Apologies if it's already posted but I can't see it anywhere. This is what Pep was alluding to in his statement about players not being selected for the Newcastle game. A few days before our next game and after a 7-0 win it seems harmless enough (Covid aside) but Pep mustn't have been amused. Both have bits of previous, let's hope they don't throw promising careers away

 
I think there's 2 things they need to be mindful of:
1) Teams are picking up covid, left, right and centre, going to a nightclub isn't the best idea at the moment. Potentially putting us in a tricky situation with squad selection.
2) If you go out, you can't rock up to training the next day in poor condition. Outside of covid times, this is unacceptable anyway.

Hopefully they've both apologised to Pep and we can move on.

Save the nights out for celebrating titles.

Professional footballers living up (down?) to the stereotypes the media (and a lot of fans) have of them. Seriously lacking in intelligence and, to use an Irish expression, cop-on.
 
Jack having a negative influence?
Grealish has previous for this sort of thing at Villa doesn't he. He was also apparently partying with Benjamin Mendy on the night of one of his Covid-beating parties (Grealish was then a Villa player) which was one of the occasions where the rape allegations surfaced. No suggestion that Grealish did anything wrong but common sense would suggest Mendy was a person to avoid.
 
Not their finest decision

Both have bits of previous and it isn't long before you start looking unprofessional and a problem. Jack hasn't exactly been ripping up any trees since he got here and Pep.has been pretty ruthless in the past with getting rid of problems and ego's, no matter how big the name. Time will tell as always, let's hope they wise up.
