So you choose to post with us rather than a mixed forum.
Jack Grealish | Man City
- Thread starter RDCR07
- Start date
What did you want though? "Good post, never thought of that before"
You peddled a myth that have been going for 3 years now, and Padr responded accordingly.
He isn't told to play safe or robotic, like all our other wingers it is just the way Grealish solves the wing-role he is given. That style struck a good balance in the team for a while hence Pep picking him for it.
When he is played centrally, he is more comfortable taking risks, but Pep obviously doesn't rate him as a midfielder. Wrongly in my opinion because the best midfield performance any City player has had this season were Jack against Forest

Sound I will put both city fans on ignore.
I think the responses to your outburst proves why
This is what I've done, and I would recommend you do the same.
Although I accept oppo supporters post here, I couldn't care less about the opinions of most City fans in particular, so it's easier to just ignore them.
Wasting your time. No idea that they are the exact style of posters who make other forums cesspools and echo chambers. Just slap them on ignore and let them yell into the void.
The fact both those numbers are 81 and 84 suggest both 40+ year old men too... but such is the internet.
For what it's worth, I and most of the posters on Redcafe (am sure), welcome oppo fans. It brings healthy debate and makes Redcafe a better forum.
I see nothing wrong with @padr81 and @FeedTheGoat's posts above on Grealish.

Opposition fans are literally what makes the caf a great place to discuss football. Talking about things with just United fans would get tiresome very quickly. The "Why are fans of another team here" comments are so lame.
Back to Grealish, I'd forgotten he existed until he shepherded Nunes away from a snarling Gabriel 3 minutes after the game ended. What a waste of a footballer.
He should really have been one of the top superstars in football. A total maverick.
I wish we’d went for him when we signed Sancho. Ole would have given Grealish the freedom and confidence he needed.

Grealish issue isn't lack of freedom. Every other player they have seems to have it. It's just that he doesn't do anything with it. It's quite possible he would have been better at United but maybe he is just suited to play in a counter attacking side.
Turns 30 in September. Won everything at City but did almost nothing worthy even though he's been there in prime years for footballer. Surely he'll leave in summer to try and get at least some of that form he had at Villa.
Really poor signing but in a successful team so it doesn't look as bad as Antony, Pepe etc.

Are you 12? Your string of responses in here is pathetic.
I think his issue is he was far better in a more counter attacking side than the possession machine city is.
And he's become far more risk averse at city. The latter could be a confidence thing as much as a training thing.
Signs point to him being around 43.
Opposition fans make here far more interesting, would be a lesser place without them.
Anyway I also think Grealish would have been better off declaring for Ireland instead of England. Good for fame, especially in Euro 2021 and getting lots of fangirls. Good for his bank balance, probably wouldn't have gone for £100m without the English tax. But at Ireland, he would have played number 10 and had the team run through him for his whole career and could have been a Bale-type figure. He probably would have got Ireland to some tournaments, and might have kept his confidence up in a team that had faith in him if every international break he was going to be top dog. At England, he's never been more than a sub in tournaments, mostly a fringe player anyway.

I'm sure he has. But I'm pretty sure it's a confidence thing. Maybe he is one of thise players that needs to know he will start every game in order to thrive.
Of course it does. Look at RAWK; one big echo chamber. Where is fun in that?
"We are great"

"I agree. We are awesome"

"We are best team ever"
And our oppo fans posters are smart enough to not come on United related threads and gloat there.
I agree with this, when teams pushed up and Jack didn't have to deal with like no space in front of him or cluttered defences he was better for it. It suited his playstyle more as he wasn't always dealing with traffic and turning backwards. He'll never to super productive but he would be a good player in a transition based team.
I'm guessing he's gone in the summer.
Some of these footballers 
Not the brightest.
Modern Dwight Yorke, won the treble and checked out
Except that Dwight Yorke a) actually contributed to the Treble win and b) scored 20 league goals the season after.
"Jesus, Pep, I swear I only had the one."
Does that mean Grealish didn’t win the treble or
Are people finally over celebrating what a 'lad' he is?
Tbf not a single one of them did. Doesn’t count when it’s fraudulent.
This. He certainly didn't win a legitimate treble like we did.
Different kind of trebles in Newcastle pubs
Apparently Yorke asked Ferguson for a year off or something after winning it haha. He was unbelievable in 1999 but really wasn’t arsed in the long term, loved partying too much.
His calves look smaller.
He might end up going on a free when his deal is up? Another wasted 100 million
Not like City care about wasted money anyway. They'll just invent another fake sponsor to put another billion into the club.
https://talksport.com/football/1373...end Dwight Yorke,and expected his full salary.Is there a source for this?
Person in being drunk after a visit to the pub shocker
And of course, after you've been drunk you can never play football again.

He probably thought he wouldn't get recognised in Newcastle.
Of course you can but just not at the same level.
