Don’t think he’s good enough personally, just my opinion...

Maybe I’m shortsighted but is he going to get in ahead of what we have? No

Is he a long term replacement for KDB? I fucking hope not, that’s like going from a Ferrari to fiat

Not for me

Grealish has everything - so does KDB but obviously levels above right now.

To be fair, it’ll be hard to replicate what KDB does no matter who we bring in to replace him but getting the player who idolises him - who already possesses shit loads of quality - to ‘teach’ wouldn’t be a bad thing IMO.
 
The difference between Foden and Grealish right now is Pep would trust Grealish in the midfield over Foden. He's said it before, that playing on the wings and playing in the middle require different tempos, and only Bernardo is capable of doing that in our team as of now.

Grealish would give us both options. Especially when to slow the game down at right moment, which was one of El Mago's many specialities in our midfield. Not saying we'll get him, but I hope we do. He would make a great addition to our team.
 
Not sure anybody can claim he's going to be the best player in the league when said league has Phil Foden strutting his stuff.
Seems to be some wildly over exaggerating of how good he is as well as a few downplaying his ability.
As always, the truth is somewhere in the middle. I like him, would be happy to see him at the club because he's got the raw attributes that a successful signing for us requires.
