10 | Jack Grealish - 2024/25

Ironic thing is the ball carrying creative central midfielder he was at Villa is exactly what we are crying out for now, not saying he can be that here , but what we bought isnt what we have now and some of that has to be down to the coaching he has received.

overrated before he came here...and still is

I think Jack must be definitely high up on the list of players we are looking to offload.

He has scored one goal in 12 months give or take.

He is one of the most one dimensional players we’ve ever had, he does the same thing every game, Ajren Robben did the same thing in a lot of games but the majority of the time there was an end product with Grealish there isn’t.

Maybe a bad comparison to compare Grealish with Robben but what a player he was.

Corner leading to their penalty was fucking criminal. I’ve seen some near post corners in my time but that one took the piss. It barely reached!

He is a marketing dream and I think he probably pays his way quite comfortably even if he is on 300k plus. He's also a decent player if not world class so I imagine he is nowhere near the exit..

Think he has something to offer but honestly it's better we cut our ties, he's not good enough for the wages he's on

Finding a buyer will be the tricky thing

terrible flashbacks to the Bernabeu in the European Cup a few seasons ago.....

Up there with our most disappointing signings in recent memory. I have genuinely never seen what he brings to the team aside from drawing fouls and backwards passing. £100m fee, and £300k a week. He's mugged everyone right off.

A full year without scoring a goal for us, 0 goals in 44 matches.
11 goals and 12 assists in 86 league matches.

Those stats are unbelievably below par. I would say we need to offload him but i cant see there being any interest for the fee we'd likely demand, or at his obscene wages. i fear we're just going to be stuck with him for the next 2 and half years as he rakes in £300k a week.

I cannot see another PL team pay this kind of salary to him. neither clubs abroad, unless Saudi...

he even needs to up his game for us to be able put him in the shop window. all the outrage of him not making the Euros, yet I cannot recall when he had two great games in a row for us. wonder how Tuchel will approch him, as he is another top level manager unlike Southgate.

Grealish's impact on the game goes beyond G/A stats. Its crazy that people still haven't realized this after all this time. He simply makes the team better. He improves the chances of the ball arriving in situations where there is greater danger of scoring, and he prevents the other team from doing that. Grealish is the quintessential Pep player with his technique, intelligence and workrate. I don't understand how as a Man City fan you can love Pep but hate Grealish.
