2025/26 Jack Grealish

Crying out for a overlapping left back to help him

Imagine Baines playing just behind him. Mykolenko can be a decoy run but you'd never actually want Grealish to pass the ball to him.

Let's see if the new kid have a cross in him. We need a LB with some pace and cross.

If not let's see if we can loan someone during winter window.

Worth the entrance fee just to see those beautiful calves

Have we already started to over rely on Grealish? I’m all for getting value out of a loan, but Villa seemed to double team him whenever they could. He got plenty of crosses in though, just no luck at the other end.

I think we are relying on Beto having more luck than not, he aint composed, he's just gonna have a go at goal and pretty much snatch at any chance, when he's lucky it finds a way in, he's never gonna sit a keeper down or dance the ball round him, he doesn't have that skillset.
Moyes needs a Yakubu, that out and out finisher, a natural.

We need to be less telegraphed not everything has to go through him, then we need to be clever about how we use the pace deter if three players around him.

It'll come, he had Garner LB yesterday, if there was a Stones type CB that could wedge the ball about accurate sides wouldn't be able to isolate like they have. Thing is, we're rotating different players in and getting them used to games, so options will present themselves when we have variants of play to introduce in games where oppositions are tired. Need that Yakubu cold blooded finisher.

I don’t think we made full use of the fact that they were doubling up on him. Need runners from midfield in my opinion. Wouldn’t mind seeing Röhl over Tim to improve that. Also having a natural left back will help too.

They put two men on him or even three DM has to adjust the line to stop that happening - They made a change in midfield & DM just scratched his head - his changes again were far too late - the way they were playing for a draw & that 8 second rule was blown out the water by Villa yesterday - Martinez must have taken 30 seconds each time to release the ball & it started as the game commenced - Grealish was man marked out of the game - but still caused trouble ... Villa got the 0-0 they came for with the referee on fouls & time wasting being their best player - lets see if Pickford can get away with that next game with the other lot - I doubt it very much ....

Fancy popping over to help him Erling?
