Jack did well in the first half, controlled the ball and drove against Dumfries like a beast. Legs gone in the 2nd half but still some beautiful pass. I reckon KDB missing disturbed the normal play pattern.

Dumfries should be booked in 1st half. The ref was a disgrace.

Phil and Jack combination play is something I really look forward in the next season. Either can play as 8 or winger.
 
Had a great interview on the CBS stream with Micah, Henry, & Spitty.

Talked about how the treble was stuff of dreams but he was, in his words, "total crap" today.

Went on to say the same about his season last year, how he felt he wasn't contributing and didn't understand what Pep wanted. Mentioned something to the effect he thought he would do something good, but it wasn't what Pep had in mind, so he'd get yelled at and it took till around the World Cup for him to 'get it'.

He ended the interview pulling in Kyle Walker and asking Henry if he thought he could get past him in his prime. So typical Grealish.

I bet he's plastered out of his mind right now.
 
Such an emotionally honest person, which doesn't come without its challenges but I wouldn't have him any other way. He's clearly adored by his teammates and all the backroom staff, and I think that like most of all of his colleagues now he has a real connection to the fans.

His head's clicked since Christmas but he's lost a bit of momentum and possibly fitness since we won the league - needs the balance between regular game-time and short rests, rather than playing constantly then having a few matches off. I don't think he enjoyed the heat in Istanbul! But now he's settled and properly gets what Pep wants from him I think he'll go from strength to strength next season.

I couldn't be happier for him. You just know it means the world to him.
 
You just know he's gonna be absolutely hammered during the parade (again), and I, for one, would love to see it.

He's so well liked because he is completely relatable. You just know if he wasn't good enough to play the game for a living he would be on the terraces doing that with the rest of us (or the villa equivalent to be more precise). He loves football and I love that he loves his life and doesn't for a minute take it for granted.

What a second season. If he improves at the same rate next year is gonna be something else.
 
I just Luvv him, made me cry last night seeing his post match interview (* am mum to a son similar age) so just totally relate to him. Made up for Jack and his family.
