Zatman Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 If you dont think teams will be after him in summer then you are either naive or dont know about football. In recent seasons shit like Cameron Jerome, Matt Jarvis and Robert Snodgrass get distributed around Premier League clubs. Jack has more talent than these lads combined 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thabucks Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 People are really are having a laugh aren't they £5 mill for Grealish are you guys serious?! In 96 we paid 4 million for Sasa Curcic, we spent 8.5 million on Reo-Coker 9.5mill on N'Zogbia. Patrick Roberts cost Citeh 8-10 million. Brentford want close 8-9 million for judge. Grealish's unfulfilled potential is worth 12 mill at least even after this season. Sterling at £50 mill ffs To give away one of our graduates again on the cheap would be an insult. Boys has class, maybe a suspect work ethic who knows, we know he has made bad choices this season. Before writing him off let's see how he does next season. If we are talking about his off the field misdemeanours this time next year then maybe £5 mill is realistic but please come on. Let's support the lad before condemning him to the scrap heap for peanuts after 1 bad season. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got a lot to learn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is one of the laziest, most overrated players to come out of Villa Park in years. In addition to that, his attitude stinks and his off the field antics are further proof that he just isn't the player we had hoped. He never will be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supervillan78 Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 It'll be foolish to let Grealish go at this stage of his career. He can be a massive player for us over the next few season's...if he can be arsed of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn1982 Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Why would we even consider selling him? His season has been disrupted by bad behaviour, injuries and choosing his allegiance this would hamper any experienced player never mind one that's only just finding his feet. The 2nd season is normally the toughest as you're not the unknown player so people target you so it was always going to be tough which he hasn't himself with but neither has the team helped him. There's still a good maybe quality player in there which I think will flourish in a team that's actually winning games. Hopefully that's us next season!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been tipped for big things from a very young age. Why would we throw that away the first time it doesn't go right for him. Now he's to blame for that as well but we should be looking to get the best from him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post VillaChris Posted March 19, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted March 19, 2016 How many of these posters on here saying we should sell Grealish for peanuts.....are then going on the Albrighton thread and banging their fists at how we let go of Albrighton on a free?

Way too early to be saying that mate. He didn't come into the side until the back end of last season under Sherwood where he made quite an impact. Since then he was a pratt over the summer, saw the manager that had a lot of faith in him leave 10 games into the season and has had a number of injuries. The lad is 20 years old. Has made under 20 league starts for us. To be writing him off would be madness. He has something you can't teach - natural ability. What he lacks a good manager can instil in him - better work rate on the pitch, cut out the off the field crap etc. I wouldn't even consider letting him go. Not a chance. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Grealish needs to stay next season, hopefully he won't have the likes of Gabby and Richards at the club to distract him from his job, playing football. He's had an appalling season, thanks to his off-field antics, niggly injuries and immaturity. He obviously has the talent but IMO is too young and not mature enough to handle the fame, money and expectation. A season with us in the Championship, surrounded by better motivated players could see him reignite his career before he becomes the next Michael Johnson... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) I Wouldn't sell but i guess it depends on what the offer is. Every player has a price and if Lerner likes that price then we will continue with our well established yearly tradition of selling the clubs best players. Lerner has a check list in his bedside draw of whom he can asset strip each season. Grealish, Gil, Ayew are the only players we have that will fetch over £10m (Adama & Amavi may also after a season under there belts) The other 20+ we would be lucky to scrape upto £5m a piece.

VillaChris Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 I wouldn't pay 1m for Gil, most overrated player I've seen on these forums for a long long time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanted by two national teams and highly rated and known throughout the game. Only foolish villa fans would give up on his potential after one bad spell in an injury hit season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerner has never sold players for the money so you've nothing to base that on but Grealish and Gil wouldn't command anywhere near £10m one because he has hardly played the other because he flatters to deceive. Grealish should be given a full chance next year to show his head is in the right place as he has undoubted talent but that's not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players (supposed) values have risen sharply. Lewis Grabban cost 8 mill FFS. Tom Ince 4.75 rising to 6 mill. Yes I do believe he is worth 10-12 mill at present given the amount of money available from the tv deal. His stats this season are poor no denying but our team is shit, he's been injured and reprimanded for his poor behaviours. Ross Barkley's 2nd seasons states were played 29 2 goals 1 assist. But yeah let's give him away for pittance cause a young lad in his second season has performed poorly and made a few dubious decisions. It's not like frank lampard & John terry never made a mistake when younger. People can change and learn from their mistakes. Before writing him off let's see shall we? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
