There's only big things that will happen Jack signs new villa Jack says he is staying Jack says he wants to go Man city make firm bid... Sorry I don't see any of those as baby steps - any movement one way or the other is a big deal I don’t disagree but we’ve had nothing so far. When I say small steps probably the wrong wording, I just mean any steps or first step of many steps that would be needed to complete the deal. Yes all big steps, I think I was trying to say nothing has happened yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 I'm not gonna kid myself that it definitely won't happen but it is in no way a done deal or even close to a done deal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarryOnVilla Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 (edited) The one thing that I find puzzling about all these rumours is the line about Man City are going to wait until after the euros to put in a bid. It’s a bit odd because, the euros didn’t stop them bidding for Kane. it feels like the press are biding some time to string this rumour out and get all their clicks and traffic Edited June 28, 2021 by CarryOnVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Every window, Jack is off. Jack's stock has risen quite alot in the last 12 months, and so the bullshit rumours come out stronger than ever. It is just that non Villa supporters hate seeing a player of Jack's talent playing for Villa, and want him to play at their shitty soulless club. It is just something we are going to have to get used to unfortunately. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more than that It generates traffic because it generates talk as to his value They post some bullshit about grealish to man City for £100m its amazing the range of fan bases that feel the need to chirp up as to how good he is and what they think he is worth As a Villa fan when you see the sun print something about sancho to utd for £100m do you feel the need to comment? Nope, that move doesn't have anywhere the level of general interest amongst neutral fans I could name at least 5 fan bases that would jump all over a grealish story that wouldn't be ours or the buying clubs 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hold on Southgate we will be there with a decent team for the Euros, hold on ref don't blow the whistle and start it yet, we just have to go round and collect them. Grealish you will be in the Greatest squad to ever walk the earth playing next to the likes of Himst, Pele, Summerbee, Osman, Moore, Ardiles, Micheal Kaine and Sylvester stallone and more. The Germans won't know what hit them. Edited June 28, 2021 by Dave-R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only have to go to the Arsenal forum and they basically say the reason we want ESR is to offer ESR Jack's place as a Guaranteed starter and that he will be the new Grealish . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mjmooney Posted June 28, 2021 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted June 28, 2021 For a while I've been worried because Jack hasn't come out and denied all these rumours and declared his love for the Villa. But then I thought about it. Consider this: NOT doing that, keeping the pot bubbling, is in Jack's own interest: it strengthens his (and his agent's) hand in negotiations over a new contract at Villa. And remember, this is not the Doug Ellis era, it's not going to jeopardise the club, we're talking about billionaire owners. Even more importantly, the constant speculation keeps his name all over the papers and the internet. Which in turn raises his profile in world football and helps with all the Beckhamesque sponsorship stuff. And the beauty of that is that it's actually a good thing for Villa. The higher Jack's profile gets, the more Villa are seen as a club on the rise. We want him to be a target for other clubs - the bigger clubs the better - it makes keeping him seem like a major coup, and all adds to our attractiveness to other world-class players. It's a win-win. Of course, I could be wrong, but I'm starting to think that both parties (Villa and Jack) know exactly what they're doing. And they're playing a blinder. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
