Ezzy's first correct prediction? lol

1 year on.. lol

Disagree. I want all the colors of the soccer rainbow in the forum. ;-)

This kind of violation should be against the code of conduct.

As should the use of "centre-half" instead of CB. An obsolete position used in obsolete formations.



As should Jamie Redknappisms like "top, top, top top.... Players"

keep reading grealish shouts...but who is he coming in for ?

of course kane for kun but our mid is stacked...need a ferna replacement ready

Since no one else has replied to you ... Grealish wouldn't be coming in as a replacement, more as cover for KDB, Gundogan, and, to a lesser degree, Bernardo. For the number of games we play, Pep must see the need for one more player to fill that inside forward role.

Can’t see it myself. Pep has commented many times about the difficulty in keeping the squad happy this season in terms of game time and that’s with no Aguero. If Kane is coming, and I think he is, he’ll struggle to keep all our attacking players happy as it is without adding another one in there. I rate Grealish, but for this reason, I’m out.

Disagree i think grealish will join
Bookies now odds on so maybe this is close.i think we will see a few players leave going to be a interesting few weeks.

not a chance we sign Grealish as cover. Out of the players you’ve mentioned I can see him play instead of Bernardo

If we did sign him, he’d initially be one of the wide forwards. He’s not played as an 8 for a while as Dean Smith didn’t think he did enough defensively there.

Pep could teach him the necessary skills, but it would take time, just like with Foden.

I don't think Kane coming in has any impact on Grealish getting minutes or not. They won't be competing with each other for time on the pitch. As I said, Grealish will be competing with Gundo, Kev and Bernie, so not as a forward line player.

As we saw for a large chunk of last season and briefly this, when Kev is out injured we lack creativity and struggle to create chances. While we've used other players like Gundo and Bernie to fill that role, they've not really been up to Kev's creaative level (through no fault of theirs ofc). Grealish in for Kev or Gundo gives us that creative passing and dribbling we need.

He could be one of the players to leave as much as i love bernardo.Sometimes managers have to make difficult calls one of bernardo or raz will leave i think.

Bernardo hasn’t alway been first choice and before this season I could have seen him leaving.

can’t see Sterling leaving personally. I think someone in attack has to leave
