The comparison is a good one,although i expect Grealish will not restrict himself and will fully realise his potential.He's nowhere near as good and it's not even close.
There are few better currently.Seems grealish has been elevated to superstar status after a couple of decent games.
He's a cheating, diving, snidey player who seems to spend most of his energy on throwing himself to the ground. cut all that out and he might be half decent.
I am not part of any top clubs coaching set up though.This is like a caricature of the the troglodyte football fan who thinks analytics is for FIFA players and not a massive part of every top club side's coaching set up.
I didn't think people like this actually still existed in 2020.
Le Tissier did realise his potential though, he was top class. He scored 161 top flight goals, which is more than Lampard, Scholes, Gerrard and Giggs. All this while playing for one of the lesser teams. He did not just score tap ins, he scored wonder goals against the best teams in the country.The comparison is a good one,although i expect Grealish will not restrict himself and will fully realise his potential.
You have just used that very argument to belittle Grealish?Le Tissier did realise his potential though, he was top class.

Don't let Le Tissiers loyalty and lack of medals kid you. He was truly gifted and a natural talent.

Le Tiss didn't win his first cap till he was 25 either,and that wasn't with a manager who was a clueless wanker.
I bow to superior knowledge,but i don't remember Le Tiss being any better at a similar age.
Haha.Le Tissier was a scorer of wonderful goals & was hugely talented, he was also lazy and had zero work ethic.
Hence the limited England caps.
ffs Le Tiss would have been his nickname at City
He scored over 200 career goals in a mid table team and he was not even a striker. So what of he looked a little lethargic? Bluemoon32 is being disingenuous by saying Le Tissier was lazy and had zero work ethic. You do not score that many goals as an attacking midfielder/wide player if you have zero work ethic and are lazy. He scored more than Lampard and Lampard played for the best team in the country at the time. Le Tissier did it for Southampton. He looked lazy in the same way Yaya did and like Yaya he was usually the best player on the pitch.Haha.
NW has very selective memory.
