PaulC Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 If you play 3 at the back and 2 wing backs theres no need for Grealish to do much defending then. I don't know if he's ready but the only way we'll find out is by giving him a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 The defensive side of his game is something he will develop as he plays. Right now we should be letting him play his game. Needs to be given a run IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I'd like to see him for 90 minutes. Needs to be able to warm into a Premier League game and be comfortable to express himself, it's difficult to do that with only 15 minutes here and there. Please play him with Gabby out.

PieFacE Posted December 28, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted December 28, 2014 Give him a free role and forget defending. Sanchez, Delph and Cleverley sit so deep anyway they should be able to cover. Really hope the lad starts today. Big day for him if so! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mammoth10 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Give him a free role and forget defending. Sanchez, Delph and Cleverley sit so deep anyway they should be able to cover. Really hope the lad starts today. Big day for him if so! We've got a nice run of 3 games this week where I'd love to see him get a start in all of them, like you say just let him cut loose! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Needs to be starting games, Just like Sanchez and Okore needed a run of games to find there feet. Will only get better and improve with games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I think lambert is doing the right thing in using him sparingly for the time being and building up his prem experience gradually. Too many youngsters have been overhyped and thrown in too soon and it has damaged them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Well he had the opportunity to play him today against one of the poorest sides in the division at home but he didn't How else is he meant to get experience maybe he will have to wait for both Gabby and Nzogbia to get injured before he's finally given a chance Kind of similar with what happened to Okore when Vlaar and Big Phil got injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Grealish has been managed to perfection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Surely has to start against Palace. Excellent when he came on today. If not for this game then when? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelVilla Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Haven't been all that impressed earlier but after today he must at least start in our home games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Really want him to start against Palace. Done more than Weimann & N'Zogbia in first 5 minutes on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 The control from that high pass was exceptional and really Benteke has to do more to get on the end of the cross. Grealish was brilliant. Very impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 He needs to start imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.Bear Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Quality. Touch, runs, dribbling. Final could have been better though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 He needs to start imho. Absolutely, They were terrified of him when he was running at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philosopher Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I am hoping Lambert picks him to start, he deserves it. None of our other 'attacking' players have created anything all season, but witb Gabby coming back in I doubt he will start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Lambert clearly has confidence in him. Sending him out there as third sub with half an hour to go with the team down to ten men says a great deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Lambert clearly has confidence in him.

Khizzy Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 If he's not going to start against Palace then I don't think we'll see him start this season in the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
