Yes, it's wonderful. When we wonvthe league and became champions of Europe, our best players like Sid and Morley were nowhere near Jack's popularity and value outside of stadiums.

One hell of a comment and one I never thought I would agree with as a lad proud as punch with the number 8 Mum had sown on my new Villa umbro shirt, sorry Brian, I genuinely do feel bad agreeing but I am sure Jack makes you smile as much as the rest of us Edited December 23, 2020 by Follyfoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Willard Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 A Liverpool friend of mine messaged me this morning that Liverpool are in for Grealish and it's doing all the rounds in the supporter groups. I just laughed and told him Liverpool can't afford him. I'm not the deluded fan am I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know what the difference in prize money is between 7th and 14th as I would imagine thats the difference between us with & without Jack. I believe its £2.2millon per position this season. 7 places higher would be £15m extra TV money. From 17th last season to 7th this season would be an extra £22m in TV merit money.

I'm not the deluded fan am I? every player has his price, but it would probably require a 9 figure sum before we even consider selling him. i don't see utd or liverpool spending that.

Zatman Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 For me Jack needs to do one thing to be the complete player, if he can work on his damn set piece delivery he be perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way his game progresses at such a fast rate reminds me of Messi, he decided the next thing to improve was his free kicks and suddenly he was scoring them every other week. As for Jack leaving, I can only see it happening if Dean left and got replaced by someone with a less enjoyable and expressive style of football.

TRO Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 (edited) His value to us is difficult to compute...the league placings is just one.....its the attraction of coming here to play next to him, too...from would be recruits. There are so many factors of knock on effect, that Jack creates. these claims from clubs are just wishful thinking. our owners will build around him, and he knows that. relax and enjoy the ride.

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Priceless is the only way to describe it. No one club is attached to one player like Villa is to Jack. Its a beautiful thing. There would be a neverending mourning process involved if he left. It would feel like a family member dieing. We fit like a glove and vice versa. Never can be sold. Most exciting player ever in my lifetime at Villa. Im 33 and I mean that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post A'Villan Posted December 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 23, 2020 Aston Villa is the best and biggest club in the second biggest city by population in the land. Our history is long, and accomplished, a mainstay of the highest level, and it rivals the best. The amount of times we've ended the year as best in the competition numbers in double digits. Grealish dreamed of us his whole way up. Every step of the way. Why not see if he has it in him to live the ultimate glory? We've got the fanbase, maybe not exposure Manchester United has from SAF's reign, but it's an army nonetheless. More will come. We've got two owners who are successes in sports business. One being a catalyst in the rise of a rock bottom club becoming title contenders, the other, main stake holder in Adidas. My lord, Grealish, take us to the promised land! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
