Transfer Rumour Jack Grealish




Have they agreed to pay two thirds of his wages whilst playing at a rival club ?

If he does leave he’ll go abroad
First of all we are not a rival club by any stretch.
Secondly, that’s how a lot of these big salary loans work. Better shifting a percent of the salary than playing full whack for a disgruntled influential bench warmer
 
In his last season with villa he scored 6 goals and had 10 assists. He's clearly a good footballer and clearly has an end product.

I'm not sure how anyone would go about rating his time at Man City, a team who always have huge amounts of possession, against who teams sit deep and where his role has strictly been stretching a defense sitting deep and then recycling to the midfield.

He's definitely not worth what he's paid or what, I suspect, Man City value him at but he's definitely a good player at the right price.

I expect he'll end up with a club who have more money and more ability to take the risk on his cost and I'd expect him to succeed again.
 
Not that this will come about regardless but
The below is from Bluemoon forum and part of a post on the discussion of the merits of Grealish and the influence he had over the treble winning team.


You’re mistaking lack of purpose for “discipline.” Grealish often kills promising transitions, plays safe when boldness is required, and avoids risk to the point of irrelevance. Opponents know he’s going to cut inside and recycle — there’s no edge, no unpredictability, no chaos — nothing to fear or worry about. And oh, we have been doing death by a 1000 cuts way before Grealish played in a City shirt!


Please. Don't try to sprinkle in nostalgic historical fluff to defend a modern luxury player in an era of ruthless efficiency. This isn’t about falling out of favor — it’s about never delivering enough to justify favor in the first place.

“armchair experts”? The same “experts” you mock were the ones calling for Doku when Grealish was sleepwalking through games. The same ones demanding a more dynamic left side to match our evolution and change the game. Guess what? They were right. You speak of "armchair experts", while you pose as one yourself, that is very rich!

We’re not talking about “Hello Magazine” — we’re talking about production, bravery, and technical output at the very top level. Grealish hasn’t delivered it consistently or enough, full stop.

So no, we don’t owe him a round of applause for existing in a treble-winning squad. And no, we’re not going to silence criticism because he held width and passed sideways.

This strikes me as a type of merson type signing in the swan song of his career.
Middlesbrough, Villa and Portsmouth fans loved him playing there, but he was shifted on from Arsenal.
My guess is he could do a good job for us.
