Stevo985 Posted July 5, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted July 5, 2022 14 hours ago, Keyblade said: I think both statements are kind of cut and paste PR fluff to be honest. At least with Phillips he was namedropping certain people I guess, but with Jack's it looks like an agency template with Replace All function on the word "club" with "Villa". The only thing specific to Jack in that whole thing was the relegation. I think the only difference is Phillips plays for Leeds and Grealish played for Villa. If you swapped the statements I imagine the same people who hate Grealish's statement but like Phillips would still hate Grealish's statement. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However Alvarez could be vying for a place on the wing possibly on that left-side as Foden is right-sided. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 So what do we think this season make or break for him at city this year? He was a disaster for them last season and you expect far more for 100m than what he delivered. Maybe with a good pre season they will see a bettee version of jack. He certainly looked pretty average last season the times i saw him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Disaster is a bit strong, his goals and assists are down but I think his chances created stat is still ok If he clicks with Haaland he and City will be laughing, if he doesn't... The guy who's about to be the world best striker in the next 10 years will make or break the guy who's one of the best in the league for creating chances, it's a good combo on paper 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was half the price then no but for that sort of money and the return he has been a unbelievable flop 1st season. Thats not to say he wont get bettee as we all know his quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggest fee for a english premier league ever. If he went for like 20-30m you would say not a bad return. But 100m ergh no way good enough Coutinho did better in half a season in a worse team !

I actually know a buyer, he also gets to go on holiday with a few players all expenses paid.. He's just come back from Malaga, with Konsa and his crew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommo_b Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 What number was Grealish last season? Sure it was 9? Vaguely remember seeing video of him being all over the moon at being given the 9 shirt… Haaland has 9 this season, wonder what jacks number will be, 99?
