And we don’t count the handful he missed through injury so a fairly small sample size unless you’re someone who just doesn’t rate him and feel the need to post after every game how poor he was…
Not a criticism, I was defending him, after a couple of post injury ropey games he returned into form and fitness and looked as good as at any time.

But ultimately my interest is MCFC not Jack Grealish or any individual.

Wasn’t aimed at you mate, just a general comment for those saying he’s been crap when his previous two games were anything but.
They’ve got it bad, bless’em.
 
Jack Grealish will never ever be a regular goal scorer. He never has! And it won’t change.

For me an attacking player has to contribute to goals otherwise what’s the point in being an attacking player?

He isn’t ever going to be a match winner either.

He plays in a role that pep likes as a controller of the ball. He keeps possession. That’s his role in this team. Keep rotating the ball. Creating space and angles for others. Rarely himself.

I don’t particularly like how Jack plays as a spectator, it’s risk free passing backwards and running across the pitch that may draw a foul Pep l sees this as a good thing, I find it frustrating and I see him as just a cog in a machine type player.

He’s James Milner with less versatility but a better personality.
 
I'm certainly not making up a problem. He simply has to start contributing goals.
Not one league goal between Grealish, Nunes, or Kovacic. I think people are going overboard about Doku as well he has 2 league goals in 9 .Hardly prolific either

How many PL starts does Grealish or Nunes have?
 
We didn't get him just for that though. You don't need to spend £100m to get a great free-kick winner. We clearly think he's got a lot more potential than that.
Well we clearly think he’s delivering more than just winning free kicks, Pep doesn’t pick passengers think he’ll play the next 2 and by the end of the season he’ll have played plenty, I’d guess more than Doku could be wrong.

When you're expected to win almost every game, a winger who doesn't score or assist is a passenger against all but the best teams, which is why as soon as we got an alternative in who makes an impact on the right side of the pitch Jack is suddenly no longer first choice. That suggests to me that maybe Pep isn't as thrilled with Grealish's conservative play as some people on here believe.

Against anyone except the top sides we just don't need one of our front three to be entirely focused on keeping the ball and winning free kicks.

Guess we’ll see what Pep thinks over the season.

We already start double strikers and a very good pair. We count on midfielder to score when we did not have strikers.
