And we all take agents words as gospel of course. Look, this has gotten really boring. I don't really care when it was he decided he wanted to play for England instead of Ireland - it really matters not a jot. Maybe he realised he'd set his sight too low - he's far, far better than the kid he...

True - away at Slovakia, then if they get through that, away at the winners between NI / Bosnia Herzosaltanvinegar. Can't say I overly fancy their chances, but maybe all these amazing talented youngsters Jolly Red Giant thinks Grealish should be joining up with will actually come through for them.

Seems to average about half a dozen bookings a season which ain't bad for a CM, and his last red (for a 2nd yellow) was 2 years ago. Not exactly looneytunes. I wouldn't be concerned about his temperament, especially considering he gets kicked from pillar to post most weeks, and just cracks on...

Many, even most HUMAN BEINGS go with whatever is best for their careers. Why should footballers be any different ? Population is an advantage, but its not the be-all and end-all. China have a population of 1.3bn - where the hell are they on the football map ? Holland have a population of 16m...

I like that you have the inside track on the discussions between JG and his agent, but his transfer fee and wages would be driven by Villa's valuation of him, and whatever the buying club were prepared to pay him. Being an England international (as opposed to Ireland) might have been more of a...

The money isn't in playing for England, its in playing for Villa. And I think the reason he changed his allegiance from Ireland to England is because one International setup comprises of a young, vibrant squad under a forward-thinking manager, which is coming off the back of a WC semi-final...

Yep. I couldn't give a toss about his U21 career. Born in Birmingham, he's FAR too good for Ireland, it would be a total waste of his talents. He's shown this season that he can consistently perform in the PL, he deserves a call-up. But then you never can tell with Fishlips, he usually tends to...

Indeed. They've already lost McGinn probably for the rest of the season. If Grealish gets crocked then they are royally stuffed. A disinterested Drinkwater will make little to no difference to their chances of staying up. BTW, Grealish should be a SHOO-IN for the next England squad. He pisses...
