I am not. Leeds very clearly had no intention of selling to us and we played along. They kept moving the goalpost the higher our bid went. Southampton at least have said they are willing to negotiate. With Leeds I think it was personal for them.
I haven't seen a minute of this guy play, but I will definitely be furious if we don't sign the best 19 year old in world football!

He does seem very highly rated though, usually someone like Spurs comes in last minute to scupper the deal.
It’s more likely they are trying to get a replacement before they let him leave. As stated above, Southampton really want other teams to bid to push the price up and nobody can blame them.
It is rehashed old news. They asked weeks ago and Grealish’s reps said he had no interest. He wants Tuchel to be able to watch him regularly. It is all about trying to make the England squad for him. None of that means I have any idea or insight...
I'd have questionable desire if I played for that woeful Southampton team from last season and was watching my team get shellacked by all the teams except that time we beat dyche
Take your blue tinted glasses off. Our 80s achievements are about as relevant now as Wolves in the 50s. Club has not seriously competed in the league for nearly 40 years.
