Each to their own pal, but who's pandering, I'm simply stating my opinion! The guy wanted to stay and play for us and was forced out by Benitez. If Grealish does as much as Rodriguez did in his season for us I'll be very surprised, i'll be even more surprised if he manages to play more league games than him. He's had one half decent season in the last 5 years.
Forced out by Benitez? You really think that? Given what we’ve seen about the clubs financials in the last 3 years? Would it not make more sense that the clubs hierarchy realised the mess they’d allowed Ancelotti to put us in and one of Benitez’ prerequisites was to get shut of the fella who thought flying home to a World Cup squad (that he wasn’t selected for) was more important than acknowledging the fans of the club who had paid his ridiculous wage? It’s not hard is it.

He played roughly 20-25 times for us in a season we finished 11th. If that’s your hope and expectation for this club then that’s on you. Not me.

He was a waste of money. We’d of finished in a similar position without giving him a million quid a month.
 
Wonder about the long term strategy in this, If there is one

Have they worked something out with the player and City if all goes well

Or

Do we sign a Marquee loan every season knowing they’ll leave but also knowing that there’s usually someone like them in the market next summer
 
One telling thing for me about this signing..... is my 8yo, who is football obsessed now is really excited by the signing and the Mrs has asked to get him on the back of a top.

But for the young ones, they know his name, they know him as a top player and if he can perform like we know he can will be super exciting to watch this season!

Let’s worry about that in 12 months time.

For now, only vibes.
