I think double figures playing in this team is very achievable for Jack. He just needs to be a bit calmer in front of goal eg goal he scored against Southampton

I think that may well be a very big part of it bud, think it was yourself ? who said earlier that he’s a clean striker of the ball and he is, so in my mind it can only really be just lacking that bit of composure when the chance comes along or just caught in two minds.It's just about composure, I think. He snatches at chances similar to how Erling does with headers. It's a weakness that shouldn't really be there but it's exciting to think that it might just click soon. A Grealish who bags goals and a Haaland who dominates in the air is a scary thought.

He may be at an even better team for thatIt will be interesting to see how Mitoma gets on this season, after an amazing debut season. Opposition will be studying him far more and Mitoma will likely have to adapt at times. This season will tell us a lot about how good this lad is going to be.
Disagree about the composure, he telegraphs when he is going to shoot so much, makes defending against him easy.It's just about composure, I think.

He needs to be more instinctive when going for goal, he is a naturally a great striker of the ball but again when taking a shot seems to want to pass the ball , would love to see him just hit the ball hard.

I personally don’t get all the hype about Mitoma. A year ago I’d never heard of him, I thought he was very good for part of last season and then faded a bit, I would be concerned he might be something of a 6 month wonder and not at the required level

I don't agree Jack is usually the most fouled player for a reason he's a lot quicker than you think and much stronger than Mitoma, like you say his decision making is better, yes his finishing should improve.Not really, Jack's strength lies in his decision making. Mitoma is a better dribbler, a better finisher and is quicker.
The problem for me is that the left hand side isn't an issue for us. We need someone on the right.
I'm sure like for like Jack is the better player, but life is all about opinions.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying Mitoma is better. I think he's just better at certain things.

When the season was in its early stages Mitoma looked sensational. However, by the end of it he looked quite ordinary, almost as if he had been found out. In my eyes, the jury is still out, especially when you consider the fee likely to be asked by Brighton
Anybody that thinks Mitoma is better than Grealish is mental and knows very little about the beautiful game, respectfully.
Super Jack. One of the first 3 names on the team sheet for the greatest PL team of all time. Haaland, Rodri, & Grealish. He is so so effective at what he does. Nobody like him in world football. Anybody who thinks otherwise should maybe take a lesson from our very own manager (the best manager of all-time) who is in love with Jack and how he plays the game. I don't want to assume anything but very good chance you know less than Pep.
Mitoma is a good player. I'd take em at city. Maybe one day this can be a conversation. But, as of now he's only one (1) year younger than Jack and has achieved far far less. He is much less proven. Outside of the first half of last PL season he wasn't even the best winger on Brighton. March was more effective. Is Solly March better than Grealish too? Enciso made a couple appearances and instantly looked like the best player on the pitch for Brighton. it's nonsense. Give your heads a shake.
