I've been a City fan since 1968 when I was 5 years old, not one of these bandwagon jumpers from the last 10 years. ..and I will post on other threads through the season, especially when we play each other, and I'll be the first City fan here to congratulate you if you win against us. I have a mate who I work with who is a Villa fan (another ex-pat englishman) so discuss your team often. I just wish you all the best for the season (except against us), hope its a good one for you guys. About as genuine as Grealish’s quote last season.

AJ Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 With the extra pay and less game time, I hope he gets fat and useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I'm genuinely hopeful that we become a much, much better team now that our entire strategy isn't "pass to Jack". Especially with his habit of missing a third of a season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tayls Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 He’s going to sign for them and win silverware in the space of 3 days or whatever it is… and City will be praised or creating a superstar… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Been a hero for us for a long time but as soon as you leave you are one of them. I’ve no interest in the super nobs. I used to love the CL but it’s become more and more an irrelevance over the years. The only time I’ll see him play is against us. Spend this money wisely seen so many teams go backwards rather than forwards with this kind of cash. UTV really looking forward to the new season and a hopefully more rounded side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daggy_333 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I hope when it's confirmed the club give it a one line statement. Something along the lines of 'Jack Grealish has today left the club to join Manchester City'. Nothing else, no fan fare, no video message, just 1 line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTed Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Right - this is spoiling my holiday which ends on Friday so I’m leaving the phone in the safe for the day now. Enjoyed the tongue and cheek comments from you all, it’s really made me chuckle. As many have said, there’ll be an Aston Villa long after Grealish. Villa Forever. Enjoy your day everyone except the Man City fan who joined today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Benteke arguably have a similar impact? I think Mellberg, Taylor, even Barry are a couple of legend rungs ahead. Steady on, I knows he’s dumped on us but he’s left more of a legacy than Neil 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV82 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 13 minutes ago, Johnnyp said: Silly. If Grealish was moving from Leeds or West Ham to City you wouldn't bat an eyelid and you'd probably say he has to go to win trophies. You've the emotional connection to the player because it's our club and it's clouding your judgement. Don't make it personal. Buendia bangs in a hatrick next week you'll forget fairly quick. Normally I'd agree with you but the bloke bleeds claret and blue. This just hits different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickjacobjr Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 He should turn off all his comments when he posts his leaving message on social media think he will get a fair back lash his legend status dies today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I don't understand why he would want to move,I live in Ireland and growing up it was my dream to play for villa, playing for villa for a local lad should be the top of the pyramid and the ultimate achievement, who cares about winners medals for some other club when you can look back on your career when you have legendary status at the club you love. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Never thought i'd feel as gutted as i do to be fair. I can't help but feel betrayed and a bit sick. Will obviously get over it, but without sounding dramatic, feels a bit " empty ". This is a HUGE blow, and should have been done ages ago, if it was on the cards. Our whole pre season prep will have been messed up, morale toyed with. After some progress, we might now have to go through another season of transition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
