Moving to another club, even the so called big six is not going to guarantee anymore than that anyway. Foden, Sancho couldn't get minutes either. Unfortunately, that is how it is.

Yeah I agree, just saying that sadly Grealish's best years are going to be wasted for England because of that dinosaur of a manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see him being here beyond the World Cup. He's never going to get a similarly lucky draw. Just doesn't happen 3 years in a row. We'll go out in the knock out rounds, quarters at best.

It's just hyped up by paranoid posters and piss ants on talk sport. Jack Grealish is staying with Villa. End of story. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s had a years of it himself with Zaha. Shame Zaha always publicly comes out and says he wants out though, but Villa are showing much more ambition than Palace so there we are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa won’t have a say in the matter because they only stayed up because goal line technology failed. They also fluked the European Cup with a lucky goal off the post and UEFA are considering a motion to cancel the result and award the trophy to Man City. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all the way from Jamaica. This shit is proper winding me up! I think the trouble is a lot of fans just see the story that the mighty City want a Villa player and just assume that they will get what they want. Let’s be honest if City came in for say Cash or Mings, they might right, but Jack is completely different for a number of reasons. Apart from being a Villa fan he is the captain and the face of the brave new future that the owners are trying to build. What is Jack worth as player? I don’t know so let’s pluck £120m out the air just as an example. Jack the player is worth £120m, but the image of club, the sponsors that want to work with the club because of the superstar playing for us, the statement to the fans and the wider football world by keeping him….how much is that worth? It’s not just what he does on the pitch, it’s the value off it. And that’s the reason he will not be sold. I’m genuinely not concerned at all by the rubbish in the rags, he’s going nowhere.

He promised not to use any of the following phrases; ”I decided to stay at a big club.” “Have you won the European Cup?” ”There was no such thing as a Manc until a Scouser sh&gged a pig”. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Delphinho123 Posted July 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 18, 2021 The most tedious thing I read, absolutely everywhere, is when people claim he has no ambition if he doesn’t join Man City. What is ambition? What is his ambition? Is ambition needing to win medals at a club you have no affinity to? What if ambition is trying to push your boyhood club on into the top 4/6? The way the media, fans, clubs talk about ambition really needs to change and that goes for every club. Maybe players like Phillips, Rice and Grealish are happy where they are? Just once I’d like to read an article where the word ambition isn’t linked to winning trophies. If the media desperately keep pushing for every half decent player to join one of the ‘big 6’ then it’s just a closed shop and football remains boring. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Wainy316 Posted July 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 18, 2021 Which one constitutes being ambitious? Attempting to win a trophy at the club you love and using your ability to help drag them up to your level or Being parachuted into a squad that has already won the league before a ball is even kicked, with absolutely zero soul and romanticism. Whilst spending half the time picking splinters out of your arse (even DeBruyne is rotated). 22 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
