One of his best games for us last night.

Has an amazing spirit about him.

[Audrey Horne]

He's our main creator, scores goals and moves us forward. Think he's great

Captain fantastic

[brap2]

Great ball for the goal

[Lazarou II]

Perpetual motion

[TheRam]

I thought he was awful in he first half.

Ran with the ball too much when Barry was in acres of space all the time.

Ran the game in the second half. Needs to back his passing ability more instead of running into trouble.

Pros and cons to this.

It avoids him turning left all the time and looking to find his mate regardless of what else is on.

He decides to hold on to the ball too much as his preferred passing lanes aren't there.

I'm sure he'll work it out but last night was a microcosm of how his game changes for better and worse when Grealish isn't around.

[Bluedylan1]

The advantage of having George in the team is clear, because there's no way Grealish is making that run in behind for the goal.

[StirlingBlue]

Grealish in his current incarnation needs to play in a slower possession based side, he's clearly still very talented but we're not good enough to slowly build attacks and breakdown teams.

George is a better fit

Thats a very good point

Let’s not make out Jack is not a very good player yeah he doesn’t have the pace of George but he is still very good

No, it wasn't a comment on player ability, it was a comment on playing style and the advantage that a young, pacy winger who wants to run in behind gives the team.

It also gives different (better?) passing options for the central midfielders. If Grealish is in the team last night, he's stood out on the left touchline for that free kick, probably receives the ball into feet, and gives it back to a CM or Mykolenko and the build up starts again.

With George playing, he's given KDH the opportunity to find an incisive, line breaking pass with his natural inclination to run in behind. It's the sort of thing Doku might do, and it's why Pep eventually moved on from Grealish in his team. He has loads of qualities, but for a modern wide player too much of Grealish's game is in front of the opposition, not behind them.

Totally agree, gave the ball away so much in the first half, thought he was having a shit game. Fantastic second half earned him his MotM.
