Grealish reminds me most of Rodney Marsh, except he's a bit quicker. As for him being surplus to requirements on the left, I think he's one of those players who could play anywhere along the front 6. He's bright and intelligent, and young enough to be moulded by Pep in the next 2 seasons. Mahrez looked a bit surplus to requirements when we got him but he's had some superb spells over the last 12 months, and was undroppable towards the end of last season. No reason why Grealish won't become just as valuable to the squad, if not even more so.Some very good points Marvin.
Already we see the title is between 3 teams Us , Liverpool and Chelsea but I also don't think the rags will be far off and may well take points against all the top sides.
Good point about Grealish, at this time he does slow us down, reminds me very much of Mahrez when he first arrived. Pep will get hold of him and I am sure we will see a very good player, a 100m player? not sure myself.
I suspect that United will be our closest rivals, not Chelsea. What I've seen of Chelsea, I suspect that Lukaku will make them a bit too 1 dimensional. Will Ronaldo help to bridge the 12 point gap between us?
Hope not. I think we'll be better than last season, especially when KDB and Foden come back in. It certainly looks like no one else is coming in. Anyway, if Torres can build on his confident start - and Jesus - who knows what's possible.
Fingers crossed.
