I think you live in a different universe to the one that I inhabit. Everything you post about football is inoffensive but basically the opposite of what I see.

Cant see it, top 6 won't be interested. We won't sign him as Villa will be asking stupid money. Everton may take the punt.
Jack Greaselish is the complete antithesis of the type of player that we sign, or that we need. He has talent for sure but that's only about 25% of what makes a good player in a good squad.
Attitude, playing for the team, realising you're a part of the sum, not being a dick, being ready to give everything if and when you're needed. Not sulking when you aren't.
That's what we need and that's what we (generally) get, because our recruitment team are excellent.
He's perfect for Villa and he loves them (Terry giving him career advice at the final whistle notwithstanding). Let them keep him, or sell him to Palace or West Ham as he'd fit in well in another shithouse club with ideas above their station.

He should be in the premier league. Can't see a top 6 club going for him. My guess would be Huddesfield taking the punt on him.
I expect most of the Albion fans moaning about the negative side of his personality were happy to overlook these traits when we had a similar Bell End playing in the stripes.

Based on the stated locations for both of you it is a different universe !

Have I managed to blank this Albion bellend? I have absolutely no idea who you are talking about?

Leon Knight? Who was actually widely criticised on here and elsewhere by Albion fans. So the point DumLum made is open to question.

The Merchant Ivory haircut is enough reason to loathe him but there he provides so many more.
For some reason I feel that he is destined for the Toon. Rafa already has Shelvey in the hutch and seems to be taming him. Could he do the same with this wrong’un?

Not seen such Bravery!
Bargepole him. Plenty of other players in the world to sign instead.
Is it PotG?

'Orrible little tw@t. I'm out.
Wouldn't it be easier to not buy a player who needs 'sorting out', in the first place?

Any Hot Headed Albion player who dives, waves imaginary cards and mocks opposition fans.
People just don't notice it through the blue and white tinted glasses.
If Grealish played for us and had a couple of good games it would soon get overlooked.
To be fair, Neon Light drifted into megacockwomble territory just before he left us. His charge sheet before he joined was nothing like that of the fake tanned narcissist at Villa. And you can turn a bit of a blind eye when you are in division 4. There are things I heard about Lee Steele at the time that would have him out the door today, but the club stuck with him. To me, signing Grealish would almost be like singing Scott McGleish.

It's funny how everyone assumes I was talking about Leon Knight specifically
I wasn't and I would definitely be guilty of overlooking his personality in the stripes. One of the most exciting players I have watched and was happy to pay money to see him play.I'll be honest I don't know much about Grealish off the pitch but I would always find room for a megacockwomble if it actually meant more excitement and results for the Albion.

He only has to walk on the pitch with his socks rolled down around his tiny shin pads to get my heckles up. He’ll be doing that as a look at me thing I’m special. Well actually you like a self inflated tosspot. As a former centre half first thing I’d do to a player like him is clatter through the back of the preening little show pony. As for signing him it’s border line but a no from me

I would never have him on our team.
Thankfully I know Hughton wouldn't either.
