I still say we try him out in midfield..

Outside of Rodri, I think he's the best player we have at shielding the ball and not losing it. He offers a lot of control.

He also carries the ball well when he has more space, which he doesn't get out wide

Conventional wisdom says he should be played in the middle but it's obviously Pep doesn't fancy him in the middle. Pep obviously knows much more than us, but I'd really love to hear from him about why he never tries it.
Like my son has just said, what do we have to lose. I'd try Jacob Wright in there with him. Just try something different, because yesterday that was the most lightweight midfield we've had for a long time.

be better thre than on the left for sure
 
Been hearing rumours he is turning up to training unfit due to being hungover. Pep is getting rid in Jan if possible.

I wouldn't blame him, having to sit and watch lightweights like Doku and Savinho picked ahead of him.

Pep's fucked up trying to change Jack's game rather than adapting to it.

I know a man, who knows someone who knows Grealish and I've known for a while through these channels that Grealish isn't being very professional

In other words, you're bang on regarding his drink issue
 
Not a chance that Grealish would be on the bench, never mind coming on if those rumors were true.
Look at the other options and what the fuck was that waving to his mates at the end of the match like he'd just performed a match winning cameo

He's finished as an elite player. He's won a couple of big trophies and is in a comfort zone
 
What relevance does him waving to some players and your opinion of him being finished have to do with the topic of is Jack a piss head.
1/ He is a piss head and has a drink problem
2/ His immediate reaction to a 4-0 home defeat to a very average spurs team is to stroll across to the east stand with a huge smile and start waving to people in a box

Is that the attitude and actions of a determined winner?

It's very obvious he really doesn't give a toss and as I said, he's won a couple of big trophies and is now in a huge comfort zone with no desire

Maybe, and this is pure speculation, being left out of the England squad affected him. Maybe it was his house being robbed. Maybe the new nipper. Maybe all three.
Everyone has ups and downs in life and as an elite sportsman you'd expect him to have the mental fortitude to overcome the downs. It's not like he's short of help or the money to pay for the best help

I don't know what age you are but it reminds me a little bit of Stan Collymore
He'd reached a level, was earning a couple of million quid a year. Was shagging Ulrika Jonnson and then one day his head went because life was too easy

If 1 was true, he would be nowhere near the squad. Its that simple.

As for everything else, not worth going into.
 
Jack does not have a drink problem, what he does have is a mouth that he has used to challenge Peps decisions hence the recent cold shoulder. He either reins it in or becomes the next Cancelo only he can decide which.

What did he say about or to Pep?
 
I heard a couple of weeks back he has a drink problem, and if true City have a legal responsibility and duty of care to help him, hence why he's in the squad.
They have a legal responsibility to have him on the bench of a premier league game?

Their responsiblity would be shielding him from outside of the club and he would be doing his work at the academy and if its worse, checking into rehab.
