How do you know how much alcohol he drinks?

Because the media have released 4 different stories of him being drunk over the last 10 years of his career.

That's a documented bender every 2.5 years. 

If you ask me, that's a career ending death wish.

If you were asked to pick out who you thought might be the biggest drinker in the squad, who would you choose: the guy who drinks for 72 hours straight at the victory parade and has to be carried out his front door to the next event, or someone else?

Someone else, the one you don't know about or would never suspect, seen it time and time again,  big drinkers drug users are stealth like creatures.

Grealish is alot of things, foolish, naive a media magnet and he sells papers and gets hits. 

He's also, on his day, the best footballer I have seen at Villa Park, at times he was unplayable. 

He's not an alcoholic or drug user, he's just a very naughty boy 😁

(I would have him back in a heart beat)

Sure although you can add to grealish’s list that he’s been caught in numerous drink related incidents in the past and said in interviews that he will always enjoy going on a night out.

No ones doubting grealish’s ability. But for some reason this thread has morphed into equating him with players like young in terms of fitness/professionalism and ignoring all the evidence in front of our eyes

Fair enough, footballs a results business and Grealish gave us them in spades

I thought during the season he was tee total? Isn't that why he has those benders in the summer because he's been off the booze for 10 months?

My money is on Kyle Walker.

Very little of it down to him all fairness though. Hardly gets a kick these days.

Without him in the team. 
 

Back to the original point. No one’s saying that if we couldn’t have grealish back for free it would be a bad idea (or if they are then I disagree with them). But the transfer and wage cost would be huge and he’d likely have not that much resale value by the time we looked to move him on at 32-33 (which is where the professionalism point comes in). Plus we’re already well stacked in his position with Ramsey, McGinn, tielemans, Buendia (when fit) all able to play there. I’d rather spend the money on younger options for the squad at CM, RB and striker. 
 

In any case given the cost constraints I suspect he’ll end up either in MLS or Saudi soon enough cause no one in Europe will fork out the £50m plus to get him

I really find this sort of opinion amusing. 
Apart from liking some nights out, is there any evidence that Grealish doesn’t look after his fitness?

I know through an ex Villa player that he likes a very regular drink throughout the season, and parties fairly hard in the off season.

Not saying he’s the wild man sometimes portrayed. I don’t think the Gazza, Merson, etc comparisons are at all appropriate.

But to retire in your late 30s, you usually need to take extreme care of your diet and nutrition, and he definitely isn’t living like that.

That’s part of the charm, though, and he’ll still be a decent player into his early 30s I’d imagine, unless he picks up a bad injury. A few on here engaging in spiteful wishful thinking.

Nobody on here knows how much he drinks, how often he drinks so I find it amusing that people use that as a reason his career will last. Fact Is modern footballers carry on playing well Into their mid 30s at a high level and i bet some of them enjoy a night out.

Maybe not, but it’s pretty obvious he drinks more than your average top flight pro.

Oh, so one big documented sesh because they won the treble, (or whatever they were celebrating), results in this...

... it's **** mental.

"Amount of alcohol" - we have no idea how much he drinks. 

"We know about for certain" - You're killing me!
