Grealish looking the real deal so far this year.
he always wants the ball and his ball retention are first class . Would fit in well in our midfield
He's always been the real deal. People on here just don't like Jack Grealish the person and formed their opinion on him as a player as a result.
I've maintained since the summer before we signed Torres (who I do think was a good addition, so not complaining) that he would have been an excellent buy in the window simply due to his versatility. Very good either as a left winger or in CM, both gaping holes in our squad with Sane and Silva leaving at the same time and he would have plugged both gaps.
He's Zaha'd himself by signing a new contract with Villa now (not that I think he would care too much if Villa can carry on in an upward trajectory), so I think we can wave goodbye to the prospect of him ever coming here as we're not going to be paying the £80m+ that Villa can demand for him.
