I can understand people wanting more from a player. What I can’t get onboard with is when the player under attack has played his part in the club winning another trophy. If the club was underachieving and the players strolled about then fair enough have a go. Let’s leave that to united fans.Some of these fans were probably the same ones who slagged Rodders off after his first year.
I also wish people would get off Jack's back & stop obsessing over his hair, calf muscles & transfer fee!£100m fee is why people can’t appreciate his performances. If it was £50m then the lack of support would not exist. I have no doubts he will start to deliver higher performances but he still might never be able to do enough to justify the fee in some people eyes.
To be fair, it will be harder than he thought as if his brain was in a hazelnut, it’d still rattle.I also wish people would get off Jack's back & stop obsessing over his hair & calf muscles & transfer fee!
Pep wanted him & Villa had a rock solid buyout clause in his contract which we triggered, which is nothing to do with Grealish. ManUre are entitled to put a £1bn buyout clause on Phil Jones's head, but he's only worth what someone's willing to pay.
The only reservations I've got about Grealish is a comment he made post-Villa match where we won the title. Pissed up, he said it's harder than he thought to adapt under Guardiola because he's had to stick to a rigid system, whereby at Villa he could just perform to instinct & make things happen.
This could be just a 1-2 season settling in period, or it could be a player being unhappy about not being able to play his natural game. My hope is we'll land somewhere in the middle where Jack'll adapt his natural game to fit Guadiola's philosophy.
only worth 100 million when sold for same in few years time like Sterling wasnt worth 50 million but strangely enough 7 yeas later load of silver wear we got our money back and nobody bats a eyelid£100m fee is why people can’t appreciate his performances.

Surname OverpricedI didn’t realise Cucurella’s first name was Jack.
The role of a passenger, didn't have one game winning moment all season, take his measly g/a contribution away and we still would have finished with the same points.I can understand people wanting more from a player.
