We're are not Liverpool, and never will be. We are the Lily Whites! If you don't like our transfer policy.. you know the rest....

Jack Grealish at £15M is an absolute steal. If someone else grabbed him at that price...a lot on here would be pissed we missed an opportunity.

And the beat goes on...

Isnt this v similar to past windows?

Always started off brightly wanting to make statements of intent but no huge signings. People will be saying "my god window has only started for 2 weeks... we have 2 months more chill the fuck up etc"

Now comes the middle of the window when there growing signs of frustrations - "chill, the deals are difficult, we are trying our best, poch is backed"

End of window - "it was never easy to begin with... we have limited budget etc etc"

In my opinion, based on past windows, early complains at the start of the window are completely justified. I wouldn't be surprised if next season's blips are blamed on this window's delay in signing players again - lack of pre season, WC fever - clubs are only willing to sell after WC etc etc

We never learn.

Really? The league table doesn't lie. Champions League qualification 3 years in a row. Every window fans like you whinge about not spending £100's of millions on the latest shiny player.
I am sure these gems will follow soon

Have to wait till the big boys finish their business first

It's difficult ...goalpost have been moved

We run out of time... will try again in January

Dreadful isn't. We'll probably just end up in the top 3 again, QF's of the Champions League and a cup run.

Fuck me, some of you deserve the 90's again........

I've been desperate for us to sign Maddison, and i believe JM and Grealish are very comparable.

I hadn't heard about JM's tweets about Bale and Spurs until yesterday. Although not a massive issue, it's unpleasant enough to make me prefer Grealish now, who i think would flourish under Poch.

I got banned for not using a full stop.
I got banned for asking if I could ask for tickets. I didn't even ask for them, just asked if I was allowed to. Ridiculously petty site COYS is.

Anyway, back to Grealish, I understand some are disappointed but he has potential and if Poch likes him and he's a bargain then I see no issue with it. Also helps our homegrown quota. Let's give the lad a chance.

Apparently I've been suspended and I don't think I've even posted in the last five years.

How fabulous.

I get it - post and you get banned. Er, dont post and you get banned as well. That makes a lot of sense. I am on your side @freeeki , you'd never say anything remotely out of order, would you? :D

Our turnover is now at similar levels to Arsenal and Liverpool. It may take 12 months to validate this with public data but our gate receipts will exceed Arsenal given our capacity and our ticket prices and they have the highest gate receipts in world football.
Lol our merchandising income isn't close.

My issue is he isn't top quality, he isn't CL level by far yet. I saw him in the promotion final and he looked only decent but nowhere near the level we need to push on. Many Fulham players stood out far better on the day like Cairney. Just look at our competition for Grealish. Leicester and West Ham etc

I also refuse to believe Poch sat there in May and when drawing up a list of targets to improve us to win the title he came up with Jack Grealish. I'm sorry but no.

Poch is being courted by Real Madrid but wants to stay at Spurs because we sign players like Grealish. I don't buy it. The window hasn't closed so we can only react to the window as it unfolds so noone is throwing their toys out the pram but it will be absolutely criminal if we don't sign genuine top class players who immediately come into the squad and make us so much stronger. Martial would do that. De Ligt should do that.
As ever we wait but some of us feel this window is exactly like the old ones when we thought it would finally be different and we'd act like one of the big boys.

Anyway here's hoping!
There's absolutely no way of knowing that. For all we know Poch could have really wanted him but we could have been quoted 40m and with Poch needing to focus on other areas too probably felt that it would eat too much into his other transfers. We had links to Maddison and a HG player previously, so that suggests he was looking for someone in this role and now that Villa are in this desperate situation an opportunity has arisen. We will soon know whether or not Poch is simply being passed players, although him signing a new contract suggests otherwise.

I think that Grealish will be a good player to have in our squad. Good close control and good passing range. If he is an accompaniment to a top quality central midfielder and we strengthen other weaker areas (back up striker/WF etc) - then Jack would be a decent signing given his potential and ,probably, cut price deal.

What did Maddison tweet?
