after Villa - need to brush up your enthymeme skills.He’s not had a career after City.
Think yo may have hit the nail on the head here. It seems the Treble winning sides older players may have rested on their laurals, and Pep has hopefully seen this and needs to clear them before they rub off on the younger players. These player have been fantastic for us but it’s one season too many. (Walker, Grealish, Bernardo, Ederson) injuries not been kind to Stones, Ake, and KDB. They deserve there moment but now is the time to go.Clearly not a conventional lad with perhaps an issue......but has been man managed appallingly since Istanbul. Not helped himself perhaps - another argument ..... but Pep could have done better surely.
This is similar to sterling but worse. Before the lyon game he was as undroppable as kev. The next season suddenly he wasn't a guarenteed starter and it got worse as time went on. Obviously it never got as bad as whats happening for grealish but pep has done this before for players he liked a lot more than grealish.Pep has an issue with him - that’s clear. But every player from the treble season and added to that Kova gets loyalty from Pep and game time even though it’s clear some don’t deserve to play. Grealish is getting the Kalvin Phillips treatment at this point and the strangest thing is when he has actually been given minutes recently he has performed better than most of those I’ve just mentioned. Peps cutting off his nose it would seem
Looking back at the treble celebrations they were great at the time but if you make yourself the main attraction at any parade you have to follow it up with the same quality of performances after.He has been posting alot of reels of him at villa at late, recon he has been told his days are numbered and is hoping to get a move back there.
Shame he couldn't remain professional, wheels well and truely fell off after the treble celebrations.
On the pitch, or at the bar ?Looking back at the treble celebrations they were great at the time but if you make yourself the main attraction at any parade you have to follow it up with the same quality of performances after.
Hoping the Spurs and Newcastle interest is true already.The question is regarding grealish, would you lose any sleep over him if sold this summer.
It's a no from me
I'd rather sell Doku this summer, but I'm biased since I don't rate Doku very much and Grealish brings things to the team that Doku and Savinho don't.The question is regarding grealish, would you lose any sleep over him if sold this summer.

And Doku brings things the others don’t, and at 22 has the potential to be coached in to a better version.I'd rather sell Doku this summer, but I'm biased since I don't rate Doku very much and Grealish brings things to the team that Doku and Savinho don't.
Our wing play is poor regardless of who's out there because both wings are marked by 2-3 defenders, our build up is snail paced and there's no movement in the middle.
