Sticking pics up in dubai with villa bum boys wont go down well when hes been dogshit for two games
You don’t think Pep has told him to stop taking people on? Grealish has just suddenly thought, “I love taking people on but why do that here? I’m going to stop”. Come on Nick mate, he’s fitting in with our system. Mahrez and Sterling both used to skin people and they don’t do that anymore. They’ve been taught to fit in with the way we play. Sanè’s game was about skinning people and now where is he?
Pep has said this weekend it was Grealish’s best game for City. So he’s clearly happy with what he’s doing.
I’d absolutely love for us to use Grealish how he was played at Villa - but unfortunately that’s not how the team works. Or, if we play him more central then maybe he could drive at defenders, but that would mean Bernardo dropping deeper and not doing that role.
