Think he said he had a slight twinge from an old injury. Don’t think there is much doubt if that game was for the title both Grealish and Doku would have started.Does anyone know why despite Pep saying Grealish had a great game V Forest in the middle, he’s then dropped?
He wasn’t injured so I assume it’s tactical, one of those things Pep sees but 7 billion other people on the planet can’t?
To me, (a shit part time arm chair fan) like with Stones in mid 2 years ago, when you unlock something like Grealish in the middle, you go with it. You can get 15-20 games of advantage because it’s new,the opposition scouting and analysis networks haven’t been able to analyse it before to counter it effectively. We then pick up wins, build confidence and start playing better than we actually are, teams get cagey and scare of us again which builds more confidence and opens up more opportunities for innovation because everyone is motivated and forward thinking. At the moment we’re playing a mental game as well as a tired one.
I think everyone would have liked to see him play again, but from the outside we don't know what kind of condition he (or anyone) is in. Maybe he wasn't capable of starting the game without risking injury.Does anyone know why despite Pep saying Grealish had a great game V Forest in the middle, he’s then dropped?

Not sure that is the case. More games in the middle and he’ll only get better. Him and Doku could course teams a lot of problems. He’s got everything to become a very good 8. Not putting him on his level obviously but it’s easy to forget Silva never played there until he was about 29.Shows how desperate times have become when people are begging for Grealish in the middle. A guy that has contributed nothing in this calendar year!
He had a good game against forest but he is not the answer in the middle of the park. When everyone is fit and on form actually hes miles away from the starting 11
Fuck off with this ego crap , go back to supporting england , your sole reason for being here is to slag pep, sadAll right let's rephrase
Is it true Grealish felt discomfort?
Or Pep's ego felt discomfort?
Fuck off , bingo fan i am guessing or a glory hunter who cant take the rough with the smoothAlways right?
Yep as right as with Eric Garcia Cole Palmer 2021 CL final and all the game management for the past one month.
And also the sushi dinner with Kyle Walker.
should be OK for the next England game though so be happyAll right let's rephrase

Just because someone is fit to start one game after an injury, doesn’t mean he’s fit enough to start in the immediate game after just three days later.
If he’d started him and he went off injured at half time, everyone would be moaning about Pep being stupid starting him two games in a row so soon after a injury.
Yeah well here's the thing, why did Pep give him and Doku 90 minutes against Forest if that means they can only play 10 minutes the next game ? why not give them 60 minutes and then 30 against Palace considering we were already 3 up by the hour mark against Forest ?It’s bloody obvious really isn’t it?
