Is he really as good as the hype he is getting.

Must be if top 3 club are pinning 90 million on him
If Man City get him he will play 60% of games as Grealish did

Against Palace I thought we shut him down in the game

 


Forever Palace Proud

Maybe with any transfer money they can get, they could pay for their own stadium

 


I disengage, I turn the page.

Yes, he's as good as the hype he's been getting - I think the fact that the best two teams in the country are battling for him says it all.

Grealish was a key player in City's treble win, started basically every game in the 2nd half of the season - I don't know why people persist with that narrative. He's justified his price tag and then some, phenomenal player.

Maybe with Gundogan (excuse the spelling if its wrong) going to Barcelona it leaves a gap in the Man City midfield.

I struggle to see it. Especially in the last year of his contract. But in the market he's worth what he goes for.

Apparently so, in the various Premier League stats (Opta included) he is consistently Number One for players in his role/position.

90 being offered but teams know they can let his contract run out then offer him 20 mil sign on fee and 300k a week in a year's time. West Ham won't be having the final say.
Same with Kane. No matter what Levy wants. He'll see practical sense in the end, so will West Ham.

There was an interesting post on the BBC the other day, by a WHU fan (allegedly) claiming he is not and "One of those players who everyone says how good he is but nobody has ever seen it" (not verbatim).

I found it bizarre quite frankly, I have seen him play enough I'd suggest and think he's a superb player.

Perhaps Phillips was a bit of a curve ball but I'd suggest Rice will be able to deliver, massively, wherever he goes.

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

He might be a good player but how strong does a team have to be in every position to warrent spending this much on a defensive midfielder?
Leaving aside the obvious problem what would the reaction be on here if Palace announced we were signing him for £100m?

I think Grealish is a great example of peps ability and rice at Man City will be absolutely phenomenal I’m sure. Has it all, engine, skill, game management, passing ability and above all not a prima dona. Goner go a very long way for a lot of dough.

If Riedewald's half the player Rice is, can we ask for 45mil?
