He is everything levy wants in a player. English, has great potential and if we can get him for under 20m then if he comes good we have a star and a huge sell on fee on our hands.

Just got to hope levy can get the deal done before anyone else becomes interested.

I think it's irrelevant what Levy wants tbh. All signs indicate Poch really likes him.

I got the impression the itk meant, by details, that Villa are looking ay the best way to progress, how much they need up front or is it better to spread payments with a little up front due to tax man and outgoings so to speak. We may actually be happy with the price so are being flexible on payments.

Villa most probably working out how to distribute the Grealish fee and don't want a big media announcement that they've got hold of some cash at this precise moment.
Isn't all of the cash going straight to HMRC though?

I think he has all the hallmarks of being another dele.
As in we all think squad maybe odd start here and there or 10 min cameo but in reality he will surprise us all and be really good.

I also reckon he will be in the England squad within 6 months playing for us.
Time will tell.

Got to agree with this - so much so that it twisted my wrist to register after years of lurking. This guy has tremendous balance and awareness. Receives the ball centred like Modric - able go either way. His near-death experience in 2017 seems to have sorted the attitude. For me, arguably the most exciting prospect this window.

Not discrediting what you say but just curious, how much scouting does Poch actually do?

Tbf, doesn’t he spend something stupid like 12 hours a day at the training ground? Not unlikely that he could be sent clips and videos on players he may be interested in

Highly possible. Was just genuinely curious as to how much Poch was involved...

Football.london are reading the forum again. Hi guys!
The article was published this afternoon. No one has copied anyone. Multiple people can have good sources. People have accused Matt Law of 'copying' in the past when Hercules and Trix have both said he has very good contacts.

I look at Grealish this way : compare him to recent young, English CMs , who have come into the first squad. Mason, Winks and Dele come to mind. For me, Grealish has more potential than Mason & Winks, but not Dele. Still, after working with Poch, all were capped and were part of the Spurs first squad. If Grealish develops between those other CMs for about 20M - I'm good with that.

It was a joke.

Fairs, but I think it was worth posting anyway. IMO there are people who genuinely think that all media stories are taken from this site, which is unfair on the journalists, some of whom (not all) actually have very good sources themselves.
