@Lesego if kane had any brain in that ugly head he would know there is absolutely no chance totenham would sell him to their rivals. Not even raoila could help him
Van De Beek would never play instead of Bruno, and United don't really use a CM role and even thought Donny could play CDM he isn't that suited to it unlike other players in the squad, for Donny to get more gametime United would have to change their whole philosophy, although I still think he should get more gametime especially in big games
@@pervenchemusic mate, we play Fred in the pivot. The man is a midfielder who can’t pass a ball, are you seriously saying Fred would do a better job than donny?
Every player gets rotated, that's why you invest in squad depth. Multiple sales + Sancho sell-on clause also freed up plenty of money. Grealish is going to be one of our key players for the next six years at least, Pep is going to unleash his potential. He won't play every game in a season because we don't want to inflict and persistent injury problems on him, nor do we want to rely on him to the extent that, for example, Man U. rely on Bruno.
@@songbird5842 I don't remember Messi or CR7 being rotated much at their peak in Spain, save for games when most of the main squad was subbed out to rest (which definitively helped to keep their scoring so high) The thing is, people are trying to normalize spending 100 M on a bench player the club really didn't need.

The amount being paid for mediocre players is ridiculous. Mbappé aside, hasn't anyone noticed that every £100m player has not been worth it or out and out flops?
£100m was the minimum value JG was worth to Villa. He helped us get promoted and kept Villa up in the PL for two seasons. That is a guaranteed £300m of PL television money he helped to generate during our return to the top flight. Once he became the nations hero at the Euro's, his value only accelerates during the rest of his 20's. That is unless he gets seriously injured over the next few years. He only started once for England during the Euro 2020 tournament. The more his personal numbers go up over the next 2 seasons, the more likely that price holds or even increases. He hasnt even played in the CL yet. Aguero + David Silva now gone and De Bruyne is now 30. Grealish is the potential replacement for their creativity/goals, along with another new striker when City sign one. Mbappe didnt even win the French league last season, with Neymar, Icardi, Di Maria and Verratti backing him up. He didnt score in any game for France during the Euro's after starting all their games. France were knocked out by Switzerland on pens.
@@oliverswales5604 It's not a hidden fact that Grealish was their 1st choice for a box-to-box midfielder and not VDB. But still, benching VDB and playing McTominay? I just cannot understand this.

Well it is Pep Guardiola. He will find a definite use for such a player. He as a forward would take on defenders helping create space while playing against a low block and be able to create from the midfield when KDB is unavailable or is not having that great of a game or even as a false 9 cos as previously mentioned his manager is Pep
The fact that other Premiere League teams are not as wealthy or don't have "oil money" has nothing to do with Manchester City.

And dont act like Liverpool players before cash from Coutinho left are paid with leaves. You just cant accept City manage their football right .
I’m no pro pundit but I think City are going to regret buying such a luxurious player to a packed attacking midfield now Chelsea and United have bought GTD top scorers.
Why do city need Grealish tho? He needs city not the other way round. They should have gone all out for Kane- Harry Kane wins City the UCL, Grealish doesn’t. City already have Foden, Sterling, Mahrez anyway.

Besides the fact he's English, can someone explain to me how is it that he's worth 100m? At least that is what Villa thinks of him when they inserted the clause in the contract. But the question remains. He's truly worth 100m??
To be honest this could have more to do with merchadising and sponsors than the actual sporting side of things. Grealish was a hot property, and now that he is in a winning team, shirt sales will skyrocket. I just hope they didn't pay 100 M to then use him as a benchwarmer
@@mafiousbj the thing is grealish works for city. He really does. His respect for de bruyne is gonna make sure he has his ego in check, he is a guardilola type player. I see this transfer working out great.

Great vid. But absolutely ridiculous from City. 100 mil on a player that will be a bench player for a lot of the season. Instead of focusing on Haaland or any other player. And hopefully Leon Bailey becomes everything he's shown he can be and move to another club. It's like saint maxim at newcastle!
