Nailed on no , one of the more regular ones , he is.To be fair, he's hardly a nailed on starter.

You obviously aren't seeing what Pep sees either. That's okay though I wouldn't expect anyone of us to see what Pep sees
Ake maybe, but Ake is starting fairly regularly ,think he sees him differently than Mahrez and probably one of a handful of players that are pretty much interchangeable in the starting 11.Some fans like him some don't. My opinion is he does what Pep wants and that's control and he does it well enough for Pep. What some fans are expecting are things he isn't being asked to do.Pep seems to see him as a squad man. His role in the squad is no greater than that of Ake or Mahrez.
Guardiola on HaalandPep has spoken at length about what Grealish brings to the table. For 100m there is an outside expectation he is going to beat 5 players each game and score a hat trick but the figures are irrelevant for Pep, he gives instructions to the player infront of him if they are 100m or 1m. Its why hes so successful. There is no chance that Jack is sat there thinking I can't wait to get on and play safe passes so I don't get my hair out of place, he wants to get on there and single handedly take on players and try things but Pep doesn't want that out of him.
The alternative option is ending up like the rags and spending 70 odd million on the likes of Sancho and Antony who think they are playing cage football and are desperate to showboat. Thats why they are so disjointed and we put 6 past them.
“At his age no one can compete with him,” Guardiola said. “The numbers speak for themselves and inside, in the locker room, and on the pitch we see things that are not in the stats that make us feel happy to have him here"
I doubt he's doing what pep wants and what control? He's mostly stuck out wide left often in an isolated position. David Silva was the master of control, Grealish certainly isn't.My opinion is he does what Pep wants and that's control and he does it well enough for Pep.
Then go back to Peps post Newcastle match interview. He tells you exactly what control of counter attacks we didn't have with Foden and Haaland that he gets from Grealish and Mahrez.If he wasn't doing enough for Pep ,Pep wouldn't pick him as often as he does.Simple as that.I doubt he's doing what pep wants and what control?

So Pep's happy enough we paid 100M for a player just to control counter attacks? Erm, righto : /Then go back to Peps post Newcastle match interview.

Fuck off. Rag!So Pep's happy enough we paid 100M for a player just to control counter attacks? Erm, righto : /
You think he keeps picking a player based on price a price that he has no interest in, a player that doesn't do the job he wants him to. A manager that puts the team and results and winning before everything That sounds about right, must be that then.So Pep's happy enough we paid 100M for a player just to control counter attacks?
