He's quite unique though, he almost completely relies simply on body feints which if you think about how damn good he is at getting by players is very impressive. I was watching some videos of Carlos Valderrama the big bouffant Columbian legend from the 90s other day and I thought his style of play reminded me a lot of Grealish. The languid playing style, the ability to drift past players, the appearance of having all the time in the world despite being in the most crowded areas of the pitch, incredible passing range and a few times when he gets crowded into a corner by opponents and pulls out an outrageous piece of skill to keep possession. Apparently Laurent Blanc said this about him. "He was a natural exponent of 'toque', keeping the ball moving. But he was so gifted that we could give him the ball when we didn't know what else to do with it knowing he wouldn’t lose it... and often he would do things that most of us only dream about." If that doesn't perfectly describe the Grealish role at Villa I'm not sure what else does. There are loads of videos on youtube so have a watch and see what you think.

David Silva and Modric are two he always reminds me of in possession. Madness. Wijnaldum a lot recently as well with his play around opposition areas, pops up in all sorts of dangerous spots. He's not the same as any of them though, he's got his own slightly deep yet attacking roving role that draws everyone in toward him. Always feels a bit silly to say those names, but that's the level he can achieve for me. Be so pleased for him, and Villa overall, if he can dominate for us next year. Still this.

weedman Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 He reminds me of a slower Eden Hazard...if he had an extra yard of pace he'd be phenomenal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazrim Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Jack is fairly quick when he needs to be and comparatively lightning with the ball at his feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know what the world’s coming to, football boots should be black and with plenty of dubbing on them. How’s he going to kick a ball out of a muddy puddle on a wet Wednesday night in January in those pretty boy things? Kids today..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s not forget Lampard has taken over at Chelsea. The media will praise him for giving the youngsters a chance (they won’t mention the transfer ban). One of those who may only play 10 games will still win Young player of year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
