Hobsons Choice Posted June 30, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 30, 2021 56 minutes ago, Phil Silvers said: I agree and I was being ultra critical as we should be because for an hour we were very frustrated, as bad as Germany were we were not much better for an hour. We need to be better to beat France Belgium Italy and Spain cos France are out I'm not a Pickford fan but that was the best I've seen him so it's between him and Jack, who flipped the game on its head, for MOTM. Honestly as much as I love Mings it was Maguire stepping out of defence and linking up play that really helped us. Great display from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinker Posted June 30, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 30, 2021 Not sure if anyone has posted this , Jack was voted England's 2nd best player against Germany, after Pickford, by the BBC viewers "How you rated England's players in win over Germany" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think persuading someone is classed as deterring them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this exposure will persuade City to pay very big money for him. I want Kane to rediscover his form so City focus all attention on him. The goal last night should do him the world of good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Wainy316 Posted June 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) Coming out of Wembley yesterday everybody was singing his name. Heard some little cockney kids saying how great he is and that we scored as soon as he came on. The first true megastar I've seen at the Villa and he's home grown and one of our own. No amount of money Man City can throw at us is enough. Edited June 30, 2021 by Wainy316 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he continues to play well then City will be persuaded to bid more for him. So, let's get him to sign the contract NOW, so even if he does play well and City decide they would pay more for him and meet our asking price, it'll be irrelevant because he's signed the new contract already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 The more I think, the more I get annoyed at this invented figure of £100m. As if we should be grateful that we could ever produce a player of that stature and therefore fold to the demands. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching this match and I'm surprised the Germans didn't take there chances, mean while though and Grealish is a sub.It's like we have nothing up front or even in the middle of the park. I still can't believe Phillips gets picked just like that, I mean he has had no where near the trouble Grealish has had at being picked. There's just something not right with how Southgate is with Grealish They play different positions. Phillips' position isn't as stacked as Jack's and Phillips' has been excellent in this tournament. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His objective market value is way higher than £100m, but to us he's literally priceless, as no player we wouldn't be able to replace his overall impact, no matter how much we spent.

Ahh. Makes sense now.....I think it's just the mention of city is starting to grate. The thing is he's got 4 years left on his current deal. There is no need to worry if we don't try to sell him. @Vive_La_Villa My bad for misreading your post. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you want to persuade city to anything other than F*** off?! We've got our own club to think about, flogging the crown jewels shouldn't be considered never mind encouraged. I used the wrong word. What I meant is it if he plays well they could decide to pay silly money for him and he could be off. I don’t want that to happen.

Tomaszk Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I was only invested at all for the 21 mins he was on the pitch. Obviously that was the only time we looked particularly good. Southgate doesn't deserve him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ender4 Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Stuff like this is slowly taking Grealish to the Beckham, Rooney, Ronaldo level of global stardom... https://metro.co.uk/2021/06/30/stormzy-celebrates-englands-euros-2020-victory-at-fans-house-party-14849393/ Quote Stormzy joined the masses in celebrating England’s epic victory against Germany at the Euro 2020 by randomly popping up at a fan’s house party. The Big For Your Boots rapper was spotted cheering on the England team at Boxpark Croydon during their big game, which resulted in Raheem Sterling, Harry Kane, Jack Grealish and co. leading us to the final 16 after winning 2-0. Showing his support in a Grealish #7 football shirt, Stormzy was in great spirits and joined in with the raucous celebrations as full-time was called and England went through to the next round.
