Grealish for £20 M, McGinn for £16 M and they can clear their debt . . . No way we could afford that Don't you think Shull could afford that? Look at all the money he saves by not going to games; or buying pies or bovril. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thing is, I can't imagine Jack Grealish hanging around for yet another season at that level when Spurs were so interested last summer. And will Villa sell them both on the same window? Depends how f**ked their finances really are, I guess. It'll be interesting, but at least we've not budgeted for any of this so it'll be a bonus either way. Villa have far from given up.Watch them go on a good run and comfortably make the Play Offs. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ideal scenario for us is they play amazingly, with SJM at the heart of it all, but then miss out. I have no love for Villa so this suits me just fine. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A nice brace still and enough to help them win the points. It is all the other attributes he offers which set him apart too though. Great player and still on the rise - a big signing for the Premiership in the summer I suspect... Yip 3 or 4 more wins in their next 4 or 5 games and they will be there or there abouts just behind the leaders. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MenstrieSaint 1,076 Report post Posted March 14, 2019 Villa are 11/1 to win promotion , probably the best value bet about , with Grealish and McGinn back they will go on a run and be the form team in the play offs . Add Sunderland 11/10 for promotion and Tranmere 7/2 for promotion and you have a very good treble . 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maboza 643 Report post Posted April 12, 2019 Interesting to see how much McGinn is being talked up down south. He's definitely a very talented player and one that fans love due to his all action style, commitment and energy. The slight negatives are that he can be prone to getting caught in possession and sloppy passes - particularly noticeable in a (very poor) Scotland team in recent times but it was apparent at Hibs in recent years as well. The English lower leagues aren't all they're cracked up to be but let's hope that he uses it as the springboard as others have in their improvement. It would be wonderful to see him go all the way to the top like Andy Robertson has done. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
