Those low shin pads too. Him and Pogba boiling Souness’ piss on Sky Sports. Actually, when Grealish does it, it might be because he’s ‘got character’...

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
No, but i'd much rather buy a player that scores, assists and creates chances than someone who doesn't.

Impressive numbers, to be fair.
Honestly I don't get it. Ole's transfer strategy is like waiting for a bus to come to take you to your front door, rather than getting onto one that drops you at the end of your street. Grealish improves our squad overnight and is a better option at 10 than our current options and has more to prove than the player at Spurs who is alleged has already rejected us.....
If he does get sold this window, I wonder if it’ll be with a loan back to Villa for the rest of the season? Villa would be seriously fecked without him.
He is outshining Maddison
he would work miracles in our midfield
Grealish and Sancho would be my top summer targets. I'd sign both.
Assuming Pogba goes it wouldn't be unrealistic to expect a window of Sancho, Grealish, Saul?(Top Cm to replace Pogba) and then another backup Cm considering Matic is useless and probably going.
For a proper top team that a very realistic window when you losing your best player. For us I don't think we could pull it off.
Think only Sancho might turn us down. If so we need a 2nd option to him.
Anyway Grealish looks a class above Madison to me.

I’m just pissed sky haven’t given him an assist for the first villa goal. My fantasy team needs the points!
He's sensational. Dragged them up last year, one of the best players in the league this year. We really should be in for him.
He has got an assist on fantasy though.
It does and Matic did. Just because he couldn't fulfil his role it doesn't mean it wasn't less defensive than Ander's, in fact it was because he was in a more defensive role but still "sat around being lazy" why everyone though he was sh@t, he was a liability because he couldn't fulfil his higher defensive responsibility.
Apparently has a 45m release clause. Not sure if he still has it, but at that price, it seems a no brainer for a position we need.

Even more impressive when you consider he's at Villa creating for Wesley and not Kane, Vardy, Abraham etc.
We will probably have to pay 80-90m to sign Maddison, so signing Graelish makes sense from that perspective.
Depends also on.what the player wants. I think he ll be available in summer
I'd be very surprised if Grealish is the best signing we can make for the No.10 spot regardless if he costs £45m.
He's a good player and all but we can get better and we need better.

He didn’t on the Sky one the last I checked. Which one are you on about?
Go on Brighton...
Doubt they could afford him.
Scored 17 last season I believe. That’s not enough for you? Sets chances up on a plate for people nearly every game he plays too.
Nice goal for him today, though his goal against us was more impressive. Should have had 2 goals though. Ridiculous decision to rule that out.
Dont think hes close to being good enough for what's trying to be a top team tbh. Hes done well this year and is a bit of an inspiration for Villa, but whenever I watch him he just doesn't strike me as more than a player for a mid table team who we wouldn't bat an eyelid at if he wasn't English. Buendia at Norwich for example has maybe even been more impressive this year, but obviously you won't hear about him coming.
Would rather look elsewhere. Maddison I'd say is a lot better but at the same time, will cost way too much relative to his own level (and likely won't leave with them in the CL). Better to look abroad.

We should go for him over Maddison this summer. Absolute brilliant player on the ball.
I like him. Atrocious hair and socks but I’d have him at United. Great calves mind.
He has on the official one which is what 90% of people play.
Yeah that’s the premier league one. Sky didn’t credit him with the assist.
Like who?
Certainly a lot more realistic and attainable than Maddison.
I honestly didn’t know sky had their own fantasy going on, thought the premier league one was the only one.
If it’s true he has a £45M release clause, then it’s an absolute no brainer. Having said that, watch Liverpool now go and get him
He's the sort of player our rivals buy and then people moan why weren't we in for him.
Saul no chance. Sancho unlikely. Grealish hopefully. Maybe one of Longstaff or Rice too. I'm sure we'll bid for Eriksen too but he'll probs go to Juve. Jude Bellingham would be a great kid for the future too.
I think the board might prefer to see Garner getting more minutes next season, as opposed to signing someone like Saul for a fortune.
He just seems to be getting better and better. Has the real look of a United player about him and I could see him becoming a fan favourite.
If we can get him for £45m I’d do it today and start him tonight.

I don't watch as much European football anymore so I'm not sure about names but watching Grealish, it's hard to imagine there aren't better options out there. Good player but hardly a world beater.
He is the talisman of that Villa side, he has the freedom and authority to play his best game. In a better side, he'd have to fit in a structure and I'm not sure he could do that for a top 4 side. A bit like Zaha in my opinion.
Dean Smith emphatically denied that Grealish had a release clause in an interview a couple of weeks ago.
No chance he comes in January.
I don't mind Villa, i like their ground but for the sake of getting him I hope they go down

I don't think we will be buying anyone in January tbh.
Summer moves will depend on where we finish or if we can win the EL. If we qualify for the CL I can forsee a pretty nice budget for Ole. If we don't then they will continue to tighten the purse strings I bet.
