Jack Grealish

[urban genie]

It's sad that so many of you seem to have forgotten what it's like to have a proper connection with one of your players.

We have had players choose to leave us

They return as ex blues and are cheered with only 3 exceptions I can recall barton which is more pantomine villian than dislike, distin, still not sure why and Milner because he's a dick

You lot boo anyone who leaves you and call them snakes.

You wouldn't know connection if you tried.

not saying you are incorrect but I cant recall that if im honest.

I know you don't remember it but I sat right at the front and his touch and control were incredible. He didn't have an effect on the game but I remember thinking he's a player. They struggled to stay up that season.

I'd bet good money that Gundogan isn't going to score 11 goals in 12 league games at the crucial point of the season again, for starters. In any normal team the responsibility of scoring goals falls with the forwards, not a guy who spent half the previous season at DM.

I bet good money Sterling has now found his form and Torres will slot in after finding his feet last season.
Phil will continue to improve and Jesus will score a bagfull now Sergio has gone.
Mahrez will have his best ever season and Kev will score 20 goals

Still not keen on this signing.

It's not that I don't like him. I think he's a great player. I just like Sterling, Foden and Mahrez more. I feel connected to Sterling after celebrating almost 150 of his goals, feel connected to Foden because he's our best local prospect ever and feel connected to Mahrez after he's scored so many great goals at crucial times. I'm sure I'd eventually grow to love Grealish but at the moment I'd much rather those three stay as our first three choices for the two wing spots.

I'll be much more keen on Grealish in a very specific circumstance:

a) Bernardo is in fact leaving and
b) Pep wants to play either Grealish or Foden in midfield permanently moving forward

but I don't think Bernardo will leave and I think hell will freeze over before Pep plays either Grealish or Foden as an 8.

He didn't have an effect on the game

That's the original commenter's entire point I believe

Jesus will score a bagfull now Sergio

Sergio has been out for long time with injuries and still Jesus couldn't cement his place as a striker

Spot on. It's not a real connection if you turn on them the minute they dare want to play for anyone else, it's just arrogance.

I need to start keeping a record of every time someone makes a claim like this. Usually it proves to be bollocks but I've always forgotten who said what by then.

I get what you're saying but that guy on Reddit is the closest thing to a legitimate ITK that we've got. Pretty much a flawless track record.

Sterling probably has found his form but that's little use to us when he's watching Grealish and Mahrez from the bench. Same goes for Torres and Foden (but don't worry, I'm sure he'll score loads in the cup against Burton Albion before being inexplicably returned to the bench for every league game as he was in the back half of last season).

Sergio was for all intents and purposes 'gone' since March 2020 and that period was probably the shittiest form of Jesus' career so far.

Mahrez may well have his best ever season but that would still be some way short of the goals and assists a striker like Kane would provide.

De Bruyne hasn't come close to 20 goals in 9 of his 12 seasons. No reason to think he'd manage it this time especially when missing a couple of months with an injury is now sadly a yearly thing for him.

An ITK on man city's reddit saying Grealish is signing this week apparently has a 100% success rate with man city stuff.

Do you ever put links to your claims?
