JPB is just a young kid trying to make it as a footballer. I'm sure he'd join City in a heartbeat, the same way we'd release him if he wasn't very good. It's just business. in which case its perfectly fine for me to say he doesn't look like he'll ever be good enough. Calm down this not entirely serious. I'm not writing him off after one game. That match highlights clip doesn't do him any favours though makes him look very ordinary. Think he's better than that.

Jareth Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I understand that it's a business as well as a sport, but when the next generation applaud the ditching of your club in preference of self betterment, then it really is all entirely fooked. Someone just flagged a page 6 post on the Grealish thread by his brother about what he'd do if Citeh came in with big money - this is similar. How depressing.

Jono62 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Looks like Smith really rates him. Has started a few games this pre-season and is in ahead of Traore, unless BT is still lacking fitness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Bailey yet to train with us, Buendia, Bertrand and Trezeguet all out I think JPB has some good chances ahead of him the next 5 or 6 weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

messi11 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 He use to play left winger for the U23's. How come he now plays Right for the first team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nepal_villan Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Love how he crashes the goal. If he plays, he will bag a couple of goals simply from his movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa Stu Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 I’m actually more excited about JPB than Chuk. I think both will be great players but JPB looks ready now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villatillidie95 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Said before today's game against Salernitana that he should be thrown in against Watford at some point, and I stand by that today. Was in a great position to receive the Mcginn key pass and did well to get it into the mixer. Really do think he is the type that can make an impact in games. Looks like a strong guy aswell who can hold his own on that side of the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Definitely got some potential, drifts out of games a bit which happens when you’re playing on the wing sometimes. Seems a genuine option for this season though, fingers crossed he can take his chances and perform well when they come along. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Main attribute (based on what little I've seen) seems to be his energy and strength. The latter sometimes lacking in very young players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 He will get minutes this season. Excited to see what he can do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
