sir_gary_cahill Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 The Sun is saying that if Manchester United buy Grealish, they’re going to play him on the right, I don’t know if this will suit him. At Villa, he is used to having the side built around him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) I think we should sell him If we can get big money. We need a team. Not just an individual when he decides to turn up. People talk about him like he’s Maradonna. Edit: I love watching him play and don’t want him to leave. He could also probably play for any team in the league. I just think we make him look better than he actually is and it wouldn’t be the end of the world if we sold him.

I see what you’re saying and I agree with you, it’s a team game after all, you need a squad in order to compete in the Premier League. Don’t get me wrong Grealish is brilliant but he can’t keep us afloat by himself, he’ll run out of steam eventually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhan_Zhuang Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 In light Covid-19 can anyone of Man. City, United, Liverpool or Chelsea really look to spend £100 million on Grealish? He's under contract and that's a reasonable transfer fee for our prized asset. Ed Woodward said yesterday huge transfer fees are not happening this summer at all. Barcelona are looking to part exchange players, Real Madrid too and they are two of the biggest football teams out here. I know he's an idiot but Daniel Levy also said something similar a few weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they're desperately still trying to flog the deal they have declared several times as done to save face In reality they have rashford on the left and Fernandes in the middle so unless they plan on putting rashford up top then jack doesn't fit in their team, if they get sancho then even more so But a grealish transfer is news and I don't think anyone else needs him either so other than utd they have no one to link him to, the price will put European teams off, Liverpool don't need him, City will replace silva with foden (but might sell sane) Leicester won't happen, Chelsea have pulisic and ziyech, spurs and arsenal have other problems and are out of it right now... I don't see a realistic suitor for him if I'm honest, I think he stays for thay reason Edited April 25, 2020 by villa4europe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone except McGinn has been incredibly reliant on letting Grealish being the man to move us on his own from defence to attack for about 4 years.

Good point , of course it trickles down so player we buy would be cheaper but if the big clubs wont spend then we end up taking a much lower fee or just holding on.

sidcow Posted April 26, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted April 26, 2020 If we get relegated we could get well and truly shafted here. No way will Grealish play another season in The Championship and no way we will get big money for him. We would have to sell him in the one year where no one is spending big. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would never begrudge anyone changing a job, but it would directly affect his legacy. He could be a great one. If he leaves now he's no different than Steven Davis or Liam Ridgewell to me. Obviously a better player, but that's it. Just another academy product. Then again if he stays he could be so much more. I agree with what you say and I often think this about footballers... Ok it’s a short career but you can be a legend for your club and then spend 50 years post career universally adored there, like Le Tissier. I suppose the flipside is once your form drops the fans want you gone (see Gabby) but still I see your point in many cases. I can’t agree though that Grealish is just another Davis or Ridgewell in terms of his achievements for us - he did drag us to promotion which in milestones for the club is fairly major. On another note - always liked Davis a lot and glad he had a good career after we moved him on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
