Jack Grealish

He is a brilliant diver but a totally shit driver.

I disagree with most of the reasoning against Grealish working for City. I think he's very talented, I think he works hard, I believe that in a football capacity he has a good attitude and work ethic, I think he has the capacity to improve under a top coach etc, I think he's happy to work for the team etc etc. Given his interviews I think he'd love to play for City too. He'd really excel.


However, I still wouldn't want to sign him because we simply don't need a player of his position/role. With De Bruyne/Gundogan/Foden/Bernardo (not to mention a possible incoming Messi) it leaves us far too overcrowded in that area if he signs. A Grealish type player is as necessary as us signing another CB ie it's not.

Maybe things could change in the next couple of years and we'll need a guy like Grealish in which case I'd welcome him with open arms, but right now, no we shouldn't sign him in my opinion.

Spot on. He is a good player and would probably get better in a team like ours.

However, the last thing we need at the moment is another midfield player, even if Pep would like to play with ten of them.

A replacement for Sergio has to be top priority.

There should be no argument regarding his ability and work rate.

With Bernardo returning to form and Foden’s rapid rise to one of the league’s best creative players, I question if he’s truly needed though.

I’d prefer to see us focus on a left back, a combative midfielder and a striker (or two).

This is a priority for me more so than a striker. Gundy won’t play like this next season & we will loose fern. We will be short in midfield. Jesus & Torres can fight it out for no 1 striker although I would like a top goal scorer ASAP. midfield will be an issue (unless messi joins us)

ideally grealish, messi & a striker will do nicely

Would you mind sharing some future lottery numbers?

Poor Gundogan he gets slagged off for years (not/never by me) then he is in the form of his life scoring for fun . Then “he won’t play like this next year “
Re Grealish I quite like him but for me a striker is a must. But Pep will decide

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

Would be brilliant in our side

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

Whoever signs him, if anyone, will be getting his prime years.

I'd love them to be at city if we can offload Mahrez.

Wow grealish foden bernardo kdb gundog some skill there.

 

[Ban-jani]

I’d rather spend our entire budget on a 30 goal a year striker.
