Much prefer Grealish over Maddison. I’d kill to have Foden.
I would say he's even a level from what Spurs and Chelsea have to be honestHe is a top player. Not world class. No one would said he's world class. But to say he's a level above Lingard and Andreas is criminally under rating Grealish. He is playing to a level above or on par with Madison, Mount or Ali who are all top players in the same position.
He is a top number 8/10 who could play in an attacking setup at a top team. This is where Grealish is at the moment. There are only a few players in the PL who are above him at the moment. The Man city lot De Bruyne, D Silva, B Silva are better. But grealish is the next level down in my opinion and is on a course of progression. He could get even better. Thats why he should be a serious target for us.
Have a look at Liverpool's display today? Do you think JG is really a player that will get us back battling for the premier League. Come on like, he'd wouldn't make the bench at Liverpool or City.He is a top player. Not world class. No one would said he's world class.

Man, that would have been class...It’s a real shame we didn’t manage to pull off the Lukaku-Dybala swap.
Yeah, it's this weird anti-english bias. If that was Carles Gil instead of Grealish, people would be clamouring for him. Only time it appears to be ok to be English is if you're 16-19Ruling out Grealish is shortsighted. He's clearly getting better after serving his apprenticeship in League One and then the Championship. He's on the verge of entering his prime and has become a leader at Villa. Nobody was bothered when Liverpool were signing Milner, Robertson, Matip or Wijnaldum but they are now.
Can you tell us, who are the top three players for chances created in the league this season?Its sad times when people are saying we should move for Jack Grealish. He's decent but nowhere near a world beater. This is Manchester United. I thought we should be done buying mediocre players.
Seriously like. He would be a step up for Andrea in Lingard in fairness though who should be in the championship.
Would he make the City or Liverpool team? We have enough of better than average players.Can you tell us, who are the top three players for chances created in the league this season?
And could you tell us how many goals and assists Grealish has got?
Sorry but out this lad in a team with stronger players around him he 'l improve further, I think it'd be a great bit of business signing him as a Lingaard/Pereira replacement
This is such bullcrap. Grealish is better than Henderson Keita and Wijnaldum. So which world class midfielder do you think we should get?Would he make the City or Liverpool team? We have enough of better than average players.
Big clubs in England and Europe will rarely sell their top established players. If you want someone that would be guaranteed a game at City or Liverpool you would need to be signing Mbappe or his equivalent. The alternative is to do what Liverpool did, which was to buy Mane from Southampton (many people laughed that they had overpaid) and buy Salah (who had failed at Chelsea). You develop them and try to make them better. Then when that works Van Dijk sees the potential in the team and chooses Liverpool over other big clubs, as does Allison.Would he make the City or Liverpool team? We have enough of better than average players.
Aaahhhh your a quisling?Would he make the City or Liverpool team? We have enough of better than average players.

Grealish has a 45m release clause.Pogba stay cannot be guaranteed past this summer. Therefore, I suggest getting an AM & CM/ DM player with the likes of Olmo for No. 10. Maddison and Grealish will cost a fortune. I rather leave those for the likes of Sancho and Haaland/ Werner. For DM, Soumare and Zakaria looks good.
Robertson £8m, Matip free, Milner free and Wijnaldum £23m.Ruling out Grealish is shortsighted. He's clearly getting better after serving his apprenticeship in League One and then the Championship.

I haven't seen anything of Eze. What makes you choose him over Grealish out of interest?Robertson £8m, Matip free, Milner free and Wijnaldum £23m.
Grealish is a good player and would be a good pick up for around £20m. But picking him up for £20m doesn't look possible and I suspect Villa will demand around £60m. We should then look elsewhere, because there's better players than Grealish around Europe who are valued at significantly lower fees.
Personally I'd sign Eze from QPR over Grealish.
Well Grealish's release clause is £45m so there would be no need. Lingard + £10m would be decent business though.45m + Lingard & Pereira would be even sweeter.
Surely there aren’t many players with more quality who would cost less?Robertson £8m, Matip free, Milner free and Wijnaldum £23m.

Eze is a more skilful player imo and seems to have more potential than Grealish as a AM/#10. Eze would also cost alot less but would be a better investment in the longrun.I haven't seen anything of Eze. What makes you choose him over Grealish out of interest?
For what it's worth, £45m for Grealish in this market would be good business I think, if we're intent on sticking with a 4231.
45m + Lingard & Pereira would be even sweeter.
Ziyech from Ajax stands out. I think he'll be significantly cheaper than Grealish and is also a better player.Surely there aren’t many players with more quality who would cost less?
Ziyech himself has clearly stated he's not going anywhere in the January window. Not an option.Ziyech from Ajax stands out. I think he'll be significantly cheaper than Grealish and is also a better player.
Neither is Grealish most likely and villa would be stupid to entertain offers in January. I was alluding to the summer window.Ziyech himself has clearly stated he's not going anywhere in the January window. Not an option.
Right then so as per the thread title only Dani Olmo has been mentioned as an option? We're not getting anyone thenNeither is Grealish most likely and villa would be stupid to entertain offers in January. I was alluding to the summer window.
We don't necessarily need a AM in January IMO. I feel we should revert back to 4-3-3 and sign Boubakary Soumare as the box to box #8.Right then so as per the thread title only Dani Olmo has been mentioned as an option? We're not getting anyone then
