10 | Jack Grealish - 2021/22 Performances

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

He’s not a false 9. Tough for him today. He’s played really well so far this season

 

[Don Karleone]

Been one of our best players this season. One bad game ffs. Give him a break

 

[Trojan1962]

Still settling in but doing ok

[Akira]

Doesn't seem used to being in the striker/false 9 position. Couple times see Foden/KdB looking for someone making the run through the channel but Grealish just stands behind looking to receive the short pass, as a playmaker would do.

Sterling came on and gave the midfield a clearer option.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Doesn't have the movement or close control to play as a number 9 for me. He's not the type of player that can hold the ball up in tight spaces like Bernardo, or make clever runs like Sterling or Torres. You lose all of his best attributes playing him there. But then Phil was so good on the left that it's hard to argue that they should switch.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Strange decision playing him there but Foden did so well on the left that he probably couldn’t switch. Average game for him but hampered by what he was asked to do.

 

[SidJames]

Still finding his Feet.

I actually think his best position is more central. Like it was at Villa.

Hence why he is blowing hot and cold adapting to his new role.

Still think he is a great signing.
