10 | Jack Grealish - 2024/25

[kaz7]

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.

Absolute rubbish

Should give him Balon D Or as he is probably one of his kind player to ever exist and play the game

"his game is not about G/A" is something you say when a player is underperforming and i'm sick of pretending otherwise

Authentic frontier gibberish at it's finest.

No its something you say when you actually watch and analyze the game rather than just the boxscore.

If he improves the chances of us getting the ball in dangerous areas to score and prevents the opponents from doing the same… why, from our own corner, did he refuse to go forwards and instead passed back, inviting pressure onto Walker and Nunes, two players that cannot handle that pressure, leading to errors and a goal conceded? Because that sounds awfully like your theory is nonsense.

He is without any shadow of doubt, our worst ever signing. An astronomical fee, film star wages, and 3½ years of feck all. Not only was the presence of complete flops like Grealish a major contributory factor in Palmer seeing no future here, but he has haemorrhaged the club financially to boot. The only slack I can possibly give him is that Guardiola has completely coached any self-expression out of his game, but there comes a time when Grealish should have said "Wait a minute, you're killing me Pep!", and clearly he didn't.

He has been such a bad buy, he almost makes HS2 look like it's value for money!

 

[Brewster's millions]

He should be given a run of games in the middle and a proper crack of the whip at playing centrally.

Frankly I can’t see what we’ve got to lose as he couldn’t possibly play any worse than De Bruyne did on Sunday.

In the treble season he did a lot, running power going both ways and control. He allowed the others who have clearly got a better game when it comes to scoring and assisting to take centre stage. The problem obviously now is that those players are not performing to the level, whether that's due to age, form or both. So the requirement from a 100m player who wears the 10 is to be really affecting games, taking them by the scruff of the neck and doing something. In the past few seasons when we have had KDB out, Bernardo stepped up and last season it was a mix of Alvarez and Foden - Grealish just doesn't look like he has that about him.

Our worst ever? Really?
