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.Sterling’s first season - average
Sane first season - average
Mahrez first season - average
Rodri first season - average
Cancelo first season - average
you see a pattern here ???
it takes a lot of time to fit into this team properly.
Jack has been bang average but it’s been about 12 games into his city career. Oh and it doesn’t matter what he cost , he never set the price nor did we. He was worth £100 million to Villa.
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 City's best player and that isn't going to change (he's out of form for now but still). Grealish's standout ability is holding onto the ball long enough to draw a foul. Is that the kind of guy you spend a hundred million on?exactly if you pay 100 mil you should also change your system to suit him and get the best out of him. if not don't complain that he is not playing great.
but there are other alternatives as well....put foden back in his best position for intense which Grealish is taking up and put Sterling as the false 9 or Bernardo as the false 9 and play Sterling on the right...or dont play sterlingat all and play Mahrez or even Palmer.....
There are numerous alternatives and Grealish is a poor one at present....even int he games we have played well he hasnt exactly shone bright
Bet your Mrs doesn't send you to do the shopping :)It was a release clause wasn’t it ??
They are put in for the selling clubs gain and are always ridiculous over the top.
If it was £80 million it would still of been over paid by us.
Fact is he was wanted by our manager so it was done.
the cost would matter if it was our only money but considering there was £100 million there for Kane it wasn’t.
when Grealish doesn't score or assist people in here seem to think he's the worst player in history, just because he costed 100 mil"very poor"?
He wasn't brilliant but he was never "very poor".
He seems reluctant to shoot. When he does, he better score or he'll be on the receiving end of one of those collective groans we specialise in.
