Re: Jack Grealish
As per you've strayed from the point I'm making, the quantity of fast players aren't what make a good team. Pace isn't the main thing any squad requires. City don't rely on it, neither do Arsenal or even them dickheads across the park. Having some pace gives a different option but it isn't a requirement to win games. Would much rather we built a footballing side.
I don't have an aversion to pace, one of my favourite players was Kancheslskis who was fucking rapid. But give me a Grealish on one side and a Ndiaye on the other and we are flying. Get ballers around that. Look at Dewsburys Halls movement, previously players like Osman, Rodriguez, Barry. Played the game in their heads as much as on the pitch.

Re: Jack Grealish
But but but, why can’t we just get rapid ballers who can do it all
if PSG can then we must be able to pick at least one up right, we’re the next best option surely
Re: Jack Grealish
We do play in the strongest fastest league on the planet and have had 2mph max speed Dwight McNeil on the wing for the last 1 billion years (90 mins every single game)

Re: Jack Grealish
We are probably the next fastest after PSG. 2nd in the most right back category too. Not sure why we are complaining reallyCereal Killer wrote: ↑Wed Apr 29, 2026 9:15 pm But but but, why can’t we just get rapid ballers who can do it allif PSG can then we must be able to pick at least one up right, we’re the next best option surely
I mean come on youre being incredibly disingenuous. Weve been moaning at our chronic lack of pace throughout the team for years now. We signed 2 wingers in the summer. 1 for our second largest fee ever and 1 on loan for 200k a week. Both incredibly slow for wingers. Theres something gone wrong there just in terms of common sense
We dont gave to be PSG to think having some pace in the team might be an idea
Re: Jack Grealish
The addition of Grealish will likely coincide with the moving on of McNeil.777Kidnappings wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2026 11:31 am Which 2 are the slow 1s? Dibling grealish Ndiaye mcneii? Why would we sign more slow 1s before we address the chronic lack of pace. We cant just keep adding players that dont directly address our problems because hopefully we'll sign some that do
Neither of them are quick but they are light years apart in terms of quality.
Immediate upgrade secured. Now move on to other areas to address.
