10 | Jack Grealish - 2024/25

I think this Bobb thing got out of hands and what we expect from him.
He literally had one outstanding moment in his City career and his name has been thrown around now as some kind of a season savior.

I think you are right although I suspect that the club value his potential and were anticipating using him more in the team structure during this season, thus giving us another useful squad member.

If you are talking forum opinion, then as with most topics there are always extreme opinions, whereas the facts indicate something more in the middle.

But it is BM so who knows :)
 
LOL

His injury was a disaster, this lad is the real deal, he could be even better than Foden.

Not arguing @ Keeper, because I haven't seen much of him tbh.

Clearly he is very skilful in tight situations and has good composure as his goal against Newcastle showed, but what are his other strengths ?

Speed, agility , vision etc

I don't think people were necessarily expecting him to rip up trees every week, but Bobb had a great pre-season and it looked like this year might be equivalent to Foden's 19/20 season. From there, anything was possible. But he's basically lost a year of progress now, at a crucial age, and fans are understandably gutted for him.

I aggree, his injury has been a disaster for a lad and his prospects with us. But in brutal terms of all things football, Grealish's - and we discuss him here - injuries and Foden retirement have been much more pressing issues for us than 'could', 'should', 'would' that you attach to Bobb.

never been a heavy scorer at youth level, hell of a creator though when given the keys in the middle.

Speed, dribbling, mentality, composure and a footballing brain.

That finish at Newcastle was something very special , very few players on the planet could have finished that.

Preseason he looked like he had gone up another couple of levels, I genuinely think he could well have ripped up the league if he had not broken his leg.

Could, should, would could very much apply to Grealish and he is a vastly experienced, international player.
 
If spuds are interested in Grealish I think a straight swap for Van the man would be good business.
Van de Ven is undoubtedly the more valuable and appreciating asset—he's younger, has four years remaining on his contract, and is on lower wages. A straight swap would be excellent business for City, but not for Tottenham. I highly doubt Levy would be so naive as to agree to a straight swap for Grealish, who not only commands higher wages but will also be 30 by the time he arrives at Spurs.

If City manages to pull off a straight swap, I would be absolutely wowed! It would be nothing short of a masterstroke in negotiations. Considering the circumstances, it would feel like a huge win for City, especially given the difference in age, contract length, and future value of the players involved.
