10 | Jack Grealish - 2024/25

[M Gaudino]

Right now if Jack can come in on Sunday, play 75+ minutes and keep the ball, not lose it in daft places and track back like he has done to support Gvardiol or Ake (and given Akes performances historically against Salah I’d prefer the latter) then I will take that.

Wow, the absolute state of this thread.

A scapegoat has truly been identified who this season didn't play in the CL defeat, didn't play in the PL defeats vs Bournemouth or Brighton, only came on at 3-0 down in the PL defeat vs Spurs and didn't play in the League Cup defeat.

Grealish did play 20 league games (and 36 games in total) in the historic league campaign to seal 4 in a row, 28 league games, 13 CL and 5 FA cup games in the treble campaign and 26 PL games in his 1st season when the PL title was won and yet people are claiming he's only played well for 3 months in total!!!

It's a team game and it looks to me like Jack's ability to retain possession high up the pitch has a significant bearing on whether City wins or loses.

The issue for me is that Grealish so clearly has abundant talent and a great opportunity but he consistently fails to perform at a level many think he's capable of .In some ways he reminds me a bit of McManaman when he was here .

What, you want to be left to whine and moan about a player in peace. Sorry if I think people are chatting shite I'll be here to tell them. Obviously Pep knows better, to think otherwise shows the lack of self awareness I alluded to.

So, “Pep knows best so the rest of you can fcuk off with your shite views”.

And that’s self awareness?

Right.

There's only the little difference of 3 Premier Leagues, 1 Champions League, 1 FA Cup, 1 UEFA Super Cup and 1 FIFA Club World Cup with McMinimum.

Look at who’s been posting on this thread since Tuesday’s draw.

Tells you all you need to know. Same old sad haters who can’t get their heads around why Pep keeps playing him.

Right.

I never said you can't post what you like, I never asked you to fuck off from the thread. Yet yourself not liking anyone disagreeing,or putting a counter argument wanted me to leave the thread. So there's that to ponder.Right?

Give him a free roll and he will be a £100 million pound player but pigs will fly stay on the left and hold the ball up Jackie boy wasted talent

Crikey, it looks as if if Jack plays on Sunday scored 3 or 4 goals had 2 assists and was voted MOTM by the pundits he’d still be the scapegoat and vilified by some.

Go for it Jack give us a great game sunshine. :-)
