KangarooVillan Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 He’s staying. There’s literally no incentive for us to drag this out in the event that he’s leaving. Start of the season is 11 days away. Haggling over £10 million is chump change if we have a poor start to the season due to players have to bed in etc - especially with our fixtures. If the deal was done we’d want to wrap this up ASAP - take it to the bank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they could stop people from coming in the front (which is difficult) the Thames runs along the back so privacy is almost impossible.

You think they chose to go and train at this London camp to parade Jack Grealish? It was clearly a get away for some reason. Usually we go abroad so I imagine it's because we've been unable to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, this would have been booked a while ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve been very ambiguous to be honest. I greatly appreciate that about them. I prefer being kept on the dark instead having every little thing leaked. Comes across as much more professional, imo.

I said exactly the same yesterday that it will be a normal team training camp. You asked me what the alternative was. I gave you 1 out of the numerous possible options that would avoid the circus.

But that’s why I think it suggests the deal isn’t that close to happening. Otherwise they wouldn’t have him training there as he would be preparing for his new life in Manchester.
