You say that, but would you have him here as DOF. I certainly would want him anywhere near our club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance He's got a job for life at England and the FA, the talk of which PL team would take him is pointless, he'll still be England manager in the 2030s unless he has an absolute mare and doesn't qualify for the WC before a UK euros which let's be honest won't happen And hes already going to go down as the greatest England manager not to win anything, if he does win something he will be number 1, history will judge him by his stats written down on paper and they are very very good, just don't watch his football and you'll be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made In Aston Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Grealish dancing onto the stage wearing shades for man city's title celebration party was one of the most cringeworthy things I've seen. Sends a shiver down my spine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wont Listen to the commentary during the WC and hear how they will dumb it down to suit the level they perceive the target audience to be England has a huge fanbase, not all of them will members of forums or even club team fans and give a shit, they'll turn up every 2 years and see England get a final and a semi final and think Southgate is the bees knees And that's before I throw in southgates bosses being the FA, as long as the boxes at Wembley sell out and Nike increase their deal when it's up for renewal they won't give a shit if the football is boring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Algeria went 37 unbeaten in the same period, I'm sure England could have dispatched them too. With good tactics and team selection I think England could have won that game in normal time.

Just the 15 goals in 7 knockout games vs PSG, Chelsea, Man City and Liverpool. Complete boredom Liverpool the attacking entertainers scored fewer goals in the knockout stage and had a much easier draw Edited May 30, 2022 by Zatman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punkiller1981 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Just a thought here but is Jack in danger of becoming a bit of a parody? Just looking in the paper and the stories are about him partying on holiday with d list celebrities. let’s be honest this season he hasn’t really been in the papers for his football this season and I think from a personal perspective (not a trophy perspective) his performances have been very poor compared to the previous two seasons. He seems to me to be in danger of getting more paper time for his off the field shambles than what he does on it. he is getting paid a fortune every week and picking up trophies for watching his team mates play so I doubt he cares but i do wonder if we are seeing a wasted talent being driven by a poor greedy agent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Did you hear the forest player interviewed in the changing room? He said his plan to celebrate is to turn into Jack Grealish and this would be the only time he'd know what it's like to be him. Most expensive player in league history and after winning the title, he's spoken more about how drunk he was than anything he actually did on the pitch to contribute to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 (edited) The kid is a rockstar now, he always was locally but now its more global. He loves it, we all called the new Beckham a good few years ago, now its come true and its City who will reap the rewards and not us. We all wanted him to see it through our eyes and help build our club back up to where we feel it should be; but he was always going to act in his own interests and that was the glory and money City will provide, more exposure playing CL, Gucci deal, etc. Our magnificent owners did what they could to keep him but he chose the route he did, didnt want “Chilly, Madders’ Lil’ Phil” n them digging him out anymore about being trophyless and everything else. His ego was probably not prepared to put up with it hence the continued looking for a way out the last 3 years. Sad to accept as a fan but its probably how a players mind works, fan or not. The best way for us to hit back is to be successful ourselves, and show we’ll be better without him than we ever were with him; it certainly seems to have made our owners more determined.

This some sort of satire? The new Beckham, he is nowhere near that level and he wont get to it. Some on here said he would be Ballon Dor nominated at City but he is further away than before At the same age as Jack, Bend it like Beckham was released in the cinema and made millions at the box office.

Get on it like Grealish is in the works Beckham was at the biggest club in the country, arguably the world, when he rose to that level, Jack has been slumming it at Villa. Slight difference. You saw the fandom as soon as rocked up with England. Unfortunately, so did City. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
