Pritchard was Jack's age when he smashed it at Brentford, having a better season than what Jack has just had at Villa.

But he was deemed to be surplus to requirements (he was unlucky with injury too)

But if Poch wants him then I do to.

Was going to post something like this, Pritchard is a much better footballer.

Woah woah woah ...
It's one guys opinion. He should be allowed an opinion without being called fucking dense mate

... even if some of us on here are fucking dense
Yeah I guess, thing is honesty is the best policy and considering the dislike for anything Sissoko has done in a Spurs shirt and his price tag .... Well.

Truth hurts.

Based on what?

Sissoko actually put in a good work rate when coming of the bench and offering speed and being more versatile offering something that we do lack in the team. For me Grealish is a player that needs to start games and get consistency and I cant see him getting that with Eriksen in front of him, he has a skillset I believe we have in other players that are better. Also I guess it is just a personal thing, we all have players we do not like for me JG is one of them, I do not see the quality in him. If we sign him I really hope that I am wrong and will of course support him as a Spurs player but until then I really hope he stays at Villa.

Reminds me of Lallana when he was younger, with a bit more silk. I can totally see Poch being a fan.

For 20 or under I think I’m all for it. Sissoko out Grealish in sounds good to me.

At that price it shouldn’t make a huge dent on our ability for 1/2 game changers.

Cheer up fellas.

Not so long ago most on here were fuming and sure that Levy won't back Poch...

Now we have ITK that Poch wants Grealish as No.1 Target... Levy seemingly get this deal done...

Now we reached a point where some thinks even Sissoko is better than Grealish...

Come on, trust in Poch, wait till Deadline Day to go in full meltdown and see how Grealish turns out - could be our next Dele-esque signing - his talent is obvious

Fair enough. Onions and all.

Hmm conveniently ignoring that Spurs are trying to get in De Ligt and Martial?

Key word is "trying". Let's be honest - we've been here before, particularly with players of the calibre of Martial. Trying but ultimately missing out. Hopefully we can get him but I'm not holding my breath.

Big old ifs.
Window isn't closed yet. Long way to go. If we end it with just players of that ilk then fine people can be p****d. But Poch signed a new deal, has rejected the opportunity of RM, we have ITK saying 3 of our top players have or are about to sign new deals - think this would all be happening if we were going to end the window with Grealish and Hegazi?

Given all the ITK we had that Poch was a big fan of Barkley, I’m not at all surprised to find out that he would like Grealish. Quite similar players for me, but Grealish young enough to potentially push on with some Poch coaching.

Wonder if Herc's ITK from January referred to Grealish - the player "all but tied up for summer" who everyone "agrees is the better player"

I do get it, but lets put that into context - one is in the Championship, the other (who by the way, has flopped so far for whatever reason) is in the Premiership.

What's the likelihood that Grealish goes on to be a useful player in our squad? Pretty high I'd say, with the right coaching and attitude

What's the likelihood that Grealish goes on to be player who's winning man of the match awards in the knock out stages of the Champs League? Not great IMO

It's not that he's not a useful player, but the concern is that he'll end up standing in the way of junior players coming through and also, makes it slightly less likely we'll focus or end up with players who do fit in that category

I get the impression Grealish is one (of many I'm sure) player we've been keeping tabs on for some years. With Villa failing to gain promotion, then their financial problems becoming public knowledge, we've pounced. I could be well wide of the mark ofc.

I think if we do sign Grealish , hel be a cracking player for us , totally different to what we have and exactly what we need . Kane will be rubbing his hands together at the thought . Nice slide through balls .
IMO .??
