useless Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 He's actually played more minutes than Mahrez, and hasn't played much less than the likes of Foden and De Bruyne, I think they've played around 200 minutes more than him so not much more than two more games worth. So it's not as if he's hardly playing relative to their other top players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 He's on the bench vs Real Madrid in a Champions League semi final We have a big game vs Norwich at the weekend to make sure we don't slide in to a relegation fight 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets all his minutes against lower PL teams or when the game is already won its a short career - he won’t get this time back sitting around on the bench Peps reluctance to trust him will also put an England starting spot back Sad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the one hand, I’m sure he’s happier just being involved in these types of nights which he was miles from at villa. But on the other, the longer this goes and the further down the pecking order he moves you’ve got to imagine that his England career will suffer. pThis time last year there was a genuine debate around whether grealish should be starting over players like foden, Sterling and mount- now you’d be mad to pick him since those three get so much more playing time in the big occasions. so the trade off will start to be his club career vs his England career I suspect. If he carries on with this big part role I. The city squad then he should be dropped from England’s squad. Of course he could have squared the is circle if he’d moved to a different top club. If he was at spurs or utd he’d be starting every week 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 To be fair, whenever I played FIFA Career mode with my world dominating Villa side in the past, I always ended up selling him as he wasn't good enough to start anymore and kept moaning. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without dissing anyone, from the Villa side, were the debates " genuine ", or based around extreme fan boy syndrome. I'll never forget the extreme meltdowns when he wasn't starting, or was subbed. To the levels of none sensical vitriol against Southgate and poor Mason Mount for no valid reason. lol In all honesty, I've always thought the likes of Foden were more effective and would eventually become a better player. Jack is indeed a very good player, but his playing style suits a team where he can do what he wants with the ball. As an actual all round team player... i'm not so sure. He will improve though I reckon with these experiences. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
