if Bruce is still there next season I don't know if I'd want to send any youngsters his way.Villa are fucked financially and have big gaps to fill in their squad. I'd imagine a decent offer of cash (20m say) and some loans, I think they'd bite our hand off
Also going to allow Eriksen to play deeper which he can do equally effectively.While I agree with this we are not going to be able to improve the first XI in every position. We are not going to be able to upgrade on Eriksen but we need someone else that can play that role if he's out. That I guess is what we would be looking at from Grealish.
I wonder how many posters have seen him play this season? Very few I expect.
If Wolves are bidding €40m on a right back & Fulham wanted £50m on Sess when they were in the Championship, then Villa are very likely to ask for £40m for one of their best players
Fat fingers and phone. Edited.Why the d'oh rating? @jjaak ?

Not proven.
Not sure why people keep thinking this an answer.
People want to move Eriksen deeper so they can justify getting in another shiny attacking midfielder or changing to the fabled 4-3-3 that seems to be the answer to all our problems.
Or it could be that we likely won't be able to find someone that can do that better than him. I mean I don't think we'll be able to.People want to move Eriksen deeper so they can justify getting in another shiny attacking midfielder or changing to the fabled 4-3-3 that seems to be the answer to all our problems.
Would Savic want to come here though, you've got to be realistic.Rather than picking up the quality backups I would prefer us to go after the gaps in starting xi players.
£40m for Grealish or double up to get that star player and spend £80m on a Savic type CM.
Maybe he’s out of our league but £80m on someone like him would give way more than x2 the value of a £40m Grealish who could come good but is a sub realistically starting next season.
