BigJim Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Given how woeful our other attacking players are, I fail to see why we can't give him a run in the team. Nothing to lose at this stage. I'm going to assume a problem with attitude rather than ability. Even then, if he's good enough to make a difference - play him. I doubt very much that anyone on the staff questions his ability. It's PL experience that he lacks, and there's only one way to get that. I would love to see him in the same team as Gil, that would take a lot of pressure off Jack, and maybe a little off Gil as well. I really hope we don't get Sinclair in and shunt him out on loan. I believe he can produce the goods if we show some faith in him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KSV Posted January 20, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2015 Even Robinson deserves a shot. Gabby has lacked any movement at all upfront and offers nothing. Robinson is also quick and hes a poacher. Should have been given a few chances as well. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 maybe the manager feels he needs 100 games in 'mans football' .......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) I think it is a poor decision to send this lad out on loan. Why on earth can't we play with 4 attackers in the team? By that I mean, 4-3-3 with Delph & Sanchez holding, Gil as attacking midfielder behind Benteke and then Grealish and one of Gabby, Weimann or N'Zogbia as the other 2 players in the front 3. Or, 4-4-2 with Grealish and Gil on the wings, Delph & Sanchez in centre midfield with Benteke up front with either gabby or Weimann? Why do we need to only have two attacking players in our starting 11 like last Saturday? No wonder we aren't ******* scoring goals!

Cliffy Biro Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Loan out Grealish if we can get Sinclair in for 4m? Just not seeing the logic in this. Yes some say Jack is not ready but by all accounts neither is Sinclair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ermie123 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Stop saying "Gabby" he's fekkin useless!!

romavillan Posted January 20, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 20, 2015 Best be another trequartista/winger coming in if we're loaning out Grealish seeing as we can't keep Cole fit for more than 5 minutes a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You what now??????????????????? 1) Gabby isn't useless, just misused. 2) Lerner doesn't dictate to managers who should and shouldn't be playing. 3) Gabby isn't shite.

The_Steve Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Also, that tweet was idiotic. I sympathise but he's done nothing to justify more than a bit part in the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villastine Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 This kids a bit of a dick! Keep your gob shut kid and get on with it. Nothing wrong with a bit of confidence/attitude. He's not done anything wrong. If he was turning up late for training or out on the piss I'd agree. Wanting to play football is hardly a negative.

sheepyvillian Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Not ready to start so a short loan makes sense. When has he had a run of games to prove he's ready ? Nothing idiotic about the tweet , just a kid venting his fustration . What is idiotic is the decision to leave him out the squad altogether , when the likes of Cleverley can seem to do no wrong . It's a fecking joke , but I aint laughing . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPower_14 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Grealish has looked lively but let's face it, what has he actually done to help us score when he's been given a chance apart from win the odd free kick? I mean I guess being the only person in our front third who isn't doing their best corpse impression is a bonus, but he's not quite ready yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozvillafan Posted January 21, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 21, 2015 Is Grealish better than any other winger/wide player we have at the moment? Yes. So should he start? Yes. Will Lambert start him? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted January 21, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 21, 2015 Is Grealish better than any other winger/wide player we have at the moment? No So should he start?

Rob182 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Is Grealish better than any other winger/wide player we have at the moment? Yes. So should he start? Yes. Will Lambert start him? No. Is he better than any other wide players we have at the moment? Tonev, yes. Gil, no (who I'm assuming we're ignoring for this particular post). The rest? I'm not so sure. He definitely has the potential to be much better on the wing than Weimann, Gabby, Bacuna & Richardson, but right now, he's too raw, imo. He occasionally hides in his shell, he looks a bit frightened to attack his man (probably for fear of the crowd moaning) his workrate is occasionally questionable and his decision making can lack at times. If he stays he for the season, he needs to be getting appearances in the games we're likely to have a chance of winning: Hull, Sunderland, Bournemouth etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mic09 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I can't believe some of you see nothing wrong with this tweet. Imagine you work in an office and are given a shitty job to do. If you tweeted something alon the lines of 'i cant wait to be given a less shitty job', not only would you be questioning your managers ability to pick the best role for you, you would also be openly opposing their decision. Any leader would not be having none of it. If you managed people at all, you would know this is a big no no, and I would not be surprised not seeing Jack start this season at all because of this. Be humble, play football, get off the computer Jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
