What would have been a kick in the teeth would be if he had gone to a shit club like spurs. If he goes, he’s going for trophies. What would be a crying shame is if a talent like that won nothing in his career. I would love for a Villa fan to win the ballon d’or. If he goes I hope he absolutely lights the world up. I wish he’d stay, but if anyone has earnt this move, it’s him. I for one will not have anyone saying anything bad about him. I can't agree with this at all. Maybe if we were still in the Championship being run by chancers, but if he wins trophies at Man City he'll be doing so at the expense of Aston Villa. If he goes I hope he doesn't win a single club trophy in his career. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season, United. He said it himself (didn't name the club), but he was deliberating on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, he is under contract. Which means that regardless of how much he want’s to go, the final decision to accept a bid rests with the board. True but once a player head has been turned , it can ruin his performances and impact the spirit in the squad . If he wants to go let him go under our terms.

guyavfc Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 So it seems like every single person on here is now resigned to him leaving. We haven’t even accepted a bid yet. Keep the faith. If he’s truly a Villa fan then he’s staying. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren’t going to accept 100m, while it’s a British transfer record losing Jack is worth far more on and off the pitch. I think City are testing the waters and we know our Owners and Management are savvy and want to keep him. I think we’ll offer Jack a massive contract and he’s happy here. He’s not going to force a move, this would one of the most difficult decisions ever for him but we aren’t going to get to that stage which he’ll probably be relieved about. It makes no sense for Villa to sell him, it would set us back too much from many angles and as I said Jack won’t force it so I expect next week we’ll see a smiling Jack signing an extended contract. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like we've had like 5 bids of our own rejected this summer. Apparently NSWE are going to fold on a 90m + the City version of Aaron Ramsey offer.

sidcow Posted July 30, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 30, 2021 Do people really think that Jesus is going to relish coming to a non champions league team? And as someone else said his wages are going to be ludicrous. They haven't got any other strikers. It makes zero sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Afro Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Reading this thread and some of the rubbish on Twitter is enough to make any player want to leave our magnificent club. It’s also enough to convince any potential new players to go somewhere else. People need to grow up and get a grip. Jack will probably stay. If he doesn’t he will leave for a huge amount of cash and have been a massive part of helping us back to where we belong. Some people need to stop acting like jilted teenagers and enjoy these issues. Can you not remember three years ago when we nearly ceased to exist? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ll reflect back on this in a few months time when Buendia shows himself to be the better player and think, actually Jack, I wish you well.

I mean it was pretty obvious the issue was being played down a few months ago. Yep. Hopefully. The whole ordeal was bizarre and I always felt in the games he played for England after that injury, he just ambled around and played within himself. If it's an injury that will be with him his entire career, we could do a lot worse than to sell for £100m+. Man City have the squad to manage that injury, we don't.

StanBalaban Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 We've got a game tomorrow. You would think some Sky bod will want to take the opportunity to ask Deano about the bid? Be interesting to hear what he say? Also, has Pep commented at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's literally just someone in this thread saying "someone sent me a WhatsApp message". @StanBalaban is a great poster, not a knock on him at all, but people are losing the plot actually discussing the logistics of this.

mrchnry Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Just on SSN that the offer was made a few days ago and as it stands we don't want to sell. It's all up to Grealish, champions league with City or stay and be a Villa legend and probably never play in the champions league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I feel like the people most insistent that Grealish is staying will be the ones most scathing of him if he leaves, already seen signs of that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