Although Grealish is class I really don't think he adds THAT much more than what City's current players do. Surely for that money they could've got a world class striker or defensive midfielder. Guess when you're that wealthy you end up buying players because you can more than because of necessity, i.e. Ake, Torres.
£100 is a scandalous amount of money for any player, let alone for Grealish. The amount of damage that PSG and City have done to the football economy and it’s inflation will be difficult to reverse. If only FFP was actually any good.
@@zafar3430 I’m not saying they don’t, but they caused the inflation and the reason other clubs spend that now also; which trickles down to clubs lower down the pyramid not being able to sustain a cost structure. And what was the transfer that caused that inflation across the European game? Neymar’s to PSG. It was the highest % spend over the previous world record fee in the modern game, which considering how high transfer fees already were prior to it is ridiculous. These thing dictate market value. The Grealish fee is now being used as a benchmark for the like of the Kane deal - i.e. if Grealish cost x, this player now must cost y. I’m not saying the clubs following suit aren’t being daft either, but if you can’t see the damage PSG and City are doing specifically, then your opinion has no weight to it. The thing is these fees that they pay are in fact purposefully strategic, done to actually drive inflation, because they know they are the two clubs who can actually spend at that level, which reduces competition in the market place. They’ve expanding they’re own power, and it’s bad for sport.
@@TheBomber15 look at barcelona. They bought 3 players for 100+ million in a short space of time and now they are broke . the neymar deal maybe have started it but many other clubs also spend big money.
@@zafar3430 Never said clubs like Barça didn’t. I’m talking about the clubs causing a shift in the economics of the football market. It’s actually part of the reason why Barça are in tatters now with €1.3B worth of debt.
@@TheBomber15 so it's the fault of 2 clubs. 2 clubs with money and they chose to spend it so they can be the best. U wrong there. Barca didnt manage their funds correctly and that's why they in this situation while city and psg manage their funds properly so thats why they can spend that much.
Grealish shud hav been in sum other club cuz there was a gud chemistry in man city's last season's team but with grealish now idk whether they will be able to perform lyk last season
I think he’s a good player. But 100 million? He’s a poster boy, England always likes to build poster boys, as they are important for British society in hundreds of ways, which inflated the price. He’s good, but there’s no way that he’s even close to be worth 100 million pounds. He will be a rotation player in city, so I don’t really think that money was well applied. But to be honest between this and united splashing out 80 for maguire who barely knows how to play football, I’ll pick jack anyway.
They played 59 games last season, some premier league sides only play 40. AC Milan were doing this in the late 80s and early 90s, utd did in the 90s and 00s, Chelsea did it in the 00s and 10s, Liverpool did it in the 80s, whenever one team dominates for any length of time they also appear to dominate the transfer market but in reality that's just because they've made better transfers than other teams that get better results on the pitch. Utd could have bought grealish they chose the cheaper option of de beek because he'd played champions league football. They definitely could have afforded grealish, now tell me do you think utd made the right decision? Will de beek represent better value than grealish?
@@StoutProper its really not abt that. Its about the sensibility that united said we wont pay 70 odd million for a player who will be rotated. We already have rashford, pogba and bruno in the positions that grealish plays or can play, we wanted to replace the likes of lingard and pereira.. so we said no we'll not pay 70 instead get the cheaper yet technically sound player in van de beek. The reason ppl are saying it was unnecessary is bcoz city already have more than 3+ players in the positions grealish plays, sterling foden on the left de bruyne bernardo gundogan in the centre and ferran torres mahrez in the right channel.. thats why nobody criticized city when they signed nathan ake. That deal reeks of desperation and is a very bad deal but since he was atleast cheap and was going to be a bench player anyways it was fine. In case of grealish youre paying 100 mil for taking away villa's best player and villa will be handicapped for the 3 seasons until they don't get the full money. Now villa might have gotten into europe with grealish, and now even with the signings of bailey it will take time for them to setttle and maybe they might lose out.
