KentVillan Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 The weird thing is... The worse things go for him there, and the more their plastic know nothing fans turn on him. The more I want to defend him. I know he's a great player. He let us down, definitely, and I have no sympathy for his plight, because it serves him right. But he's a great player. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will now be coached within an inch of his life and he will hate every minute of it. *coughs* 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like he will be full of regrets about how this move is playing out. Only half the picture mate. And I wish him well still. I don't think he'll be truly happy being a spare part of a trophy. One that people start to resent too, they were booing him yesterday also. Edited December 30, 2021 by AVTuco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Fan stats on BBC have Grealish as the worst player on the pitch, with 4.8/10 - the next lowest Man City player is Jesus on 5.98. Whoscored have him at 6.8/10 as the third worst City player, and Sofascore have him at 6.7/10 and the worst city player (and only 4 worse Brentford players). It was a very poor game from him, but I think the fan ratings probably tell a story of the expecations of a £100m player. He doesn't look worth half that in a City shirt.

The 2 things we know about him is that he hates not playing. And that he likes the limelight on him. Football moves on quickly and he is turning from Gazza to Darren Anderton . All those Vogue articles in the summer are long gone . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 When Ferran Torres wanted to leave, pep said that City never stand in the way of a player if he wants out. I don’t know how true that is, but it would be very interesting if Grealish wanted to leave at the end of the season. I don’t know Jack and if it’s purely money that floats his boat then he’ll stay, but I could potentially see part of him wanting to come back and play for Villa sooner rather than later. If there is a deal to be done, I wonder if we’d be interested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I think we as a club are done with Jack for now and I can’t see there being a deal to be done next summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have pretty much wrote him out of our history over the last few months I dont think Gerrard would take him either 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Citeh, like any top club need to renew their squad with the top talent every season. That they could throw £100 mill at JG and probably also Kane if they had their way just shows how powerful they are. They will win the league again because they have a better squad than anyone else and the best manager. JG went there for all these reasons, he wanted to be a part of what he perceives as the 'best' - so it's absolutely hilarious his performance levels are now that of a robot - he literally sold his soul.
