Zatman Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 1 hour ago, Rino8 said: I think Kane was probably an issue there. His work rate isn't cracking and it only gets worse as the game goes on. Into extra time he becomes a traffic cone but you can't take him off because he's still capable with the ball at his feet. So you leave him on, and try to make up for it elsewhere. Maybe if Kane didnt think he was a full back/defensive midfielder he would probably be more useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The clause was added to to stop him fobbing off the club further after trying to join United on the cheap that summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t read too much into this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can't be relied upon / chosen for this, what chance for later in the season when games really matters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can't be relied upon / chosen for this, what chance for later in the season when games really matters? I'm not a Jack defender, I think he'll probably be off at the end of the season. But I just don't think Palmer starting this game means anything of significance. Grealish is in that bracket with Ake, Mahrez, etc. who are trusted to start the occasional big game and a decent number of the smaller PL games, but aren't top of the tree like KDB, Cancelo, Rodri, etc. We obsess over Grealish because he played for us, but most of the City squad get rotated regularly. It's just the nature of having such a big squad. It's not his lack of starts that is the issue, it's his performances when he does start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say that, and I don't disagree, but at the same time foden and silva are also on the bench Palmer and Mahrez will be dropped for the PL game He'll get his 40 appearances and his medals this season I agree with @KentVillan apart from selling him, they won't, mahrez will go first, silva will have a lot more suitors too if they really are daft enough to shop him around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny how the £100m figure probably seemed like a stroke of genius from Purslow when they agreed it, then when Man City came in for Grealish, it felt like we'd been robbed of a player worth £150m to us... and now it's gone back to seeming like a great bit of business. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think of City tried sell him in the summer they would be lucky to get 60 million for him Both parties deserve what happened and its not like we never called it on here. Grealish was never suited to Peps micro management and City didnt need Grealish 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
