Mind boggling stuff!

Grealish To City? | City bid £100M

If this happens, Ed, the Glazers and Murtough or whatever the feck is name is need to be repeatedly kicked in the nads every 30 seconds for the next 80 years.
I could see both Sterling and Jesus moving on to accommodate a double signing of Grealish and Kane.
If this was to happen, I think it could pan out like this:
Aguero > Barca
Sterling > Real
Grealish > City
Kane > City
Jesus > Spurs in a swap deal
Is Jesus above a Spurs level player? Probably. But I can’t see us splashing out on both without a swap deal for at least one of them and/or a big money departure. If we’re in for Grealish, which is looking obvious, we’ll definitely have transfer plans for some of our current players.

Will depend on Spurs next coach. Jesus could buy into Poch’s vision. He is excellent with players
Please not City. I would fancy Grealish over Sancho any day of the week as i think he is a better fotballer and would help us dominate matches more than Sancho.
I really can’t see Poch returning, to be honest. Levy’s vision didn’t match his own and all the players that he wanted to move on are still there. Without Kane, I don’t think he’d be interested.
Kane hasn’t gone anywhere yet and unless someone comes up with 100m minimum he’ll be a Spurs player next season
I would expect Real would want better than Sterling.
Signing Grealish would take too many goals from the side. Maybe Kane can make up for it but no way they can sign both imo
Plus they already have Foden for the left

Well, Grealish is more likely to move than Kane and I think he'd do very well as a false 9 so why not? Also Jesus and Sterling didn't show much this season so maybe one of them will be sold.
Going on the left side of midfield in previous Silva position. Seems perfect for him in City system.
Hopefully not.

This.
This thread is fecking depressing.
FFS Utd players get in the ears of the people that matter and get him ahead of Sancho, could actually stomach them getting Kane more than Jack any day of the week but please not both because that's too much to take. Romano kept talking about swaps being the way forward well get and offer Jesse/Axel to Villa as part of the deal then to lower price

I would be gutted if he went there. My favourite non United player in the Premier League.
yes
£100m theyre welcome to him. I'd love to see them try justify how he is worth that. feck me
That isn't happening.
What, are they going to sign both Grealish and a CF for 120m+ each? 250m on 2 players? Doubt it. Between Mahrez, Sterling, Foden and Bernardo Silva, I doubt they get Grealish. Kane for 120m makes sense for them unless they want to spend 150m on Haaland instead instead of waiting a year.
He would probably be worth more than that to Villa, I would be surprised if they let him go for less than 120m.
Remember last summer when there were people saying he was worth £40m because Van de Beek was just as good and Havertz was twice the player?
Good times.
Good times.
I'm still gutted Villa stayed up, I genuinely think we'd have signed him last summer if they hadn't.
Sell Pogba, Pereira, Dalot. Let Matic and Mata leave.
Should be close enough to get Grealish.

Not really since each year has been practically the same from our end.bit premature Christina
Promises to our fans which never materialise.
You're repressing that inner muppet are you? Let it be free, it's that time if year!
I personally feel that villa will look to sell Grealish this year.
They went through the season without him and it showed they could still survive to some standard without him.

Yeah I blame VAR for that Sheff Utd goal not being allowed to stand and cost us the signing
This is what happens when football refuses to grow up and institute squad limits and exorbitant taxes on luxury transfer/salary spending.
Yeah sadly it will be to our neighbours
If they do get him and bin Sterling - it shows how ruthless and well run they really are.
I don't like dogpiling on the whole self-lamenting stuff - but hoarding players until their values have absolutely depleted is one thing we're masters in.

Sterling has contract until 2023 but basically City have to offer extension until '26 and he wants big money or sell him now. And he didn't justify his demands this season, now he's a bench-warmer who wants 350K p/w.
Not too worried about losing him if i'm honest. Don't think city would meet our valuation for him but if they did we would be in for quite the windfall. Don't see where he'd fit in their squad though, as he would want to play every game.
Also thanks FFP for keeping the game in check, really appreciate it.

Real isn't spending money for Sterling. If they have the money, they will go for one of Haaland or Mbappe.
I can see them breaking their transfer record this summer especially if they win tomorrow, was convinced it was gonna be Kane tbh as it made the most sense but could easily see it being Grealish or would Mbappe even be that ridiculous now Zidane has gone. I don’t even see why they’d need to sell to accommodate someone this summer, Aguero is already gone and not like they’d need to balance the books, can just let them fight it out for places. Lack of rest over the summer as well, this season has shown how important having quality squad depth is and would just make them even more stacked
I too think the same. This definitely is a minority opinion but I think Grealish is going to elevate his game to a whole new level at a bigger club.
Is there in any way United fans can prevent this happening?
If the likes of Chilwell and AWB moved for 45-50 mil then Grealish is easily worth 100 mil.
What's the logic here? The difference in earning between winning or losing the final is minimal. A) I doubt any result has an impact on how much they want to/are willing to spend but B) if it were it'd be far more likely a loss would result in a splashing of cash than a win.
If this happens, the fans of the rest of the league should just forget about the first position and recognize the second position as the title winners. Only thing City will have is a trophy, which you can get made for 1000 quid, instead of having to spend 1 billion on it.