How interesting, with the entire league against us we still manage to run the show, can’t believe the nonchalance at which the coordination between other clubs against city is mentioned. Will make the title all the more sweeter this year i suppose
@@KTK44 righto champion, have a look at how much Manchester utd have spent without winning a thing? If you don’t think money is a part of professional level sport then the reality is, your view of reality is just plain wrong and should be reconsidered

Rubbish clubs who can't win anything without spending their grandma's life savings. You don't run any show, you even sound like a plastic fan.
They used to happen more often than they do currently. Problem is, even if the clubs agree on the swap, the players have to as well, both of them, players have more power now in deciding their destinations than before when this used to happen more frequently. Even in Football Manager a player can refuse the deal.
i sort of agree here. however, Lukaku has been at top tier clubs 90% of his career; he's adjusted and met the challenges he faced. Grealish will (hopefully) as well. only time will tell though.
I thought that the picture shown was of Grealish's actual family until I was told it wasn't.

Before Grealish city never spent over 60m for any single players. Some other top club who did (arsenal, mu and liverpool) are out of UCL for a good decade with same wealth. And dont act like Liverpool players before cash from Coutinho left are paid with leaves. You just cant accept City manage their football right .
Shows the power and importance of a buy-out clause.
I’m no pro pundit but I think City are going to regret buying such a luxurious player to a packed attacking midfield now Chelsea and United have bought GTD top scorers.
Why do city need Grealish tho? He needs city not the other way round. They should have gone all out for Kane- Harry Kane wins City the UCL, Grealish doesn’t. City already have Foden, Sterling, Mahrez anyway.
@Rock Grealish hasn’t turned up (assisted or scored) in any of the finals he played for villa…
1:53 Cast from Peaky Blinders 🤣
Crazy that the release clause was written in Latin. Definitely secretive. 0:33
Not actual family, nah I'm dead. 🤣
What a thumbnail 👌
$100 million for a back up player. Lots of people with more money than sense.
More videos like these pls. Or football history stories great videos
Funniest sentence: "He wanted to know everything there is to know about City".
Fun Fact: There is nothing to know about City
Damn bro today you have achieved comedy
Give this man an MBE 👏
Top class comedy, you deserve a medal of being unfunny 👌🏾
@@TheKingslayr_11 and you deserve a medal of bad grammar
@@muzammil_babar nah I understood what he was saying
Nothing for you to know as a troll, but players would want to know the culture in that club. The training and match prep and much more stuff.
They didn't know that they could get Messi for free the next day lol
It's a waste of resources and makes it difficult for clubs without sugar daddies to compete

Grealish will soon be the most marketable english player in the world
Exactly. Already is.
Great thumbnail
All thise fools saying why we signed Grealish before Kane
Now know why
We had to in order to get Grealish
There was no drama in Grealish trasnfer.
Compare that to Kane transfer drama . Media circus.
Harry will stay another season at Spurs
Besides the fact he's English, can someone explain to me how is it that he's worth 100m? At least that is what Villa thinks of him when they inserted the clause in the contract. But the question remains. He's truly worth 100m??
As you said 100m is what Aston Villa want for him and Man City wanted him so
Jack Grealish is no 100m player, what a massive waste of money by City.
Harry Kane must be kicking himself watching this video
"Not actual family". That made me laugh. Very Python-esque.
Pep only wanted Grealish
So dat he could take some hair from him
Is dat simple
Grealish hair gel merchant
@@George-eu6hk 🤣yup bro
I can't dislike Grealish.
Unpopular sentiment, but part of me hopes he goes on to lift the UCL.
Is it just me or did anybody else not learn anything new from this?
Honestly are there people out there actually paying to read football stories? You know what they say about a fool and money
A bargain. They got him for the price of 80% of a whole Southampton FC.
He looks happier
Inside story: Pep wanted a new toy to play and Papa Sheikh bought him one.
To be honest this could have more to do with merchadising and sponsors than the actual sporting side of things. Grealish was a hot property, and now that he is in a winning team, shirt sales will skyrocket.
I just hope they didn't pay 100 M to then use him as a benchwarmer
@@mafiousbj the thing is grealish works for city. He really does. His respect for de bruyne is gonna make sure he has his ego in check, he is a guardilola type player. I see this transfer working out great.
