10 | Jack Grealish - 2023/24

[Odd socks]

Like Jack but he seems to be standing still when he receives the ball more often than not, difficult to get away from the defender from a standing start.
Remember Pep bollocking Sterling's body position when receiving the ball standing square.
Still a great player and character.

I noticed that as well. Great stuff from him.

He was frustrating tonight but I thought he got better as the game went on. Confident pen from him.

Thought he was poor but improved as the game went on. Which bodes well. He needs to be fully fit and sharp to be at his best and tonight will have helped. Like the way he was getting his shots off tonight.

He is a great lad as evidenced above but with Jesus Navas as your marker, he needs to play better than he did tonight. I thought he was very average. The assists and goals need to increase this season with the players we have lost. Haaland was feeding off scraps again tonight.

Thought he was fine tonight. Kept the ball vey well, put some dangerous crosses in and a couple of decent shots on target. Scored his pen too.

Me too,took as long as he could to chat to that little girl,to be fare,a few did from both teams and pep too. But you could see Jack was making sure she got attention,lovely gesture from him.

Nope

Gvardiol Grealish Rodri and Ederson are the only players performing to the high level tonight. Others are not really.

First half the left side problem is more on Kovačić(not blaming him). His mindset is too much tuchel ball. When it should go wide, he past to the right... when he should hold the position, he ran away... When he should cover Gvardiol's position to free Gvardiol, he stayed too central. That is why 2nd half Pep switched him and Foden because based on the form our attack has to build up on the left side then cross/switch to the right. Foden understood the flow better - he played actually the same position as his false 9. We built up on the left. Then Gvardiol will cross/switch to the right to Palmer(Mahrez role).

Gundo left a huge hole to fill in. Kovacic is not there yet.

He’s a character but comes up short as a footballer . His main moves are a mazy dribble back towards our centre backs or a predictable cut inside and a shot into the keeper’s hands . Navas had him in his pocket all night.
