Living in cloud cuckoo land, 10-15m tops imo, potential is there but less proven then the lad at Norwich who they want £20mil for. Cool story bro.

Last time I checked they could be successful in midfield for another 10 odd years without needing to add. I can't blame them for coming in for him, Jack's class and is worthy of a future at any club. Just shits me if we're going to lose a bit of Aston Villa's pride to a Spurs team that is competing in a way I imagined for us. Just highlights the misery of recent years, and I say that also being grateful and optimistic for the club. We're not gaining ground losing players like Jack to what should be our immediate rivals. Especially if our concerns are financial rather than how the player fits. That's no longer football but enterprise and commodity. Yep....Its predatory. and thats where we have landed ourselves.

Maybe I am looking into this too much but him and Terry reaction after the play-off defeat seemed to be resigned to not playing here next season. Maybe players were informed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREAT_BEARD_OF_ZEUS Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 If Jack goes (as now looks certain) then Xia is dead to me. There's no way back... Ever. I don't care what he says or does beyond this point. All he had to do was manage the club properly and the lad would've stayed another season. Sell up now Tony because Villa Park will never forgive you for selling it's favourite son, simply to bail out your greed and stupidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 It seems such a long time ago that thinking selling Grealish would solve all of our financial problems. Oh to be back in those innocent times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Grealish, said after we played you "i wish we had Grealish to bring on to replace Pablo" after Pablo went off. Id prefer Grealish to Saiz, just think the valuation was ridiculous, not just Grealish, in general English player valuations are mad imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hogan & McCormack for c 12mill a piece....are the ones that stick in my craw.....However, one does have a go. 24 mill we could do will right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hindsight is a wonderful thing i suppose, over priced but had they done what was expected would have seemed a bargain. Where even is McCormack anyway now? He must be on a fair wage to.
