There were really no long-term consequences for that. We lost money, sure, but on the pitch we just kinda ditched him and moved on. Shoehorning Grealish into the team will hinder us for years.

If Pep thought he was not the answer he would be gone, regardless of transfer cost, remember Eto and Ibra, both moved out at huge cost to Barca.Man, signing Grealish was comfortably the worst decision we've made since the takeover. I have no clue what our (usually excellent) board were thinking. You're right, this would be great, but it would mean Pep admitting that Jack isn't good enough, which we would never allow.

Most Argies are "good guy" types, the "cunts" are only a few that build the perception for the entire team in the eyes of neutrals. Even then, you would love those "shithousery" few if they played for you, haha.Like Aguero and Zaba then? Is it just a coincidence or do we actually make an effort to sign the good guy types?

Also a bit of a very dated perception that England players are good guys who would never dive or practice the dark arts which is, as we all know, jingoistic bollocks.Most Argies are "good guy" types, the "cunts" are only a few that build the perception for the entire team in the eyes of neutrals.

Fuck, I've been slacking off so.Don't think I've seen any post slagging off Grealish.
He hasn't been on a losing City side this season, so how is shoehorning him into the team hindering us?There were really no long-term consequences for that. We lost money, sure, but on the pitch we just kinda ditched him and moved on. Shoehorning Grealish into the team will hinder us for years.
I get you don't like him and think he was a waste of money but at least try not to just make shite up.

What do we call him - Jay, Jewel, Jools or Julian?
It‘s the festive season, so it’s got to be…. Yule.

It would depend on him really. With most players I would agree, to play for as long as he has without a break with those energy levels is outstanding.
Perhaps a weekend in Blackpool will do the trick.
He will at most likely be starting one match a week so that will help.
Nah, we should really push the boat out.
Rhyl it is.

I can see that happening with Grealish. Not the same way as the big nosed wanker but I can see him moving at the end of the season. Newcastle would be an excellent move for him.If Pep thought he was not the answer he would be gone, regardless of transfer cost, remember Eto and Ibra, both moved out at huge cost to Barca.
