10 | Jack Grealish - 2024/25

[jamielowndes]

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!

Not even Peps worst signing. Let alone worst ever.

Our worst ever? Really?

On a value for money and return on money spent basis, then yes, 100%.

Approaching £150m in fees and wages for what? And don't tell me he runs around and keeps possession.

Definitely a big disappointment, signed with high hopes for him…….time to move him on

Rather than spend more money this season perhaps along with McAtee give them a try in midfield although it is only a short term solution.

To be fair he does keep possession.Sadly the same amount of goals that I have scored for City this year.lol.if

 

[Barcon]

I wouldn't call it bizarre. It's not unfair to suggest Jack has flopped.

"He is without any shadow of doubt, our worst ever signing" is a long way from, "suggesting Jack has flopped".

 

[Dax777]

I love Jack. But the club should be in a ruthless mode. And Jack won't make that cut if they are.

 

[Belgian Flash]

I would agree with this if he was doing any of this recently. He isn't. Not nearly as impactful as he was in the treble season.

Feyenoord especially, he contributed next to nothing.

I've seen him play well for City. He isn't doing that consistently at the moment.

He isn't playing consistently enough at the moment to be honest.

 

[cjn]

Can't believe I missed it but yesterday was the one year anniversary of his last goal.
