Rumours are we are prepared to offer Jack 200k a week if true just shows the owners intent and adds 25% on any incoming players wage demands.200k a week at villa wow.

It also suggests, if true, that Villa may seriously fear there is a growing possibility that they may struggle to hang on to their captain.

Although there are so many stories doing the rounds, there is enough consistent evidence to point towards various enquiries being genuinely advanced in pursuit of new attack minded players, although seemingly not for out and out strikers. At this stage, I would imagine we are only planning for a couple of deals to actually come off, but perhaps other possibilities are being exercised, just in case the JG contingency plan is needed.

The sooner we know the Captain’s plans, the better. The new season is almost upon us and we have other pressing decisions to sort out elsewhere in the squad. A big influx of new faces at this stage of pre-season is never ideal.

Unlike many supporters, who cling to the image of Jack as the messiah, I don’t see him as the only route to success, but do appreciate he has qualities that would be difficult to replace. If he were to leave, I would miss him, but not all the hype that surrounds him.

He’s not the messiah, he’s just a very naughty boy

UTV.

What ever happens Ally we will have to always look on the bright side of life😁.


4.) 25 Jul 2021 11:56:48
Good analogy AJ.


5.) 25 Jul 2021 23:28:29
I think we need to look at the bigger picture when we talk about losing Jack though - The reality is he is our only genuine superstar, replacing Jack is a massive undertaking as AJ mentioned as we will be replacing his impact on the team across 2 or 3 players, and that's just on the pitch. He's also a huge draw for Aston Villa, both from an incoming player perspective and, I'd hazard a guess, from a commercial one too so. Also, and probably most importantly, selling (or losing) Jack Grealish at this stage of the Villa rebuild sends a really bad message, it tells the world that Villa (despite having multi billionaire owners) still lose their best players when the top clubs come calling, and that's something we will struggle to come back from. Aston Villa will survive if Jack leaves, but I'm firmly in the "Messiah" (tongue in cheek of course) camp, I think losing Jack would be an astronomical blow to Aston Villa.

Seems that Grealish may well be leaving the building. If it comes to pass, it will be disappointing, but not really that surprising.

Some of the statements of denial, dismay, self-harm etc. on Twitter have passed the obsessional stage. Almost a replay of Beatlemania (for the younger ones, think No Direction, sorry One Direction) . However, as somebody else recently and far more realistically said ‘he is just a very naughty boy’.

Maybe I have been around the block too many times, but I am sure we will find alternative means to progress. Yes, we may be facing a set back, after potentially losing two big enticing names within a week, but there are still a lot of positive elements within the club to help get us right back on track.

Buendia might just become our key player, even before he has had chance to take to the pitch in anger.

What do people think about the Diego Costa rumours after the back and forth with Terry? Surely he wouldn't come in to be back up of he came at all.

Haha i wouldn't be stoked at having to play with 10 men every other week when he gets sent off 🤣.


2.) 01 Oct 2020 16:53:54
No thanks DC, I hate liabilities mate. 😇.


3.) 01 Oct 2020 17:28:33
Definitely not happening.


4.) 01 Oct 2020 18:05:35
If Mendes is his agent could it possibly be Cavani? Just putting it out there 🤔.

Anyone else heard we have enquired about tripier's availability from spurs don't see it happening myself but would like it to.

villaDC

1.) 17 Aug 2016 19:25:19
Would be a great move for us, or Yedlin, 1 of them 2, and a striker and our buisness should be done

UTV.


2.) 17 Aug 2016 19:26:37
wouldnt say no to that but feel if they was loaning him out would e to a prem team.


3.) 17 Aug 2016 20:55:30
we definitely need a right back and i would say a striker i thing villa need to go 4 ings on loan show some ambition at the moment I don't think we have got enough goals in the team to get promoted ayew just looks like an average championship player we could do with nahki Wells! bad result yesturday because i can't see us beating derby hope iam wrong tho.


4.) 17 Aug 2016 21:45:32
I think burnley would happily take trip and Ings so feel we have little chance
Would love both.


5.) 17 Aug 2016 22:59:45
Even though they are premier league this season do you actually think they're a more attractive option?
No sass, genuine question.


6.) 18 Aug 2016 07:21:10
Get Traore off the wage bill and GET BENTEKE!

UTV.

I see Rashica has joined Norwich for under £10m as a replacement for Buendia. Hope he feels silly turning the Villa down now and enjoys the relegation scrap he was so desperate to a avoid last season.

Very happy with the transfers so far but feel like we need to do some wheeling and dealing now to flesh out the squad a bit maybe a few older more experienced heads on shorter contracts as we are clearly trying to build for the future but maybe lack a bit of experience and that in game tactical nous to see games through. If we could get a couple of let's say £5m signings in the likes of Craig Dawson or someone of that ilk. What do you guys think?

This is another reason to take most of what you read with a pinch of salt. Not even a whisper about what is a biggest signing of the season. Great ambitious owners doing the business behind the scenes. UTV.

3 signings Bruce has made so far totaling around 7 mill and all look good acquisitions hopefully the sign of things to come in this and future transfer windows. Think it shows Bruce's player and league knowledge and the board getting the deals for the right price. Feeling positive.

Seems to me that as soon as matey james signs for Barnsley then Houlahan will then be unvielled as a villa player.


2.) 25 Jan 2017 20:38:32
Hourihan


3.) 25 Jan 2017 20:53:15
Agreed. Good purchase price but they are all on £25k+ a week


 

 

22 Aug 2016 05:44:34
Would anyone else try a loan offer for Jay Rodriguez definitely feel he has quality and something to prove.

villaDC

1.) 22 Aug 2016 07:25:03
Good player 👍🏻

UTV.


2.) 22 Aug 2016 09:05:31
great player but with only 3 strikers at the club unless they buy a new lad i can't see this one happening.

Reports saying yedlin available for 3m seems like a good deal to me.

He is the eternal gamble that never paid off imo and I don't think he would stand the physicality of the championship people would target him all day long.
