Bellingham is alright, decent for his age, but I’d rather sign de Jong from Barça if we were in need of a midfielder as he’s far more suited to our style of play, or move Foden into midfield.
Opinions and I am not making this into a Grealish rant.
The fact remains in the history of football, huge record transfer deals often fail, and usually down to crazy expectation that the player simply can't live up to.
Every top club has examples.Only at the rags.
Edited for accuracyDon't take any of Bellinghams performances for England at face value southgate would make mbappe look poor in an England shirt.
genuinely......really?!!?!?!?Stop. Grealish is world class
We are a great team...he has been mediocre.Lots of mediocre you say, funny how we usually win when he plays, we must be a great team that can win while carrying a passenger.
Pep even rates Tim ReamDo we know Pep rates him? He blew smoke up Nathan Redmond’s backside and we never bought him!
More than you can believe.Pep even rates Tim Ream
Its an opinion, in my opinion a wrong one, neither opinion matters in the slightest.Only one opinion matters and thats the opinion of a man that thinks only of the team performance and doesn’t pick passengers in his teams.We are a great team...he has been mediocre.
I dont go by stats usually but his are pretty poor creatively and offensively. He retains possession well but that is about it...He doesnt drive the team forward, nor is he much of an attacking threat.....I can see wha the brings but he is not essential to the way we play and could easily be replaced by other players either in our team or in others.
He certainly does nothing to justify the price tag (which is not his fault or within his control) but that brings me to the main point of what some are saying here.....that English players are vastly overpriced and overrated. Will Bellingham be another...Personally not seen enough of him to know....
