His football intelligence is way above the rest of them that it's more than likely there's something on - and there was in that situation. Its not that every time Jack gets the ball he does right. Sometimes there are better choices but I guess his faith in teammates is low. But the Hourihane one was annoying, if he gave it to Jack that would have been a goal 8 of 10 times.

I know he doesn't do everything right and he had a bad game on Saturday (who didn't?). I just mean that he doesn't ask for the ball when he knows he can't do anything. Not that he's hiding or anything, just he sees when things are on when others don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdman Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Jack wasn't great but unfortunately when you constantly dance through a field of 5h1t eventually you get 5h1t on ya shoes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 25, 2020 Moderator Share Posted February 25, 2020 I'm fed up of seeing this £70m valuation the papers have convinced themselves on. Iwobi went for £40m+ last season and there are a number of high profile teams competing for Grealish's signature - for me I'd be disappointed if the club let him go for anywhere near £70m and if he has to go, I'd be hoping for twice that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in the current market, prices have ballooned to an extent where that wouldn't be the case for very long. Average Premier league players are changing hands for £30-40m - genuine stars like Grealish are worth a lot more than that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t say he was average, I’ve never said that about him, I did say that he has become overrated which I think he has. We can say he is world class when he’s performed consistently well for a top club in the Premier League or the Champions League until then he is a good Premier League player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
