2025/26 Jack Grealish

He was excellent for us and I really like him as a person but I wouldn't be interested in paying more than 20m max for him, and even that feels quite high. We need to be smart with our business and it isn't smart to spend too much on a player that will be 31 at the start of next season and that's just had a nasty break, no matter the good will we have for him.
 
Did anyone at the match see him and if he didnt have his protective boot on anymore?
Why do you ask, Macca? Are you hoping beyond hope that there’s a chance we might see him on the pitch before the end of the season?

Less than an hours pay based on 24/7 earnings. Mingebag

Only joking ffs, well done Jackie boy.
Boooo! Don’t be a grinch, mate…😜😂
 
Transfer fee and wages for Grealish is a different calculation than most because you have to factor in the marketing aspect- shirt sales, global exposure etc. The other thing to factor in is attracting quality players who may view Everton as beneath them, but may buy into the project if the likes of Grealish is on board

What "global exposure" does Jack Grealish give Everton?

If he's not in the England side no one in Asia cares about an English player.

We know you do not like him Zat because he’s old enough to shave but Grealish as a 100m pound player is well known across the world especially from his time at City who have a large fan base in the far east
They are having their summer tour there this year

Grealish has become the club's bestseller by a wide margin, selling five times more than the next most popular player, indicating a massive commercial impact.

TBF, for the total outlay and some good scouting, it's conceivable that we could replicate that with a different, hopefully younger, player. Obviously we'll never know, but, for example, Kubo could have done the same. Alternatively, wouldn't you rather it was split between FOUR exciting players?
 
There is no doubt in my mind that a fit Jack Grealish is a major step up in quality for Everton and I would definitely sign him on a permanent deal if we can negotiate a proper contract. We need full backs, we need a centre forward even if Beto continues to improve, these things we need more than Jack. If we have enough money in the pot to buy everything we need and he takes a major pay cut then definitely sign him. TFG and the Hill Dickinson have provided us with a great opportunity but it is only that, an opportunity, we need to make the most of that opportunity and not waste it on vanity projects. Only do what is in the best interests of the club.
 
No pace left and when we play him we're one dimensional.

We should be saving cash on Grealish and getting a load of pace into this team.

I like Grealish, but not to the detriment of what's right for building for the future.

It's a big no from me.
