Anyone notice that Foden was just the same as Grealish for much of his time on the left today? That position is cursed I tell ya.

If thats what Pep is asking then thats fine, fans asking him to to something Pep isn’t asking would be pretty stupid. How is it frustrating if Pep asks him to do a job for the team and the team wins. Frustrating would be him not doing it and we drop points. In that case though Pep wouldn’t pick him. Just ask Thiery Henry what happens when you ignore Peps instructions.

It was tongue in cheek :)

The common denominator is Pep.I am not suggesting its wrong as it clearly brings success,but his style and his tactics will always lend themselves to the collective rather than the individual.

Look at Grealish at Villa and with England,likewise Phil and Sterling.......all had/have more poetic licence and freedom,and individually they make a greater impact.

At this point I’m certain you are either related to grealish or a parody account.

3 things worred me today re grealish. Firstly he tried a simple pass to an overlapping cancelo but under hit the pass and as a result the defender blocked the cross. Secondly during a quick counter attack grealish had the Fulham cb one v one and the Fulham defender easily disposed him. Thirdly grealish tried a cross with his left foot and the ball sailed out for a goal kick. Not to mention his attempted shot where he tried to bend it in the far corner, a goal mahrez has made a career from scoring in similar situations.

People can blame pep or whatever else all they want but the three incidents during todays match is just down to grealish’s lack of execution. He isn’t good enough to start for us but he is a useful squad player. Shame he cost 100 mil as if he cost 40 (which is probably about right) I’m sure people would be more positive re him
 
Plenty of the ball first half hour, did nothing with it at all though.

After the sending off we finally had a use for his often talked about ability to carry the ball up the pitch, something thats never normally required but we struggled to get out of the back line with a man down second half so this was a big chance for him to put in a statement performance and instead he was non-existent.
 
Not that I'm too bothered whether he goes or not,although he will be,but I think he will be leaving his passport in the drawer in a fortnight.

Then again he could go to Ibiza for a week or two
 
Best not to dwell on negatives when we’ve had such a positive day but Jack never assists or scores and I think he takes game time from others which is a pity, I never wanted us to buy him, I’m not his biggest fan but I want him to do well
