Nobody comes close to winning the title or the League Cup. I don't. Imagine if he'd gone to **** Liverpool. I'd have puked my guts out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've all been living and breathing Jack mania these past few years and now it's time to step back, regroup and find a new hero. 11 of them plus us lot actually. Let's move forward and focus on what we have not what we've lost. F*** haters and wind up merchants and Up The Villa! Still not letting go though? Thats like stalking your ex-wife after she ran off with a hunky neighbour. Its just not right and unhealthy for you sir. I actually feel the club can now spread it wings, the whole Jack-worship was beginning to get on my t*ts.

I wonder how a boyhood Villa fan would feel celebrating winning a title with City on the pitch at Villa Park.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, I'll still hold out for a last minute hitch. Otherwise I think we can build a bigger squad all round and we move on. I don’t think it matters one bit to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him leaving hurts, but let's not rewrite history. We know how good he is.

MaVilla Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 i do wonder if the club are actually very happy to let him go for 100m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strog Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Been a great player but pleased he’s moving on as it appears his head has been turned , whether this was over the summer or before. No player is bigger that the club. Invest the money well and prove we can do without Jack Grealish. UTV! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cb_82 Posted August 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2021 Final post on this thread from me..... Jack Grealish has been a brilliant player for Aston Villa and despite a lot of the drivel & rewriting of history being written on social media my mind isnt changed on that fact. Am I disappointed? Of course, he was only 12 months ago bought into the project but things changes and he has his motives and although I don't agree with them I wish him all the best before moving onto the thinking of the club that's been here for 140 years plus The future is bright, we have two of the best owners we could have, a solid squad of players, a season ticket waiting list of 15,000, our highest position in 10 years and a long term vision of where we want to be and although it may be a rocky few weeks I think we will be better in the long term for it and will be a much more balanced and rounded team. My advice.....Let this all blow over, save the bile for another day and lets talk on the other threads about the lads that want to be here for this season Up The Villa! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Paul33 Posted August 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2021 Never rated him anyway ...... dives too much, always injured, poor man's McGinn and I even heard from an ex-boyfriend of his that he is a bluenose and used to slap his granny all night to posters of Karen Brady. We can do a lot better than that ! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPAngel Posted August 4, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 4, 2021 I'm trying to put a positive spin on various areas of this deal and one thing I will say is that I hope we're never this reliant on one player again. If we were to (for example) bring in a great number 10 now, a front four of Bailey, Watkins, Buendia and a newbie in whatever configuration Deano sees fit would still be superior to Grealish, Barkley, Traore and Watkins. We need to use the money to elevate key areas of our squad as opposed to having £100m sat out on the left wing with a gigantic disparity in the level of quality of his understudy. It would also be nice to have someone who doesn't miss 10-15 games per season for having some weird shin injury that no one at the club is willing to talk about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KangarooVillan Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 58 minutes ago, Stevo985 said: Well to stick to your analogy, the new company contains some of the best workers in the world at the job, including your idol who you based your entire career around emulating. The company regularly win all of the awards which you are a direct part of. The company is run by one of the best bosses of all time, with top notch facilities. The new company also has loads of those fans that the old company has. And yes, they're giving you a huge pay rise. As someone who’s working at a company that is in the process of doubling in size - it **** sucks. Culture is dying, becoming harder and harder to have decent relationships with people across the organisation, egos flying left right and centre. Will be going to a smaller org in the next 12 months.
