Jack Grealish

[Coatigan]

It’s about success. The players know that being here means they are competing for every single trophy available. They’re not here for the name of the club. They love it here at the moment, but should we start becoming Arsenal, then we wouldn’t be able to attract the most ambitious, best players.

That is true for all clubs.




Apart from Liverpool, obviously.

 

[SWP's back]

So you think 90% of out current squad, don't give a fuck that they are playing for City?

No, I’m sure they’re ecstatic to be playing for Manchester City for the reasons I stated, they get paid the most (or very close to and certainly the top end of the going rate) and they have the chance to win trophies every season. But don’t confuse that with the blind loyalty you get from fans. How many do you think would stay at City if we were relegated a division?

That’s not having a go at the players in any way, shape or form. It’s just a reality and I’m very sorry if it’s upsetting to hear. It doesn’t mean players don’t fall in love with the club or our fans. Far from it, plenty do, but I’m sure you’ve been in love several times throughout your life, it doesn’t mean you stay together with that person.

His passing and creativity is underrated. Would be brilliant in our midfield, Grealish has what Foden has the ability to glide passed players.

True,I genuinely don't think most of those negatively commenting on his ability have watched him for any meaningful period.
Hopefully a pleasant surprise awaits them!

Very true. I think we can all agree Paul dickov is a massive blue since his time playing for us, but even he celebrated like a loon when he scored against us after he left. It’s a job for them first and foremost

Dickov has become a ”massive” blue to follow the gravy train. He goes round the world business class telling everyone how good we are.

It pays his bills.

Only De Bruyne played more key passes per game, and only three players completed more dribbles per game (Adama Traore, Saint-Maximin and Zambo-Anguissa) than Grealish in the Premier League

Looking at some of those that voted “no”, actually watching him will likely make no difference. But fuck it, maybe they can see something that Pep can’t.

I wouldn't be that worried about him going to a rival tbh.

If he goes to United it stops them getting Sancho who is a better player.
He wouldn't get in Chelsea's team and I doubt they're even in for him.
Spurs is probably his level and he's hardly going to elevate them to title contenders.

Grealish is the better player now, but they are basically completely different types of players, it's pointless to compare them, it's like comparing KDB to Sterling xd

Bullshit from start to finish. Do you even watch football matches that City aren’t involved in?

Thought the last part was pretty accurate. Prime Maradona wouldn't make Spurs title contenders.

“Spurs is probably his level...” was the issue. I’d agree Messi wouldn’t make them contenders at present.

I think you’ve misinterpreted @SWP's back’s comment.

They certainly give a fcuk that they are playing for a successful, high profile club.

Whether that’s unstinting love for the sky blue and rainy skies is a rather different matter.

I can assure you Paul loves the club and started doing so well before we were any good. So does Andy Morrison, Kevin Horlock and Shaun Goater.

No doubt, but he’s a professional fan now. I’m not trying to belittle him, merely point out that it’s in his interest to do it.

Let’s not forget Hinchcliffe

Lol. Oh yeh forgot. Big big fan ;)))

 

[SambaStyle]

Honestly think this guy is a top 3 player in the league, amazing player

Easy does it. He wouldn’t even be one of the top 3 players here. Good player though.

We have seen it in recent days, the genuine fear that if we sign Kane, they might as well all pack up and go home for the next five years.

We have got to take advantage of this genuine fear, rip their fucking hearts out and do maximum damage this summer.

We need to maintain the gap and you do that by crushing hope.

Grealish and Kane in those teams you mention closes the gap too close for comfort.

I remember me staying at a villa one summer in Val De Lobo, swimming in the pool, drinking margaritas and enjoying life.

Next minute, fucking Sky breaking news, United agree to sign Van Nistelrooy for £19m and Veron for £28m.

I was fucking livid, wife told me to chill, but I sobered up pretty quickly, those bastards were buying from a position of strength.

It's our turn now. Man City ruining summer holidays since 2021!!

I’m motivated by that bollocks I saw on BT when Rio shouted Joe Cole down for saying Kane should pick City over United... we need to open the gap between ourselves and United so that its impossible for them to catch us,.. no mercy. The likes of Rio need to see, taste and feel reality.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

Foden and Grealish in the same side would be great. If all these rumours are true we will have the core of the England side
