His hearts in the right place I think at his heart he’s a very good person. He gets in his own way at times, with how dumb he seems to be. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 I shouldn't have read it and it shouldn't bother me anymore, but it still does. Our former captain is reported as having said the following in the Mail Online. Link below (although that's all he has to say about us): "When I was at Villa nobody had paid any money for me so it didn’t matter if I played bad. Also, 90 per cent of the games were not live on TV so people wouldn’t notice anyway." It mattered to us and we did notice it (although admittedly, that didn't often happen). I know that he's aiming those remarks at pundits, but the quote to an extent, belittles us as a club, in my opinion. Reminds me a bit of Ian Ormondroyd who once said on joining us from Bradford City, "I'm in the big time now". https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-12051511/Jack-Grealish-face-Gucci-100m-City-maverick-loves-joke-Haaland.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 I don't think it belittles us and it's the truth... He's now a £100m player who is on TV far more often He's exposed to a different audience with different expectations Shame he didn't go on to say this new audience never got to see what we all got to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 The main thing I took away from that interview is that even after a couple of seasons under a Pep, he doesn't look after himself, and thinks it's funny to give shit to Haaland for taking care of his body. And that's why, injuries willing, I wouldn't be surprised to see Haaland going until his late 30s racking up numbers, whereas I wouldn't be surprised to see Grealish done by the time he's 32 and having a face like a ballbag when he's 40. The Gabby to Haaland's Young, if you like. Reminds me of one of the thick kids at school who think it's funny to care. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olof82Mellberg4 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 And that's why he left. Champions League final and treble incoming for Jack. Excellent again tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonLax Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 His looking a lot more comfortable at this level now. Took a while to settle in but he’s made that starting spot his and putting in regular good performances in big matches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KentVillan Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 It’s good to see him playing well again and justifying what we all said when he was here. He’s a very stupid man and full of shit, but what a player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KentVillan Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 People have stopped watching games with their eyes. There's no way on earth Jack Grealish is the main chance creator in this City side or in European football. He gets credited with a "chance created" every time he drives to the edge of the box, runs out of ideas, rolls a hospital pass back to someone 30 yards out, and they blast it wide. That's why he has only 1 assist out of 35 chances created in the Champions League. Whereas KDB has 7 assists out of 21 chances created. Grealish had an excellent game, no doubt... kept possession well, and it was a beautiful cross for the Haaland chance. But the idea he's now England's most prolific chance creator at this level... madness. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Imagine if Pep loosened the leash a little bit. He'd be such a joy to watch. Just a tiny bit of solace there that we got to see Jack The Entertainer while he was here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
