Not good, the dive. It hasn't been a habit for as long as you'd think if you just listened to fans of teams he tore apart in the Championship, but it's in danger of becoming one. But the kick is snide as ****.

Yep.

Why do we have so many fans of others teams on this forum?! Why would you bother?

We're in lockdown so there are fewer opportunities for flashing or whatever their usual form of weirdo deviant behaviour might be.

The VAR ref asks him to watch the video and he sees that there wasn't much contact as it looked and he reverses his decision. OK.

Not sure what the rules regarding VAR is this week but it wasn't a clear or blatant error to blow for a penalty as there was contact, and the "he got the ball a bit" is not how the rules are I'm pretty sure.

Better yet, he actually made the old 'ball' gesture after he was shown the single angle the VAR wanted him to be shown, suggesting strongly that the amount of contact on Trez's shin was not in fact the reason he overturned his decision, which of course we must assume two officials have deemed a clear and obvious error.

Simple fact is this: we'll see that same decision not overturned before the end of the weekend.

If he keeps improving at this rate he'll be almost good enough to play for them one day.

Whilst the 2nd track is a little better, yeah not great... 

I got told off for calling them Scars On Broadway b-sides. They're not good. The second one is better but they are not good.

Jack Grealish isn't human. He can't be.

It’s not really a Leeds thing.

Yes but Leeds are the best at it. It hasn't been the same without them. We're lucky to have them back where they belong.

Great 4-1 defeat. Best 4-1 defeat ever. Special. Nobody ever had a better 4-1 defeat.

Wait, what?

A word much stronger and more removed.

Thanks brother
 

Btw was on Back Page Football tonight. A great podcast based in Ireland and got a good following. 
 

 

Bloody hell, as if they're still going.

Liverpool was silly. This was proper. What a start.

Zero chance he starts tonight. Tiny chance he gets off the bench. If it's not Rashford and Sancho, Southgate will start Mount because he thinks he'll link two defensive midfielders to the attack in a system that's really bloody difficult to pull off if you want to, you know, score a goal. Mount can do that. He's not in Grealish's league at it, but he can do it.

Interesting that there seems to be support for Jack even within the squad, with Mount coming out and saying that he and Grealish could play together and some supportive noise from Phillips today too.

I get the feeling that the England camp isn't necessarily the happiest of places.

There will be players in that squad who are suddenly scoring twenty goals a day in training and they'll know exactly why. I think the opinion of Harry Kane might be the most important factor in Jack's international career. Which striker doesn't want him loading the gun?

Arseholes. 

I mean, it’s to be expected I guess but still, robbing arseholes.

And I’ll bet unlike the carabao cup games the clubs see very little of ten revenue.

Every game has been broadcast on the normal channels to date, it’s just opportunistic bullshit.

Supposedly it's all going to the clubs.

Just now, MrBlack said:

Finally gets called up, and started, and it's for a meaningless friendly 3 days before a competitive game.  Surely just confirms that Southgate has no intention of starting him against Belgium, especially given the other names being proposed to start this match.

Kinda hope he only plays 60 minutes.

Wouldn't be part of The Jack Grealish Story if he didn't have to go round the houses, would it? For whatever reason he's expected to prove it before he gets his place. Those opportunities don't come along often with Southgate. Grealish can count himself lucky there's a really stupid third game in this international week. Grab it with both hands, Jack.

Fantastic day for the kid. Well deserved and long overdue.

Buckle up, England. You ain't ready.

I think he'll play.

Congratulations to Bielsa and Leeds for making Villa brilliant by losing a match. I hope it makes the media finally sit up and pay attention.

**** weapons.

Also: Souness, a man who signed Ali Deia, should not be laid to asses the talents of Jack Grealish.

They probably just reward him with money to be fair.

We need to win something with Grealish because if we don't it'll be hard to pick the pose for his statue.
