Villa sporting director came out to explain the whole Grealish move. Fair play, wish our board is this transparent and honest.
Not sure if replace 1 player with 3 lousier ones works though as Spurs found out after Bale
What choice did they have though? At the end of the day the players have the power and Grealish wanted out. You either become competitive or you lose your best and brightest, we'll find that out soon if we don't make major changes.
Indeed. It's going to be hard to get over losing such a key player but they've signed two good young players who can develop further and a proven striker who ought to hit the ground running. Seems like a pretty sensible strategy to me.

I don't get it, why can't they just not register whatever overpaid has-beens they have on their books that they want to get rid of, rather than not register their new signings?
