Hitcat Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 How many players from the championship are coveted by anyone in the Premier League? Grealish perhaps? Maybe one or two others. But, then again, they'd have to be head and shoulders above the rest. As soon as Neymar moved to PSG, prices went crazy. Fine if you're a Premier League team as your players prices adjusted accordingly. Players like Grealish are being touted for 40m, which are Premier League prices. All other slightly above average Championship players are now upwards of 10-20m. It's a right old pickle and almost impossible to improve without spending big and breaking P&S. 7.5m for League One players. Can't begrudge them the valuation because of fees elsewhere. It's all going to end badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stats are bang bang average and it's not a blip - they have been average since his career began. Hernandez at Leeds plays the same role and his stats p**s on Grealish. Agree with the rest of this though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wilyfox Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Disappointed. I wanted Powell, but if he's too steep he's too steep. We move on.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupremeOwl Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Yeah, we've probably weighed it up in relation to his injury record and decided we can find better for cheaper elsewhere, I'm fine with that tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with the rest of this though. Grealish is able to acquire numerous free kicks as he has a tendency to fall very easily, very useful if you've got some dead ball specialists.

Powell's a good player but can't be relied upon to play a full season, move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only because villa say they want 40m dont mean they are getting it. it's just a price to put people off signing their best player. Villa dont go up this season then I expect him to leave for around 30m ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He still has two years left on his contract, assuming wiki have got that right, and would cost a fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
