Grealish, like Sancho, would be good at the right price, but due to their current salaries there’s zero chance they come for the right price. At £10m and 80k pw in wages it would be a good deal. But as they’re both on 300k pw they’d never go for it, their accountants would break their legs on the way to the medical.

Mad that some would take him imo.

It's going to be pretty tough to take next season, only being the north east's second club and having a global profile way below our neighbours from the Wear.

Aye I'd take Osimhen in a heartbeat, but I don't think he's close to being the best striker in the world.

Osmihen is an amazing striker, can do things that many other strikers can't and he seemingly has no right to do. Amazing talent. Just people will disregard him because he's wasting his career with a season in Turkey, after a few seasons at Napoli who aren't the top club so is not in the deep ends of UCL which people remember. Hope a top side in Europe buys him, with his demands dropping, because staying in Turkey would be a proper waste.

Yes, it was an exaggerated figure to emphasize the point. Even up till now you're still struggling to get your head around such a simple thing. So you believe whatever you want. I can't help you.

Mad some of you wouldn’t take Grealish if it was an option. Have we forgotten what happened a couple of seasons ago where we were decimated and had 3 goalkeepers on the bench? A direct, quick winger is no good against a low block, which is what we will be facing more of imo. Grealish is great at keeping possession, winning free kicks and has the ability to provide a bit of creativity which we are sorely lacking.

Coutinho, where did he do well after Liverpool? You mean his initial loan at Villa from Barcelona? The club talks about trying to use more data in their recruitment and it's instances like Grealish where it should be used as it would raise so many red flags. It's not just about using data to identify certain characteristics in a player but to also help in decision making.

they sing three lines of it and don't even know what it's called

You've plucked a number out of thin air for Spurs' third choice full back and got upset when someone called you out on it more like

We don't need a winger who sidesteps down the wing the ball for 10 yards before passing it 5 yards backwards. I'd rather we just stuck Krafth on the wing if we wanted someone to do that.

Sign the heck out of him.

Scott Carson has all of those honours except for the Villa ones...

We're really scraping the barrel for examples if we're using Rashford. I don't see many teams going for him after his loan spell which says it all. Best examples I can think of would be Cantona or Dennis Bergkamp who did well over here but that was where they didn't settle in another league or had problems.

Can't wait for the video reveal of him getting our 24 shirt and him saying he can't wait to play like Almiron, with a safety wink.

😂

Thank you Nostradamus.

More stuff to file under "things that never happened". This chap is claiming that 'Wise Men Say' is getting 'global recognition' as the anthem of SAFC: then his mate chips in with this belter: He knows someone who spends a lot of time in USA and he gets "loads" of messages about them singing it in tune at Wembley 😆😆😆😆 Where is this "global recognition' coming from? 😆😆😆

It's like watching the F1 on the tele, you just don't get the sense of speed unless you're there

None of them left a club where they weren't getting a game at their peak playing age, not remotely like Grealish. All those players moved on when they were young to make their name or were playing for the team they left.

The easiest solution in my case is to get my Mam to wash it and blame her if she ruins it.
