I thought he was really good in the final third yesterday, but you cant excuse the defending on 2 of the goals. I can excuse mistakes to a certain point, but i think his mistakes was lack of desire and the reason he was dragged off imo.
-
Its not about individuals though its making the team better at scoring and creating goals. Look at United with Ronaldo everyone waas focused with feeding Ronaldo everyone else stopped scoring. Its almost echoing at city to a ceartain degree where Arsenal have a forward like that share the workload and goals. Its why Ings was ultimatly shipped out, his team play wasnt what Emery wanted. 3 players with 10 goals is better than one with 15 and a couple with 5.

If Rashford would have stayed still than fair enough but he ran with the ball without touhing that...why would he do that if he didn't think it would effect the play. Utter nonsence reading of the law and guidence.

First game 89 McGrath Cowans Platt Yorke 5th is tough between Barry, Jack and Ashley Young
-
Other than Ings MOTM for me...but i guess you see what you want to sometimes.
-
Mine hasn’t decreased at all. Can’t stand the man.
-
It’s a lot easier to say as a player the manager convinced me and I want ti play for him rather than £150k a week was way more than anyone else offered me.
-
I missed that. It’s always better to challenge people this way rather than to say they’re shit and throwing them under the bus.
-
Nice little cameo today, a few nice passes and got stuck in. Lets rememeber Coutiniho was also playing in a Gerrardball team and given the the ball in the right areas could bring out the best in him.
-
Again showed today why i think someone to play alongside Ollie will be more likely rather than a replacment.

The RJW63 Official Jack Grealish Appreciation Thread

Scoring 14 in 2 previous seasons i dont think double figues playing for the best team in the country isnt unrealistic, but you're right creation is his forte and 5 assists isn't excatly pulling up trees either. -
Weve brought in one quality player a season. We probably need to speed this up while Keeping Martinez and Kamara (im not ready to judge Carlos yet) We will need to upgrade wide areas, Centre back and someone to play WITH Ollie before Ollie upgraded. As i said thats maybe 18 months to 2.5 years away and i think Emery likes him and his type of player, which is good enogh for me.

And why he has 4 premier league goals in a season and a half at city. -
Well Jesus is always the worst finisher in the Premier League year on year. I was taking the piss with Haarland.
-
You would bin Jesus at Arseanl too would't you? Ollie has been "sufficient" in the past played his way into the England squad. His finsihing isn't the best part of his game i agree but theres also what he does when running the line. Is he a top 6 striker... no he isnt, but then this isnt a top 6 squad and Ollie is way down the line of replacment imo. As i said before its who we get to play with him first.
-
In the 4-4-2/4-2-2-2 it would be to play with Ollie first anyway.

Well its the same really. The lack of confidence or ability in his finsihing means it was the right thing to do but also shows his short comings. He has 4 premier league goals for City and most of them wins of over 5 goals. -
No my point is very few score more than 3 in 5. Watkins' xg vs Liverpool was 0.68, your in cloud cuckoo land if you think many strikers are bagging a lot more.

Oaks replied to kevangrealish's topic in Other Football
Its easy to say its the right thing because it ended up as a goal. He has no confidence in his shooting. 2 assists and 1 goal this season (less than Dougie) is excactly why he's struggling at city to say it isnt is just silly really. Foden, Silva and Mahrez all shoot and probably score there and its why Jack plays against Leeds rather than Madrid or Liverpool. -
Who the hell do you want bloody Haaland ffs?
-
Dosent worry me we would get big £££ for him and his position is easier to replace than Grealish is that Smith team.
-
Totally.

Nearly every pro shoots there. He bottled it and Haaland wasn't expecting it nearlt got it caught under his feet. His finsihing is why he wont ever make it at city. -
He's always under performed his xg slightly, (not to Jesus levels) but under Gerrard we created so few chances he would snatch a lot more imo. If he knows he will keep getting chances i think he will relax and will start netting more often.
-
To be perfectly honest its both.
