brommy Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 10 minutes ago, MessiWillSignForVilla said: He strikes me as the kind of guy that would absolutely hate training and would rather have 5 hours of matches instead. I can see him much preferring any training with the ball at his feet but to be honest it doesn’t look like he misses out on the physical effort of non-football work. From memory, his mindset changed during his recuperation from his kidney injury where he vowed to come back stronger and more able to protect himself from hard contact.

jim Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 To be taken with a pinch: Talking to a chap I know earlier and he said his daughter is a close friend of one of Jack's best friends and he has told her he is 100% leaving and even showed her a text message that his mind is made up. I don't know the content of said message but make of it what you will. I know I have been vocal since the start of the Euro's that I think he is off but just passing on what I have been told. Might well be total horse manure as I don't know the credibility of this guy's daughter but he is a ST holder for 25 years and he is gutted so no reason he would lie.

I mean, I believe anything is possible. But I think he'll want to go if a deal can be sorted with Man City. I just don't see him rejecting them if the deal is right personally. Hope i'm very wrong though!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You love pushing these narratives the last week. Are you looking for vilification if he leaves? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If definite knowledge of his decision has got to the stage of mates of mates getting text messages saying that his mind is made up, there is no way one of those friends of friends haven't thought to try and get a quick twenty grand by selling a screenshot of it to The Sun. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
