Nearly 3x as many prem minutes as Dewsbury-Hall last year.CannockPricey wrote: ↑Wed Aug 06, 2025 1:38 pm Well, he ought to be fresh as he hasn't wasted any effort on football for a long while.
It's about knowing where his head is at. Don't think he's too arsed about England one way or the other but if he wants to prove people wrong and play properly, there could be an upside.
Re: Jack Grealish
As long as the finances work in our favour, I'd be all over him.
He's a really good footballer and I don't think Pep has had any problems with his attitude or application during his time there? He just doesn't fit the way he wants to play now?
Make him the big fish in a small pond again, give him some responsibility and the world cup to aim for and he'll have us purring.

Re: Jack Grealish
Great player I’m very suspect about his motivation though we don’t want to get stuck with an obligation if it doesn’t work out
Re: Jack Grealish
I’m more in the wary camp, mainly down to finances and where his head is perceived to be. That said, outside of football he has always come across as a huge empath who supports and cares for people. That side of him really suits us and what we do off the field.

Re: Jack Grealish
Yeah, I think most City fans agree he played far too much.
In seriousness, not sure what happened last year. City were awful but Grealish was shit even by those much lowered standards. If he's determined to prove that was a blip of a season, it could work. I'm definitely not as confident as some.
In a world full of adversity, we must still dare to dream.

Re: Jack Grealish
I've posted this before but friend of mine is a well known journalist, told me a few months ago that this was a potential deal to be done here. Grealish is happy and settled in the Northwest. Similar to why Pickford probably hasn't moved on. Not always about football.
Re: Jack Grealish
I don't get the question marks over his motivation to play for England. When Carlsey was in charge he immediately put Grealish in the 10 and he was absolutely class. England's best player.
As soon as Tuchel came in it was curtains for him so I'd imagine he'll be desperate to get back in prove what he can do.

Re: Jack Grealish
I think that's it. Tuchel doesn't fancy him and I don't think he's arsed that Tuchel doesn't fancy him. I don't think Tuchel would play a way to suit him either so I just don't think that'll be a factor.AjaxAndy wrote: ↑Wed Aug 06, 2025 3:58 pm I don't get the question marks over his motivation to play for England.

That's not to say he won't want to have a good season. I just don't see that as the motivation.
