I feel really bad for Grealish, the club that he supports are trying to make it look like he's forcing a move out and they're the good guys despite a mutual agreement already being in place

Hopefully this doesn't go all Berahino. Have a feeling it'll get done but only if Grealish puts a lot of pressure on.

£35 million...seems a tad steep, that said I do rate him and think he could be exceptional at Spurs.

Crazy market, hopefully a deal at about £30 million can be brokered.

Anyone checked in on Villa Talk? I imagine they're currently flying down the "Haha fuck off spuds" and "journalists are liars, grealish loves it here" route

The Grealish thread on Villa talk needs to be archived somewhere in the new stadium if the move happens. The level of delusion.

Not only that but it seems he's acted impeccably through the whole thing.

Who was the agreement with though? The Doctor or the new guys? And when? If it was agreed during Villa’s financial troubles then the situation has clearly changed.

Grey Fox's ITK implies it was agreed with the new owners.

Jorge Mendes (well known hater of Levy because Levy refuses to buy his players) and Peter Kenyon (well known hater of Levy because Levy made him look a mug when getting £10m out of Chelsea for a DoF Frank Arnesen back in 2005, and also because Levy is a far more convincing bald super villain).

That’s cos Levy is emulating Charles Xavier in that Hogwarts for mutants place in X-Men. His master-plan is to bring them in as fledglings and uncover their hidden powers.

It doesn't really. The mention of the new owners was in the second part. I'd be surprised if they were happy with £25m at any point since the talk at the Villa end of the conversation was always floating around the £40m mark.

Sorry haven't read all 300 pages yet so not sure if it's been discussed...but Villa have just completed signing of John McGinn. I'd imagine that indicates that grealish will be going

Nah, they are okay now, they looked at their books and everything is fine.

(you'd like to think so but it seems £25 million isn't enough)

I think this is all just for Villa to save face, the fans will think they've done all they could to keep him and in the end make it look like he forced the move through.

Paying close to £30m for an average player. Yes, I mean average - decent dribbling ability and passing, but the lad is a twig and spends more time diving than tackling. He’s got potential, but this strikes me as a Stewart Downing, David Bentley-esque homegrown preferential signing.

£25m for a player who wins a few free kicks. Sort it out Spurs, I’d have pulled the plug at £15m let alone twenty.

Villa have brought in a few players but have they actually spent that much compared to the outgoings already?
