peach0000 Posted 5 August 2021 Share Posted 5 August 2021 Villa have said that the 100 million was a release clause. Presumably that means Man City had to pay it all in one go? Massive fee to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not one for going on other teams forums but it is great reading. They need to get a sense of perspective of where they are as a club. As long as players leave in the right way, for a big fee to win trophies I don't see how anyone can abuse them. Especially when they've been such an amazing player for their club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think it an attempt to manage fans expectations that they shouldn’t expect more players as a result of the move.

Leicester_Loyal Posted 5 August 2021 Share Posted 5 August 2021 Weird how some of them are taking it so personally. If we were in their position and Barnes wanted to leave us in 3 or 4 years I'd say fair play go and win some trophies Mr. Leicester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been with them 19 years, and like his leaving statement said, He's helped take them to the top tier of English football. You can tell he bleeds Villa, but you can't blame him for wanting to play regular Champions League football, not to mention how it will no doubt help him become one of the first names on the England team sheet eventually. If he is boo'd on his return to Villa Park... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Md9 Posted 5 August 2021 Share Posted 5 August 2021 Villa fans are morons hey. Yeah let’s stay and work with dean smith and play along side Matt targett instead of playing for guardiola and along side de Bruyne 😂 very few players outside the top 4 teams would not go there if they had the chance. They can’t moan about him being disloyal for wanting him to win something and play in the champions league he pretty much got them to where they are now. Hopefully they have a shocking season and go down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets Old John Hill renamed to Messi Mountain and maybe a couple of the peacocks from the Grey's manor as pets. Take it or leave it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