@@jainalmiraz5409 rest in peace Ferna and Rodri from exhaustion. If you are going to play KDB and Grealish together expect to be ripped apart in the counter. + Grealish is just a slight upgrade on Bernardo and nothing special/won't fit the system.
@@ynwafanmrks1817 bernardo silva is the reason cancel gets forward. His tireless pressing is the reason city work well. And de bruyne tracks back, so does foden, and mahrez always supports walker on the wings. The passing will not ba an issue, the problem is that the mid could get congested, with grealish de bruyne and foden all trying to get down the middle.
Not hating but i just don't see grealish worth anywhere near 100mil
Please do the Lukaku one too :)
This story already told by Aston Villa chairman.. no need for this video.. everyone can just go to Villa's twitter and watch the video from the CEO
Great vid. But absolutely ridiculous from City. 100 mil on a player that will be a bench player for a lot of the season. Instead of focusing on Haaland or any other player. And hopefully Leon Bailey becomes everything he's shown he can be and move to another club. It's like saint maxim at newcastle!
What’s the song name of the music?
How do you know all this?
37 degree celsius temperature in footballing terms is called "Ice cold"
Isn't that hotter than the human body?
@@Stegibbon slightly colder buddy
@@lukewilkinson7705 hardly icy lol
Although Grealish is class I really don't think he adds THAT much more than what City's current players do. Surely for that money they could've got a world class striker or defensive midfielder. Guess when you're that wealthy you end up buying players because you can more than because of necessity, i.e. Ake, Torres.
lol its mid February... what has he done so far?
Back to back PL winner and in a UCL final you over weight bum
£100 is a scandalous amount of money for any player, let alone for Grealish.
The amount of damage that PSG and City have done to the football economy and it’s inflation will be difficult to reverse. If only FFP was actually any good.
Like other clubs dont spend that amount of money
@@zafar3430 I’m not saying they don’t, but they caused the inflation and the reason other clubs spend that now also; which trickles down to clubs lower down the pyramid not being able to sustain a cost structure.
And what was the transfer that caused that inflation across the European game? Neymar’s to PSG. It was the highest % spend over the previous world record fee in the modern game, which considering how high transfer fees already were prior to it is ridiculous. These thing dictate market value. The Grealish fee is now being used as a benchmark for the like of the Kane deal - i.e. if Grealish cost x, this player now must cost y.
I’m not saying the clubs following suit aren’t being daft either, but if you can’t see the damage PSG and City are doing specifically, then your opinion has no weight to it.
The thing is these fees that they pay are in fact purposefully strategic, done to actually drive inflation, because they know they are the two clubs who can actually spend at that level, which reduces competition in the market place. They’ve expanding they’re own power, and it’s bad for sport.
@@TheBomber15 look at barcelona. They bought 3 players for 100+ million in a short space of time and now they are broke . the neymar deal maybe have started it but many other clubs also spend big money.
@@zafar3430 Never said clubs like Barça didn’t. I’m talking about the clubs causing a shift in the economics of the football market. It’s actually part of the reason why Barça are in tatters now with €1.3B worth of debt.
@@TheBomber15 so it's the fault of 2 clubs. 2 clubs with money and they chose to spend it so they can be the best. U wrong there. Barca didnt manage their funds correctly and that's why they in this situation while city and psg manage their funds properly so thats why they can spend that much.
Grealish shud hav been in sum other club cuz there was a gud chemistry in man city's last season's team but with grealish now idk whether they will be able to perform lyk last season
Don't be daft him de bruyne and sterling will gel well watch
Do you speak English?
I think he’s a good player. But 100 million? He’s a poster boy, England always likes to build poster boys, as they are important for British society in hundreds of ways, which inflated the price. He’s good, but there’s no way that he’s even close to be worth 100 million pounds. He will be a rotation player in city, so I don’t really think that money was well applied. But to be honest between this and united splashing out 80 for maguire who barely knows how to play football, I’ll pick jack anyway.
City are killing football. I hope the FA and the PL sort them out soon.
