R.Bear Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Southgate is an absolute buffoon. He's made the right decision (although had Mount been available, you wonder if Jack would be starting) but he's going to get more abuse after this game and rightly so. England are probably the only international team in world football where Grealish wouldn't be the first name on the teamsheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThornburyVilla Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 He is definitely subdued, not sure if Southgate direction, or ridiculously slow build up play, or preserving energy as already through, or lack of confidence playing with England - versus the confidence he has when playing for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time it could reach Grealish everybody is back and in position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfTimePost Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Injured or not him and Saka have been our best players. I'd be considering Grealish Foden Saka in the next round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been many times already when a Villa player would've looked for him, but instead these players look elsewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam2003 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Just watching England and he’s the best player and all my non-Villa mates are texting me saying how amazing he is, then I come on here and people aren’t impressed. We have such high standards for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted June 22, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 22, 2021 Who's had the 12-1 bet on Jack getting fouled 7 times? I make it 3 or 4 so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the non-Villa fans saw him play at 10/10, their minds would be blown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t say it was unimpressed, more a case of knowing what he is capable of when the team works around him, and he has confidence to take it on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Southgate has had a word regarding tracking back etc. Hence the fouls he has given away. The other thing is some of the troglodytes he is playing with don’t look up and see him in acres of space (yes, Shaw, Kane: I’m talking about you) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
