For you, not me. His control, retention and recycling of the ball are pretty brilliant imo.

He was a standout against Arsenal in the 4-1 victory against Arsenal but don’t remember much else individually he’s done.
Which is what any half decent technical winger could do. At a bare minimum. Mahrez used to offer that but also scored 15 goals and 15 assists and was also never injured.For you, not me. His control, retention and recycling of the ball are pretty brilliant imo.

It's about the system and team as a whole - well it was until we undermined it.
No it isn’t. It’s just an excuse for people like you who are grealish fan boys. Grealish was lucky he was the only one who could replicate the control that Bernardo and mahrez could offer on the right. If either were able to play on the left jack would not have started imo. The only other option we had on the left was foden and he does not offer the same control grealish offers (although he does offer a goal threat)Again - for you.

Difference being mahrez would score plenty when he started and Bernardo would score big goals (Madrid being the main example). We won the treble in spite of grealish not because of him.
In regards of change of the system perhaps if grealish was available more often maybe we wouldn’t have had to do that. Instead his off the pitch activities have made him unreliable due to increase of injuries and poor training which has led to pep leaving him out the squad totally (such as Fulham away in the midst of a title race).
Jack hasn’t scored in 2024. That in itself is frankly pathetic

Calling people "fan boys", obsessed with goals rather than build and possession leading to record goals and trophies, calling his contribution post injury, and other issues, "pathetic". We"ll leave it there.No it isn’t. It’s just an excuse for people like you who are grealish fan boys.

& that’s the part I don’t understand. Does it matter that he’s just a cog in the machine & not the main man for individual moments of brilliance if we’re winning things, seeing as it’s a team game?He was a huge part of the team effort but there have been next to no moments of brilliance that he will be remembered for.
We all see different things during a game, but for me, we almost always seem to have a wee bit more balance to the team when he plays
Yes it does matter, we are now in a huge dip, Grealish is one of the more experienced players and should become a leader in this situation, he simply isn't.& that’s the part I don’t understand.

Play him at the fucking 8 or 10!!!!!!!!
He has to be given a go in the middle. It doesn’t matter that he’s never been a regular there for Villa or us. In the here and now, our current CMs are nowhere near the required level. We need to give someone else a chance in there.
