Grealish is NOT worth 35m atm. Outrageous really. Very bad value and yet there will still be people who want us to spunk silly money just to bring someone in.

Look elsewhere.

I am told FWIW, Sky premature. They haven’t closed the door. The price is ridiculous-35m

I'm not sure how we can get to the last day and a half of the transfer window and still be surprised at a clubs asking price on a player we have courted all window.

Where has all this Grealish stuff come from? I’m only looking at this thread every now and then. Who’s killed him again?

5.01pm tomorrow is the cut off point before the fatwa on Scrooge McDuck comes into force. Until then, his cute shiny bonce is a thing to be admired. We should really wait and see.

While everyone is crying over Grealish, I am still amazed that Fatwa has been used so successfully and the perfect time.

How many said the same about Maguire. It does seem a lot, but not in todays market.

I wonder if Poch will still be ‘Berry Berry Happy’ come 5pm tomorrow.

Shambolic how we can’t even secure a championship player from a cash strapped club.

ITK has said Grealish was the second d choice. Would love to know first choice but no strong info out there. 35 mill seems a stretch.

I don't get this. It's not your money. If the manager wants him, so be it. No matter what the club spends on players, you will still pay the same for your match tickets, kits, etc. Wouldn't you rather watch a strengthened side?! We clearly aren't spending that money on another target, as he is our preferred, so get over it.

Daniel did say that the Stadium would not affect our transfer budget....and he is right...it's improved it....he's going to produce a perfect nett spend!

Not sure, but I am pretty sure JJ and other ITK mentioned there were targets out there that the media hadn't caught on to yet, that we were pursuing... wonder if that is still the case

I see what you’re saying buuuut...

He is only worth that much if someone is willing to pay that much. I don’t know of a championship team selling a player for that much ... ever ... a lot of money for someone who has achieved so little.

Let villa feel the burn. They’ve spent a lot this window and over exerted themselves.

Be shocked if DL spent £35m on him (then again, Sissoko.....)

What a weird window.

Let’s spend 100m on martial - GET IT DONE.

Then go spend 70m on kovacic - hijack the deal - GET IT DONE

NOT MY MONEY
