Dahnsouff Posted 21 July 2021 Posted 21 July 2021 If Villa buy him for 30m after Beundia for 40m? does that mean Grealish is off?

Villa seem to be ignoring financial fair play. Their chief exec is on the committee for it. They're also not in Europe so they're likely to get away with it. Spent about 400m in the last 5 years. Absolute joke.
The People's Hero Posted 21 July 2021 Posted 21 July 2021 Undecided on him. Would actually like to see him for a year in the prem before I gamble., One example I see something in but at the wrong team is Pepe. Pepe would be dynamite here. 1

Maddison swap from memory it think we were watching him previously

I know they were in the crapper in the championship and that if they hadn't have gone up when they did then they'd likely have been demoted a division and with a hefty transfer embargo. Ridiculous.

I'm just telling you what's going on. Arsenal's transfer strategy over the last x years has been unfathomable.

I asked an Arsenal fan the same question and he came up with some guff about Madders being more adept as a right ACM where as Smith Rowe plays as a left ACM. I’d say that when he isn’t playing as 10 Madders likes to drift in from the left to cut in on his right foot, which is the same as Smith Rowe. Strange club and fan base.

It wasn't a dig, genuinely. I don't get it. They dont really need a Maddison. Maybe if they had Europe... or injuries... but I can't see its appealing to him. But I don't get involved in the why's and wherefor's. If I hear something, I pass it on. 1
Jimbo Posted 21 July 2021 Posted 21 July 2021 Isn't Leon Bailey just a slightly better Demerai Grey? 1

I personally doubt it as they won’t pay what we will want or offer the players that would tempt us, even after rumoured antics. Obviously if he does want to go that may change the position, but without handing in a transfer request (which I doubt as he will lose any bonus agreements) the club has the power here.
RowlattsFox Posted 21 July 2021 Posted 21 July 2021 I've never paid much attention to him despite the continuous hope to sign him for the last couple of years. I can't help but think though if he's has good as people think he is then a) why are they supposedly whoring him around the premier League? And b) why are Aston Villa seemingly the only club interested at what is a reasonable price these days considering what you'd have to spend on someone in this country?

Yes and No. But to a significantly large extent that what you're saying is a good point - yes. Upgrade though. He does look like the kind of player suited to the PL, so lets wait and see.

The timing sort of feels right all round, but its the wrong buying club, in my opinion. I really don't want to say much more as there are posters who cloy around the Maddison topics and send me abuse regularly via DMs. Please, please just don't bother. I'm not scared by your threats!
Pliskin Posted 21 July 2021 Posted 21 July 2021 He’s very up and down. But aren’t most wingers? The concerning thing is he went from being linked to teams like United for silly money, to being offered to PL clubs for a much reduced fee. I think with Bailey you’re either going to revitalise him and get a monster, or you’re going to get a better Gray, who on his day is brilliant, off it pants. Having said that he is 23, Bailey at Villa wouldn’t go anywhere on my opinion, Bailey at Leicester would probably do well.

Hahaha I was a big fan, I was argued with on here because I criticised Leverkusen for moving him to the left after him earning his move as a right winger. Low and behold he seems to have finally played more on the right at Leverkusen last season and has his best season yet out there.
An Away Move Posted 21 July 2021 Posted 21 July 2021 I want him purely because I’ve signed him on FM2019 & FM2020 and he’s been immense!
