I'd happily never see his face again. I didn’t fawn over him. In fact I implied that he wasn’t worthy of being called a legend. Yet, if Jack leaves now Gabby will have double the number of goals, more assists and 3 consecutive 6th place finishes. My whole point was to discuss what makes a legend vs just a very very good player that moved on to greener pastures? Benteke was brilliant for us. I wouldn’t call him a legend.

Legend is the elite though, Hutton for example be a cult hero, Gabby probably too.

KentVillan Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 If there's a release clause, then I think these are the possibilities: City haven't actually met the release clause. Either the £100m is too low, or it's structured in such a way that it doesn't meet the requirements. City think they've met the release clause, but our lawyers think they can challenge it in some way. City have met the release clause, but Jack isn't as committed to the move as City think. Sam Lee is a lying rollneck word removed What do we think in terms of most/least likely? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

est1874 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Really don't understand how this can be dragging on any further. First league game kicks off in less than 12 days and we're no closer to knowing whether our captain, talisman, best player by a country mile is staying or going. The fact that it still seems 50/50 is mad. Surely he needs the comfort of clarity himself, as does everyone at the club? It's all very strange. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me legend status can one of many components or a couple of them. Gabby wasn’t a legend. Jack is on his way to legend status but not there yet. Tayls wasn’t a legend because he was the best player at the club but for many other reasons instead and thus he is a legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least I’m not alone in thinking this is truly bizarre. Have there ever been other transfer situations quite like this? Outside of Bruce screaming down the highway to save the Bryan deal, of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest that Grealish does know in his mind what his plan is. And Villa probably have a very good idea of that as well. No idea if that's going or staying though!

Again possible, but may just be that the clause /agreement said they would discuss things if £100m offer came in and Jack has already decided to go. His sources might not be as close to things as he thinks. If they are having the meeting now and he's off next thing we'll hear about is medical I guess. If he's staying there will probably be another day of contract stuff - maybe hear tomorrow? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our owners testicles are so big that they have signed grealish, are stringing city along to knacker their transfer plans and preparations which in turn, will unsettle Kane into industrial action against spurs - leaving them in a relegation scrap with arsenal I've heard this off someone who knows our owners testicles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