Before Grealish city never spent over 60m for any single players. But sure lets ignore other top club who did (arsenal, mu and liverpool)
Donny VB over Grealish FOR VALUE?!?!?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Honestly it seems like City are ruining many careers as they can’t give everyone enough playing time🤷♂️
They played 59 games last season, some premier league sides only play 40. AC Milan were doing this in the late 80s and early 90s, utd did in the 90s and 00s, Chelsea did it in the 00s and 10s, Liverpool did it in the 80s, whenever one team dominates for any length of time they also appear to dominate the transfer market but in reality that's just because they've made better transfers than other teams that get better results on the pitch. Utd could have bought grealish they chose the cheaper option of de beek because he'd played champions league football. They definitely could have afforded grealish, now tell me do you think utd made the right decision? Will de beek represent better value than grealish?
You mean like utd with van de beek?
@@StoutProper Yeah you’re right, Utd should have used van de beek better.
@@StoutProper its really not abt that. Its about the sensibility that united said we wont pay 70 odd million for a player who will be rotated. We already have rashford, pogba and bruno in the positions that grealish plays or can play, we wanted to replace the likes of lingard and pereira.. so we said no we'll not pay 70 instead get the cheaper yet technically sound player in van de beek. The reason ppl are saying it was unnecessary is bcoz city already have more than 3+ players in the positions grealish plays, sterling foden on the left
de bruyne bernardo gundogan in the centre and ferran torres mahrez in the right channel.. thats why nobody criticized city when they signed nathan ake. That deal reeks of desperation and is a very bad deal but since he was atleast cheap and was going to be a bench player anyways it was fine.
In case of grealish youre paying 100 mil for taking away villa's best player and villa will be handicapped for the 3 seasons until they don't get the full money. Now villa might have gotten into europe with grealish, and now even with the signings of bailey it will take time for them to setttle and maybe they might lose out.
bruh who's carrer did city ruin tho?
so much salt in these comments, Jesus😂😂😂
PL Clubs,and Football Authorities joined hands
To stop City by Foul Means
Media outlets wont write on it
😂😂
50-70 mil would be fine but not 100mil
Waste of money
Fill up your car so city can buy a new star
His playing style isn't helping city at all
If he wasn't English
and now van de beek is being treated horribly
Enjoyed it. Btw this vid deserves more views
If city get ronaldo that city pag game gonna be goated
Tifo daily 🥰
How interesting, with the entire league against us we still manage to run the show, can’t believe the nonchalance at which the coordination between other clubs against city is mentioned. Will make the title all the more sweeter this year i suppose
Spends a butt load of oil money, still can't even win the Champions League.
@@KTK44 righto champion, have a look at how much Manchester utd have spent without winning a thing? If you don’t think money is a part of professional level sport then the reality is, your view of reality is just plain wrong and should be reconsidered
@@fwanchmen You need to work on your english. And yes, Man U, Man C and Chelsea all spends butt loads of money, but Man C still can't win the Champions League. Rubbish clubs who can't win anything without spending their grandma's life savings. You don't run any show, you even sound like a plastic fan.
@@KTK44 id also argue that the coordination in question is evidence enough of the fact we are running the show!! Enjoy delusion my simple friend
so basically grealish had a "secret" release clause in his contract . That aston villa only made a 100m . Seems a bit dodgy there from City
Wonder how much he would have been sold for, had villa been relegated
_Villa_ have reinvested well.
The inside story: FFP is meaningless.
This was a not too bad!!
Footballers do not bother reading their contracts.
Player swaps never happen outside of Football Manager.
They used to happen more often than they do currently. Problem is, even if the clubs agree on the swap, the players have to as well, both of them, players have more power now in deciding their destinations than before when this used to happen more frequently. Even in Football Manager a player can refuse the deal.
So out of the 100 million does grealish get?
Grealish mainly sits on the bench cuz Foden plays his position & hes better
Trust
Not anymore
I like Jack but I don't see 100mil. I don't think he's worth more than Lukaku
i sort of agree here. however, Lukaku has been at top tier clubs 90% of his career; he's adjusted and met the challenges he faced. Grealish will (hopefully) as well. only time will tell though.
