10 | Jack Grealish - 2024/25

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Watching Grealish is like waiting for your first blow job as a teenager. You've heard about how good it is but have never experienced it.

[Keeper!]

Last night summed up his time with us, could and should be far better.

He is a better player than we see most weeks, or is he?

 

[Blue Maverick]

Too slow, doesn’t beat a man, doesn’t shoot, slow decision making but apart from that he’s a top lad!

 

[OrigamiNinja]

He has never got those numbers though, so surely nobody is surprised he hasn't all of a sudden become this goalscoring winger people expect.

Pep wanted him, badly enough to break transfer records and waited several weeks for him to sign. It wasn't for his goal scoring was it.

I would be amazed if there aren’t senior people at the club (including Pep) who didn’t think that Jack would kick on goals and assists wise in a City shirt. You don’t go from Sane and Sterling offering G/A aplenty, to someone you don’t believe can offer up similar numbers and pay £100m for the privilege. You could say it was poor recruitment/foresight based on what he had done at Villa and there may be an element of truth to that but a lot of this is on Jack. Theres been countless wide men in the PL over the years, many with a fraction of his ability, who have managed to consistently find the back of the net, so there are no excuses for him. These days he seems more concerned with winning free kicks, than he does football matches. Imagine not scoring in a year in this side.

I don't remember him even being particularly exceptional at Villa.

From what I recall, he was just good for a Villa player.

Has he really not scored a club goal, in any competition, in 2024?

30 appearances without a goal now. It’s not like he’s been racking up assists in that time either.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

He did ok but was understandably fooked from about 65 mins. I know we want Phil for Sunday but that was the wrong sub for me.

 

[GaslightAnthem]

14 goals in 137 games… you’d hope 100m would get you more than that surely. I don’t care if he keeps the ball or drawers foul. NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

 

[red 2 hats]

Time for Jack to step up to the plate, his play is very predictable, his goals and assists are way behind where they should be, needs to start being more positive and influencing games, he's one of the senior players.
