10 | Jack Grealish - 2022/23 Performances

[hilts]

We are not a good team at all at the moment so I don't know what that means. Grealish is in his second season now and he really needs to come into fruition, first season syndrome is out the way. We haven't bought a toddler here. Grealish needs to correct his decision making and start being a leader rather than a submissive clown.

We look like a much better side when he plays.

Feels like it’s the social media generation that have it out for him. They’re like sheep who like to target certain players

He's playing to Pep's risk averse instructions. Don't blame the orchestra when the fault lies purely with the conductor.

They live on YouTube compilations and goals/assists. They just don't know how to watch a 90 min game and dissect what they're seeing.

I'm a stats guy but there's just more to some players games in every position. I'd be curious to see what his numbers would be if we scored the 2nd assist as a stat like ice hockey does.

Thanks for the wonderful insight.

There was a point yesterday where he dribbled past 2 and should have played the ball, Instead he looked for the foul; and got it. KDB for example, skips the foul when there is an opportunity. Maybe it is an instruction thing?

Gutted for him that it wasnt the winner, well played

It is fairly common to buy fouls to get some set pieces against packed defense toward the end of the game? Especially given yesterday rags players were very short. We should improve our set pieces, though. A bit embarrassing to not generate any real danger when rags only had one real CB... I was thinking to sub Laporte for Cancelo at the last 20 mins. He was the best set piece danger we had on the bench (Stones not on the bench).

I could have written a long paragraph and called you a pillock at the end if you would have preferred that:-)

It was nice to see him actually taking on players being direct and adding to the tempo. No other fucker was doing it apart from kev in spells.

And he was giving it to the raggys in the tunnel, respect Jackie boy.

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

I thought he was decent yesterday when he came on. Him & Rodders were probably our two best players on the day.

 

[thanatos]

Was by far our best player when he was on. Funny how quietly that happened. I’m sure all the people who slate him are in this thread right now singing his praises

Didums... Pathetic post... Have you piled onto this thread to criticise his previous 18 months shite performances ... Didn't think so...
Liked his goal, energy and attitude yesterday ... Already commented on that so eat shit fanboy.

 

[Trojan1962]

Pep will probably leave him out of the squad on Thursday to keep him in his place

Lol.....cant have any of that passing forwards and looking to create opportunity shite!

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Despite the defeat that goal and performance must give him confidence , even Pep cant leave him on the bench against Spuds....................:(

Have seen the lad play for a quite a long time, whether it’s villa, england or city he improves every team he plays in with or without goals and assists.

We seen an example of that last year against United. Ran the show with no G+A to show for it. This year he got the goal and was probs our best player when he come on but ends up on the losing side and certain posters go missing again…

Gives 100 per cent every time he’s on the pitch.

 

[meeesh]

Felt sorry for him yesterday,came on scored the goal,lapped it up in front of the fans,drew a good few fouls and was looking good,then it all went tits up

 

[franksinatra]

Its the nature of being in bad form those on the bench always look like a better option. Two weeks ago everyone was demanding Foden starts and now the same demands for Jack.

Great cameo from him but we need to see it on a regular basis now and particularly when he starts.

 

[Nebuchadnezzar]

That was the celebration you want to see with those type of goals. Keep it up.

 

[Claytop]

Maybe I’m being wildly optimistic but I feel like his City ‘moment’ is going to end up being a big one, CL winner perhaps?…

No?
