This keeps being said, but it doesn’t hold any water. Grealish has been very poor THIS season. Now we’re at the business end of the season he’s seeing his game time being severely limited because he’s simply not producing.
He maybe be better next season, it there’s nothing to indicate this. People talk about Mahrez, Bernardo, Rodri etc in their first season, but they’d all shown what they could offer to City. Grealish has so far shown that he is very much likely not up to it sadly. I hope i’m wrong.
But last night we were desperate for a result, Pep rather than risking another pointless 90 minutes from Grealish left him out in favour of an off form Gundogan and Bernardo & Foden who looked visibly exhausted at weekend..
