Christ.

Looks like early transition period villa to me.

Ndiaye feels like he's off and we probably want someone lined up first if so.

Grealish is still an unknown, decent chance he comes back but there were rumours about Atleti and Villa showing interest in him.

If Ndiaye goes for say £70 m we would be able to out bid Villa for Grealish and have change to replace Illi , Ndiaye has had over four weeks off now so should be with the squad by now for pre season.

Disappointed that none of our shite players have been properly linked away

Jesus christ a bidding war for an injured tipsy 30 year old grealish whos on mega money

If there’s any competition for Grealish and he’s open to moving, he’s not coming back.

Our entire sales pitch is he can stay where he’s settled and still play at a decent level.

As soon as he gives the okay to going back to Birmingham or moving abroad to Madrid, we’re out of the running.

Usually those deals happen in the last few weeks.

I doubt we'd even consider offers for McNeil right now given Ndaiye may well be off and Grealish isn't confirmed to be coming back.

You'd hope by the end of the window he'll have been sold and we'd have strengthened out wide, but I don't think the former will happen unless the latter does first.

Tim's been linked again with Hull, so apart from maybe Alcaraz I'm not sure we've got anyone else we could feasibly sell for money. Patterson maybe? Feels like we'd struggle to get anything other than a loan offer for him though.
