That's what Bartomeu does, not Barcelona. Anyway, my point still stands. Guardiola could have bought a striker or an out and out left winger to replace Sane. Grealish is a good player, but I don't see what he provides that Bernardo or Gundogan can't.
So me being a Barca fan invalidates whatever opinion I have about a player?
You brought up Coutinho, which kind of supports my point. He was a waste of money and everyone on our fanbase regrets it.
And as for the last part, I really don't care. Bring whatever insult you want, I don't care.
Will Grealish improve under Pep? Most likely, yes.
Will he be the difference maker for City, i.e will he be the one to lead City to Champions League glory, the guy that drags the team along when things aren't going well? I don't think so.
He might go on to become City's best player in a...
People comparing Grealish to Gundogan and Bernardo really need a reality check. Go look up Gundogan and Bernardo's achievements. Grealish is way behind those two. I still don't understand the hype surrounding Grealish. Yes, he was Villa's best player, but it's not like he singlehandedly led them...
Imagine that Sterling or Mahrez were putting in the exact same performance as Grealish and with the same output and game time. What would your reaction be? Would you praise them for playing a through ball to a fullback and then fail to score or assist? Or would you demand that they be dropped so...
I always felt that in a false 9 system, the wingers would be given more freedom to cut in rather than sticking out wide. Having the wingers hugging the touchline seems pointless as it reduces the goal threat. Look at Liverpool, Salah and Mane cut in frequently and Firmino drops deep and then the...
I can see you are a die-hard Grealish fan boy. Guardiola will never change his system for Grealish, let's get that right. Grealish's best attributes are things he has to hold back on in order to fit into the team, which just makes you wonder, what was the point of the signing? De bruyne is...
And you forgot to mention that those players were regularly benched so that others who were performing better could play. Grealish has shown nothing to indicate he should be an undisputed starter.
So you're saying Pep needs to change his entire system just to fit Grealish in? If he doesn't slot in right away, then what was the point of spending a hundred million on him?
You can't play him there because there's nothing he provides that de bruyne, Silva or Gundogan don't. Silva brings energy into the midfield and he works hard defensively. De bruyne can unlock a tight defence with a simple pass or cross and he shoots too. Gundogan was City's highest goal scorer...
When will you all admit that Grealish is not what this team needs? He hasn't had a standout game where he justified his price tag this season. He's been shit. Foden and Sterling (in form) offer way more than he does. 100 million on a player that doesn't improve the starting 11
