pintpotvilla Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Fantastic news for Jack, well deserved, but i still can't forgive Southgate for not picking him in the first place!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KentVillan Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) Finally. He only needs 20 mins at the end of a game and it'll be in his hands. Edit: still think we need to publish the VillaTalk Gareth Southgate Facts book in time for Christmas.

Tomaszk Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 The fun will likely continue when Southgate is stubborn and refuses to play him anywhere but on the wing. I think he would lose plenty of effectiveness playing on the right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making comments about himself and Villa fans rather than about Jack's performance over the last year. Glad that Jack has got the call up but could the manager make it any more clear that he doesn't want him. Just fire to Jack I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 20 minute cameo as a sub in which he basically wins the game, and then dropped for evermore. If he has another great season like he just has then there will be huge amounts of pressure on Southgate to have him on that plane heading to the Euros imo.

rbcuk Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Deserved call up, but knowing Southgate he won’t even get off the bench or make the match day squad, as it took players to drop out to finally get called up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually sort of hope that happens because then the media will be aware its personal and go for his head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted August 31, 2020 Moderator Share Posted August 31, 2020 His call up (in place of Winks ) just makes Southgate look daft in my opinion. You just know he is going to leave him on the bench and not play him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Seeing Jack set up Harry Kane for a goal, hopefully can soon cross that off the bucket list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenjiOgiwara Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Well as an England international that's easily another £ 40 million on his price tag. Great stuff for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good performance would mean all Gareth Southgate's cheerleaders in the press insisting that Grealish needs to start, and he'd struggle to resist that pressure. His entire managerial strategy is to keep Henry Winter happy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
