked apart peice by peice by the clubs who buy the league, or you turn into the thing you despise. Call me a drama queen, but I think this was the final nail in my interest in top flight football, I'll be down in the terraces of my local team before I bother with the PL, I think. It's shite football, but at least it's not a polished business facade masqarading as sporting competition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait till he's gone now. I've said many times I'll respectively wish him well and im grateful for his service at the club but when he rocks up at VP next season, im hoping we absolutely smash him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Makes you wonder if he made the decision in the last 24 hours. He’s embarrassed the club and the fans. A pro yes, but certainly not going to be fondly remembered. Took the easy route. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
