exactly that was the perfect execution of a pass, I have even seen david silva mess up those passes before. seems like it is clear that some here have an agenda against Jack succeeding. just disappointed in our fansSay what you want but not giving him credit for the pass to Cancelo is just silly.
Not only did he put the perfect weight on it and put it in the perfect position for a first time effort but the most impressive part was that he waited for the perfect time to release it when it would have been so tempting to play it one or even two seconds earlier.
That's what playmaking is all about. Cancelo's run deserves credit and their crap defensive line deserves criticism but "the ball don't lie", as they say across the pond.
Are you really that stupid to make a comment like that ???And what is his position, and what would he do if he played in what ever position he apparently is, Cos according to his career so far it's fuck all.
I don’t, Never knew what hole he’s supposed to to fill, direct your anger elsewhereThis season? What makes you think he's suddenly going to start doing something hes never done? His prem league goal ratio is 0.15 a game, 16 goals in 105 games , raz best prem goals is 19 so you think grealish is gonna score 20 this season?
Genuine question..where did Grealish play for Villa...in what position predominantly?
Where he plays for us. But he was basically given the freedom to roam wherever he wanted and ended up in the 10 position a lot.
Left winger in name only - actually an attacking midfielder.
And more like a free roaming attacking midfielder.
In place of who?Everyone’s giving him time no one’s saying he’s a bad buy so far. It’s just plain to see that he’s not cut out to be a winger and he wont turn into one this season.
Give him time in the middle as an ACM.

Careful, you’ll throw your back out!!!Did well last night,mostly kept the ball in tight areas,while having the attention of a couple of defenders,and brought others into play.A couple of his passes were superb and deserved a better end product,i also thought Cancelo made some poor choices where Grealish was concerned/available.
In place of no one in this current false 9 formation. That's what it is. Currently he's giving us a square peg round hole situation, because we have better players in each position under this formation. Honestly, I thought when we bought him we are going to utilise him as how he played in Villa. Free to roam from the left, like a left-lying playmaker if ever there was a term. I still believe that he's being instructed to stick with playing wide, which makes it harder for him to get into the box left-side, where he's mostly operated for Villa's 4-2-3-1 formation.In place of who?
Good point. That would work really well. Zinchenko is the most likelySuperb player but think when he's wide left, he needs to be paired with a left footed fullback who can go down the line. He and Cancelo want to do similar things and take similar positions. Worked better 2nd half when he moved more infield while Cancelo was wide and if Grealish stayed wide, Cancelo moved inside.
Just not a left winger. Cancelo goes on the outside more than Zinky ever will or could. Zinchenko could work well with his more conservative approach if Foden is there because he’ll just hold his position well and ping it down the line early to someone who can actually provide width and skin people on the outside stretching the pitch. Then again Foden and Cancelo would link up well and Foden would provide better defensive help to him than Jack does.Superb player but think when he's wide left, he needs to be paired with a left footed fullback who can go down the line.

I think Foden is better in CM personally (as probably Grealish would be too). I think he would work well with Bernardo and Rodri. Good energy. bit of pace and willingness to run with the ball, excellent technical ability and a creative passer.Just not a left winger.

he tried that multiple times and lost the ball every timeReally want Jack to start cutting in and shooting. Did it against Leipzig and it worked well, but last night looking to play the hard pass and most of the time it got intercepted.
I agree it’ll end up his best position. Only problem is I’d say he’s currently by far our most effective player on the left too. Grealish will hopefully move more centrally eventually but some competition to shift for the number 8 roles currently.I think Foden is better in CM personally (as probably Grealish would be too).

Apart from when he laid two chances on a plate for teammates who squandered them.he tried that multiple times and lost the ball every time
Trying to say he was good last night? Sterling would have got an absolute slating if he was in the fullbacks pocket as much as Jack last night.Apart from when he laid two chances on a plate for teammates who squandered them.
I'm directly answering @samuelyeboah who said Grealish "lost the ball every time" he tried to play a difficult pass. The fact he laid on two clear-cut chances, one for Cancelo and one for Mahrez, with two difficult passes is evidence that he didn't "lose the ball every time" he tried to play a difficult pass.Trying to say he was good last night?
