A player that floats about looking for space to link play score and assist.
A space interpreter? Haha, what a load of utter bollocks.
I think it describes Alli pretty well. Second striker doesn't work because he drops too deep and wide. It just means a player that has a free role to look for space and there's no real term in English to describe this. Moreover, you hear endless arguments on here as to which position that Alli actually plays.
Can't see any players from Leicester leaving in the summer. With a few more additions and no Europe, they will be fighting for top 4.
It’s just these stupid names that get given to certain players’ positions and this is one of those “hipster” phrases that just sounds ridiculous.
Which position do you think Alli plays then?
He’s a floater, an irritating little shit that just won’t go away.
So you can't frame it then. I don't see any issue with using a name for a position that isn't native to England, especially when we don't have any descriptive term for it. Instead you get people endlessly arguing if he's a midfielder or a forward.
Fair enough, this is clearly an important issue for you and I’m just taking the piss. Space interpreter it is.
Good player,creates a lot of chances,technical and is a United fan.Maybe we should aim players who would really want to be here for a change,also English,young and has quality.If Pogba leaves he should for certainly be considered as somewhat of a creative replacement.
I wouldn’t mind him and Maguire tbh, would give us a good English core.
Thought he was good again yesterday.
Fair enough. It's not an important issue for me. Just that the description fits him perfectly even down to this type of player lacking technically.
Your joke was amusing I'll give you that.
He'd cost so much now though. If we want to sign a player from The Championship of great potential, like Maddison last season, then Grealish is that player.
So true
Would be deadwood within 3 weeks or have attitude problems and the core of our rot (or whatever crap people will come out with to justify the shit performance of poor managers)
Seems to be an utter idiot:

I really like Grealish. Very good player: energetic, determined and always keen to help the midfield. Plus he's a very tactical player, he gets fouled a lot.
I guess the only doubt would be his lack of consistent end product through a season. Maddison had that last season for Norwich. I think Grealish is a player that would look a lot better in a better side though. I think refs would protect him more in the PL too. Some of the assaults on him by opposition players in The Championship are ridiculous.
Looking forward to seeing what he can do in the play-offs.
It's a very old phrase that has a specific meaning.
Doesnt surprise me. Fantastic young player. Also the only player to score 3 or more freekicks in the league
Yup. Leicester sure know how to pick up talents!!
He seems like the type of player Pep would target to improve City, possibly looking at a long term replacement for KDB or David Silva. Wouldn't be surprised at all if he's got their attention.
he's too much of an individual for Pep
He plays like a French player. Really like him. Can be too individualistic sometimes.
What improvements do people think he needs to make in his game to be a better player ?
Speed up his decision-making. I think technically he's fine but his decision-making needs some work IMO.
Be a lot more consistent.
And our fans wanted this guy
? Sounds like a grade A cnut

Decision making. Which naturally he will get with game time. Also he can get better defensively. He seems to want to defend
And our fans wanted this guy
He was 18/19. He’s grown up a lot since then - see everything he did for Sophie Taylor.
From that reddit thread: "Fantastic player but anyone whoever met him on a night out at his time at Coventry will tell you the same, he’s a prize bellend. This whole ‘my shoes are worth more than your outfit’ is a popular line of his."

I've read similar things about him and the people he hangs out with when he first joined Leicester. I guess there's is some truth to it.
I've always thought he was a cnut on the pitch tbh, what he does off it, can be PR or it can be genuine, it doesn't matter much to me.

No need for this overpriced and overrated English player + his pissy attitude.
Thanks but no thanks.
Thanks but no thanks.
Even Maguire?
Just needs to move to a top club
He could be the kind of driven cnut we need or exactly the kind of cnut we don’t.
Needs to stop going out on the piss and getting barred from nightclubs for being a twat for a start
Doesn’t scream “driven professional” to me.
Great player though. Maybe that twattish arrogance helps him as a player, Neymar hasn’t done too badly with it.
