I’m going to miss Grealish at Villa, the way he plays combined with being the local lad captaining the side managed by Dean Smith whose auld lad was a Villa fan and steward… it just made it easier to ignore the corporate machine football is and buy into the emotional element more like when I was younger.
He and City will tear it up and I don’t wish him any bad fortune for leaving but one of these days I’d like to see a player in a situation like his turn down the advances of the big boys and say nah I don’t want to leave, I’m happy here. He would have been the King of Birmingham and Villa would have given him 200k a week but I understand almost no pro footballer is going to do that so can’t really blame him.
