He was never a finisher when he was full of confidence at Villa. Yet alone now as a busted flush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southgate isnt convinced still Gallagher too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what he's brought in for and should be judged on. He has be judged on them. He's the most expensive player in league history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He tried similar at Bayern and City and its boring to watch and not effective in Europe Have to agree with the original poster. The Tikka takka era of football made for extremely boring viewing. Spain's World Cup win versus the Netherlands springs to mind . Thank God Klopp and gegenpressing came along. Definitely changed football for the better.

I remember Spain in 2012 and it was dire as didnt play a striker. Possession for the sake of it. Probably what Lambert picked up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhan_Zhuang Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Emile Smith-Rowe, Jarrod Bowen could both be looking for a place in the WC squad. Greal-hiss just doesn't look the same player, he's running around in little circles on the left-side, checks back when receiving the ball and when he does take someone on he loses the ball. Maybe next season he'll fit better being an automaton, but then Guardiola is supposedly leaving them soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 His game now appears to be 90% of one touch backward passes or a couple of touches and a backward pass. What a **** waste. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, done nothing before that apart from miss a chance he should’ve taken. Does a run he’s famous for, for the first time and gets a great free kick, it’s not rocket science yet Man City haven’t let him do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 You can see he’s having to actually think when he’s moving off the ball. Might be that Pep makes him better positionally, but I just don’t think either of them are clever enough to achieve it. His team mates don’t trust him yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 I wonder what he;’s thinking about when he doesn’t have the ball? ‘I’ve really got to prove my worth when I get it’ ’Is Pep watching?’ ’Where do I need to stand now?’ ’I need to look happy when my teammates score without me’ ’What do I look like when I’m on camera’ ‘I wonder if I’ll meet a woman with big norks this evening? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally infuriating, and I felt a bit of a dig at Villa fans, for Southgate to suggest a few months back that Grealish was a much more confident, rounded player now he's at City. Really?
