Think they see Grealish as an 8 more than as a forward three players although I could be wrong.

I've heard that outside his technique what Pep likes is that he's a gnarly, dirty, bastard who can put a foot in. Hence seeing him as a potential central player.

Jesus will continue to be back up 9 IMO.

Agreed on the 8. We have more wide players than you can shake a stick at. Makes zero sense bringing him in for that role unless two or more are leaving which would also make zero sense..
 
Berlin? Huh?
Ah I get it. Top gun, mother goose, ice man, Messi is cool in hot situations, turning every turn, little Lionel turning defences inside out for us!

I'm going to get my Messi tattoo, it's on like donkey Kong.
Aren’t they lyrics from Barcelona by Freddie and Montserat?
 
I know it's a long-term shift, but taking away Gundy's ace by pushing him back which seems the likely outcome would be slightly disappointing. I just see Grealish getting in Raz's way, which isn't a bad thing, but makes you wonder whether we really need Raz anymore...I imagine Torres will move to back up striker as he's been used this season.
As well as Gundogan, both Ake and Zinchenko have played holding midfielder, albeit not for us. By next season Lavia will have had more time to develop and I could see him playing in the cups. So we may be able to cope with just Rodri as our defensive midfielder.
