2025/26 Jack Grealish


One thing for sure, nobody is paying 50 millions for him...maybe Saudi clubs if he wants to go there which is unlikely. I think we will sign him but for half of that fee.
We’re never progressing as a club if we’re signing 30 year old wide players who are past their best with no resale value
 
This. I love Jack. He feels like an Evertonian. With him and Ndiaye on the wings is exciting. But the glaring difference between the two is that Ndiaye’s mindset propels him to try and score if there’s so much as an inch of space. Jack will hold up, pull out, or look to cross. I want us to keep him. But can you imagine if he played like Ndiaye?
If he played like Illy, he wouldn't be Jack.
 

Evertonians turning their noses up at Grealish now because he hasn't scored for a couple of games

I LOVE the internet.
People will really watch that Myko performance and head straight to the Grealish thread to complain at full time. It's miraculous that he's been able to create as much as he has this season getting doubled up on every week.

Has built a strong connection with KDH which compensates for playing in front of Myko, but we shouldn't then be surprised that when KDH goes off injured Grealish struggles to impact the game. He's not a lightning fast wide player, he needs players to bounce the ball off.
 

Has to get a rest at some point. We have four very winnable games coming up after Arsenal and he should probably sit at least one out.

I mean, Burnley we should be seeing Dibling and McNeill playing wide and it should be enough to get something. Wolves at home in the New Year is also an opportunity to hand him a rest.
 
Straight up I'm not entirely sure that he's the best LW we have. It feels like we're putting him there because that was part of the conversation.
Our only star player was moved from his best position where he was scoring goals to accommodate a guy who doesn't offer the same threat. Perhaps the universe will implode or something if he's ever played anywhere other than wide left.
 
Look at the list of players over 30 who play that wide attacking role for top 6 teams, it's generally non-existent and has been for the past decade. Salah would be the main exception but generally you don't want to be signing 30 year old's. Personally, I wouldn't have even loaned Grealish, I think it was basically a waste of £12 million.

£15mil i think.

His first few games he was absolutely boss, difficult to keep that up week in, week out though. Agree with you on today, looked like he didn’t know what to do to get into the game.

Was class the first handful of games.

Too early to say if we should sign him imo.
But if Alcaraz or McNeil had thrown in some of his performances, they'd be crucified on here.
Phoning it in some games.
He's playing for a move, let's hope he can turn it on consistently.
Can't see there being queue of clubs ready to cough up £250k a week.

Moyes wouldnt have them starting if they performed as he has the past 2 or 3 games.

Who's the new Grealish? The one that goes to city for 100 million? What we need is a competent full back to help him out

Dibling as hes commonly referred to.

One thing for sure, nobody is paying 50 millions for him...maybe Saudi clubs if he wants to go there which is unlikely. I think we will sign him but for half of that fee.

£15mil and id be tempted £20mil at a push.

True, though there can be short-term players to bring the team on with leadership and experience.

Anyone moaning about Grealish has absolutely no idea about football. He's one of the top creators in the league statistically this season despite playing ahead of Mykolenko.

He's got 1 assist in his last 10 games.

He's also not our best left winger.

If Dibling comes good by season end then a Grealish signing isnt going to be a foregone conclusion.

Straight up I'm not entirely sure that he's the best LW we have. It feels like we're putting him there because that was part of the conversation.

Its definitely Ndiaye.

I'm not sure that having an attacking left back brings much more from Grealish than what were seeing. Which is fine for a slow build up passing team.

For a direct team then players cant hold onto the ball as he does allowing the opposition to get back into defensive positions.

Grealish at Villa is hopefully what Dibling becomes on our right with Ndiaye on the left.

Then 2 flying full backs would be a no brainer.
