2025/26 Jack Grealish

anyone else, not slept, not eat, not drank?

or just me?

i feel i’ve lost a piece of my everton happiness. i can’t function.

i will always love you worn our jersey
jack. always

i’m clearly mourning for jack lads.

I wasn't even going to come on the Forum this week, and now this has happened..

Just tell yourself it's not the end of our journey mate.

Its been 17 hours and nearly a day
Since you took my Jack away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your foot away
Since you've been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing, I said, nothing can take away
these blues

'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

It's been so lonely without you here
Like DCL without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me, Grealish, where did I go wrong

I could put my arms around Beto and Barry
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor and guess what he told me?
Guess what he told me?
He said, "Matt, you better try to have fun no matter what you do,"
But he's a fool

'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

All the goals you assisted, Grealish, at the Dicky Hill
All died when you went away
I know that living with you, baby, was sometimes hard
But watching Mcneil I'd rather die

Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares to you

Contact City immediately with two options:

1. Sell him permanently to us now for £15 million — us taking the risk of him coming back to his current level.

2. They take him back immediately and give us a partial refund of the fee we paid for the season, taking his rehab into their own hands, if they're confident their facilities are better than ours and they can bring him back to fitness and sell him for higher to somebody else.
 
...and you see where the injudicious use of him has got us: a player we paid a large loan deal for who we've had 20 games out of and no more than that.

Wouldn't it have been a far better strategy to play Grealish and then rest him every 3 games or so?....or have him come off the bench and limit game time that way?

This is a self-inflicted wound. There's not getting away from it.
So what you are saying is. Play Grealish for 75% of the season.

Which is 28.5 games.

He’s currently played 20 games or 90% of our games so far.

Based on those maths. He COULD have played 34 games in total.

Meaning an Elite level premier league athlete plays a whopping 5.5 games more than your wish. Or 0.6 games extra per month

Would you then be complaining he would have then cost more £/game?

It’s an injury. It’s part and parcel of the game

Depends what they were doing t the time. no doubt a 'warm down' routine or whatever will be uses by Everton as the 'real' occurrence - no flys on them.

Yes, Grealish may have wanted to play every minute, but that's not really an argument as it's Everton who have control over the situation and when he plays and doesn't.
The lack of information about what exactly happened makes it all the more curious, how determined you are to place the blame very specifically on one person. Almost as if there's an agenda, there.

If a player insists upon a certain amount of playing time as a condition of their move, that takes away the element of control to which you refer. I highly doubt the club would want to be known as the type that would renege on deals with key players, lest we make it harder to complete big ticket transfers down the line.
 
Anyone know how he's done it yet?

Depends which one of the bro scientists you ask.

Could be a drinking related injury from a wild night in Dubai.

Could be the farmers field pitches at FF.

Could be the fact that we employ lads who work at the Tommy Frost to look after fitness, conditioning and recovery.

Or then there’s Dave’s theory, Moyes hit his foot with a lump hammer.

Take your pick.

Is having him for 8.5 more games to be sniffed at? Better than having him for 20 games where he's maybe also fatigued or carrying knocks too, isn't it?
