villa89 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 (edited) What? He'll be one of the first names on the team sheet when he's back fit I don't think he will be Me either but I'd love to see him in the team ahead of Westwood.

bobzy Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 IMHO it's not in the least bit realistic to suggest Grealish should go out on loan. It would be utter bloody madness. I'm not sure it would. Is he a guaranteed, 100%, first team player at all times this season? If so, don't loan him. If not, would a loan do him any harm? I don't think there are many "guaranteed 100% first team player at all times this season" players in the squad, so, again, I think the yardstick you are using in order to justify sending him on loan is unrealistic as it would probably trip up 90% of the other players too. Jordan Amavi, Ciaran Clark, Micah Richards and Idrissa Gueye will play every game when fit. Grealish's competition for places is (presumably?) Carles Gil, Scott Sinclair, Jordan Ayew (assumed?), Joe Cole and (if we sign him) Adama Traore. 2 of these players have been brought by Sherwood, so you'd think they'll play quite a bit. Grealish is 19 and on the back of making a big impression at the end of last season. If he isn't going to be first choice, a loan really isn't "utter bloody madness" - it would actually be beneficial for his development. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fab Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Random prediction for the season: Jack will have the highest "foul drawn" to minutes played ratio in the league this season. Hopefully we'll score a bucketful from those set pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Well let's see what happens. I don't think he'll be loaned - and, for me, I'd rather see him start every game. I just don't think it'd be quite as ridiculous as some are making out if he does go on loan, given the competition for places that we seemingly now have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMcKenna Posted August 11, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted August 11, 2015 When fit he is an shoe-in. Cannot believe the suggestion that he should be loaned out. Sherwood may not give him the full 90 depending on opposition but he should be in the match day squad as he is a game changer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted August 11, 2015 Moderator Share Posted August 11, 2015 We have options now. ALL of those options will be used this season. In my view none of the players who could be regarded as competition to Grealish will play every game and all of the time. I'd say it'll be divvied up fairly equally. I also believe that amongst that list of players Grealish is one of; if not the best. So not only do I not think he will go out on loan, I find it strange that anyone would want one of our best options to be removed from the equation, especially if; as some suspect could happen; he ends up this season being the pick of the bunch. Hence why I said madness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 No Gil??? Villa89 out! I actually forgot about him. Get him in for Sinclair, now that would be some line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we'll score a bucketful from those set pieces. At the very least that's a massive reason for him to play. Foul, freekick, Gestede, goal.

V01 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 He's already made the jump... I need a GTFO GIF, stat. (Interesting fact, that don't actually say "stat" in hospitals. A doctor told me this) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I think once the window shuts, Grealish is the one player out of our attacking front 3 who is pretty much guaranteed to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Grealish should and will play more than enough minutes this season to continue his development and he has some good pros now to learn from. I am a big fan of getting kids out on loan to grow as players and people but not here. He will be playing games. I don't want him loaned out to some club who are going to harm him at this stage and be on that merry go round. He is too special. I am thinking Mceachran and Chalobah off the top of my head.

troon_villan Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 The only thing guaranteed under Sherwood is chances. I fully expect Grealish to be given his as soon as he's fit. Too many kids from the FM generation thinking they can loan a wonderkid to to the Championship for a month's fitness drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Back to reality he certainly has potential. Though I always think on here people get carried away cause he is one of our own. He is not a guaranteed first teamer that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
