2025/26 Jack Grealish

Sure mate if you want to use "more productive" rather than best :)

Point still stands of course, what do you reckon?
I’ve said a few times I have concerns over how much he would cost, but that’s all relative to how much we have to spend.
If we’ve got loads to spend then absolutely get him back, if that means using 30-50% of our funds I’m quite sceptical.
Unfortunately the flip side is, based on last summers window, he would be a sure thing compared to the highly hit and miss spending that went on.
So is dropping £28 - £40m on him a bigger risk than letting our team of ‘experts in their field’ loose to spend the same on a load of players who simply don’t contribute for whatever reason 😖
 
Clearly Grealish isnt world class.

He's not the best left winger in the world
He's not the best left winger in Europe
He's not the best left winger in the Prem
He's not the best left winger at Everton
Hes world class , won the lot , earned the lot , wants to play for Everton.

His game management is second to none. Give him a full pre season and more time to settle in and watch how good he will be.

he wants to stay we want him to stay

The end
 
Are people honestly saying they don't want him? Out yourselves
I think we need an overlapping fullback to go with him. I like Myko but he does not gel with Grealish. We could also use Grealish in the centre. It is complicated in that Grealish is excellent but too old to build a team around and he does slow our attacks. Has to be in the squad but I think how he is used should depend on the game. He should not be a shoe-in on the left for every game.

He hasn't played as a number 10 since his early Villa days so I'm not sure why there is a suggestion for this to happen going forward?

I hear you

Id have loved to have seen Grealish in a team with Branthwaite starting. I wonder whether our view of the Grealish-Mykolenko relationship would change if Myko was playing next to Branners instead of Keane.

I get the overlapping full back argument, but with an attacking full back we'd also be asking Grealish to do more defensive cover. Would that work? Is it better to have a defensive full back on his side to give him the license to stay high?

Don't have the answers to those but I think you have to want Grealish back here. Players that good can't be turned down in our position

Think would be worth to try some games if does sign can drop kdh into the midfield aswell. Just gives us another option esp if get another winger in aswell or we can get more from Dibling like he was at southampton

Just can't see Moyes doing it to be honest. I'm not saying it's not worth trying but I can't see it being implemented
