I'm the same as Monty. I'm just a daydreamer with romantic notions, I'm afraid. I'll let Unai work out what players we sign and if we can make things work. But I'd be really, really happy if Jack came back and won the league with us. It'd be a nice "thank you", in the same way that I'm chuffed Tyrone Mings, Dougie, and Tammy all picked up a winners' medal this time round.
He doesn't deserve that.
He's not just another player, he was supposed to be a Villa fan.
I don't give a shit about the logical 'we'd all have done the same thing if we were him' bollocks. We're not in it for logic. If we were, we'd all conclude that supporting a football club is nonsensical, bail and the club would fold.
I don't hate him, but he made his bed, and he can lie in it.
I also don't give a shit about romanticism. He could've thought about what might be romantic instead of trying to leave every summer, and eventually achieving it.
If he were still any good, maybe. But he's not. Fuck him and any notion of a 'dream homecoming'. He thought he was better than us, and now we're better than him.
He can fuck off.
