Harry Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 If Grealish's name was Westwood VT would be all over him. As he is 'one of our own' he gets away with murder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys probably had only a handful of excellent games for us. He is has been very shit just like every one else. Buthe what anboys me is he thinks he is something special he isn't. Just player with potential that's Chieveley **** all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 To be fair he was useless tonight. I hope it was just a off day for him- but how often has he really run the show in a football match? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 (edited) Day off? Come on.. whens he had a day on?? Most overated player i have ever seen on the forums. How many games has he played that we actually won? Seriously. Look into it. He is a liability and its like we are playing with 10 men. I think he may go onto become a decent player.. but maybe he just cant handle it at Villa.. the way Stan couldnt. Needs to be benched and put in a player who will put in..

Just let everyone do his pressing for him. Jumped out of everything. Was always a yard off his man...didn't even try and go shoulder to shoulder or force something. Is this a shock to people? Grealish has been doing this all season long. Defensively he just doesn't care at all. We have conceded quite a few goals because Grealish refuses to track his runner, or even close down space.

People just use the fact he's a Villa fan as a stick to beat him with "because he should want it more". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the most gifted player at the club, looks fantastic on the ball, but what does he actually do with it....and do we win when he starts? Jedinak is nowhere near grealish as far as skill and natural talent goes, but with him in instead of grealish we win more games. Yes its ugly, but we win more games....and that is all we need at rhe moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czechlad Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I think if Green has gotten the minutes and starts Grealish has had this season, Green would have had a bigger impact. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Loan him out to get game time somewhere else because he's doing nothing for us when given a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I expected more from him this season, with his ability he really should stand out but he doesn't, and even though he has played under some awful managers in awful systems he hasn't really shown the character to step up and really show us what he's made of and what he can do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think its that simple with Jack unfortunately. Just my opinion but I think if we were playing decent football he wouldn't get in the team.

My point was more about the fact he not really as good a player as many think he is rather than how he plays in any game. Over the years all the evidence suggests that our academy isn't that good at producing premiership or perhaps even championship grade players.
