Jack Grealish, who recently signed a 4-year deal with the club is very much under Paul Lambert’s plans this season as Villa are set to reject a loan bid from Nottingham Forest.
Grealish has already featured in 5 games for Aston Villa this season and their ought to be more appearances coming up for the young midfielder. Grealish spent last season on loan at Notts County were he scored several goals and ultimately helped Notts County avoid relegation. Now, Championship clubs are interested in bringing Grealish over for a short-term deal.
βI know I have to continue to kick on and push on now,
βI have to keep progressing and I have to strive to be as good a player as I can possibly be.β – Jack Grealish
Aston Villa currently have a staggering 12 players out loan, 3 of those are already playing in the Championship (Herd, Gardner and Bennett). But I feel as though our midfield is a little light, so it’s important to have Grealish available. I reckon he can make an impact this season, but as Roy Keane recently pointed out. Fans can’t get carried away with Grealish, he is yet to start for Villa nor provide a goal or assist for Villa just yet. As Villa continue to slowly bed him into the side, hopefully we’ll see Grealish become a future starting member in our squad.
Sorry but how is 97 minutes in 5 games at not even 20 minutes a game on average is allowing him to progress as a player? Wasn’t on the bench against Everton, He needs to play, send him on loan till January, not like he’s gonna start/play much at Villa as rotating is something Lambert’s not known for, unless forced.
Isn’t it a shame you can’t rotate managers.
Or get rid of them altogether… Well… You can, just… Sadly won’t.
Andrew, Lambert is as thick as a piece of shit mate, not a clue what is required for any player, that why we are in trouble. We’ve had some right dopes as managers and that’s down to bad owners.Villa are in trouble even now. god help us.
what age was lad making debut for chelsea last night 17 last week grealish needs to start
grealish needs to be used sparingly, even thou hes 19 hes underdeveloped a strong breeze looks like it would put him down, the kid last nite was much stronger looking and came on with game effectively over, but saying this grealish needs more game time, nzog does less and has more game time. grealish more game time please, so use him or loan him π
If you followed him last season when on loan at Notts County, you will find that he was kicked form pillar to post every week by League 1 defenders who take no prisoners.
I would much sooner see him in a Villa shirt than shit like Gobby, Andi Wineing and Insomnia.
He IS ready.
Yes play him but not for 90 minutes of every game or you’ll burn him out, Owen and Fowler at Liverpool are best two examples- both finished well before their time.
He needs to get proper game time, play him for 75% of the game – we are not doing anything creative in his absenceβ¦β¦ Oh and sort his daft hair out and pull his socks up !
His hair rocks. Jealous because yr bald??? π
He does look lightweight but he seems strong enough to go 90 minutes a game which he should against QPR. Drop N’Zogbia as he does nothing. He’ll be our player that gets kicked/hassled the most but that’s the price you pay to be the quick, really talented creative player.
anybody in place of nzog would be a improvement, a WINGER thats a wasted talent, there are players in most premier teams, that have less talent than nzog, but they produced week in and out and most importantly are TEAM players,
grealish i av no doubts is ready now on skill, my concerns is putting too much on his slender frame, but needs are must, who else can play this role, weimann ?? grealish ?? can’t you have weimann for the hour and then bring on grealish
I’d start both. Richardson is useless too. And while I agree, just look at Sterling, he’s played every game (I believe that’s what the commentators said tonight anyways) since December, so I don’t see why Grealish can’t play a full 90 minutes, or 70-80 even.
Get him on the pitch. How are we going to blood him sitting on the bench?He’s been on loan enough.
Agreed he needs to play but Keane is right in that we (the fans) should not place too much expectation on his shoulders. I know about references to Barkley, Sterling and Chelsea teenagers et al but they are playing in good teams with top quality players around them – need I say more?
I’d hardly say anyone at Everton in the AM position is better than Barkley, nor has anyone played better than Sterling bar Sturridge and so far Lallana at Pool, so there’s Chelsea with the top quality players around them. Could argue then why can’t Grealish get into a team with no top quality players? Gotta be better than N’Zogbia and Richardson? Or Gabby and Weimann out wide in no their favored positions? I agree our expectations shouldn’t be that high for him at 19 and no real top flight experience, but the kid needs to be treated better, IE: being played.
At least I know a Preston fan has been very impressed with Robinson and was happy they kept him on loan till January. He’s been played out wide and seems to be doing well at it.
Unfortunately Drennan’s failed at Portsmouth, so I doubt he’ll be one that really makes it here.
No just get on that plane and enjoy. Save trip. Hitchen 60 .:-)
Safe π
Hi Bill 6.35am here – is it too early for the first run of the day -:)
RUM – don’t want to be doing any running π
Pissed already I see, Hitchen have a look and see if you can find some decent footballers over there, is it hot? put the cream on and watch your pockets.:-)
Pretty warm but it’s bl***y raining and the mossies are out in force π and I’ll keep my eye open for the next Dwight Yorke !
Have a look on the beach that’s where Doug found one, we need 6 .:-)
π
Hitchens watch how much jerk chicken you eat mate it’s not known as the Windies for nothing. π
Hi Giddy – it’s absolutely pi***ng down here – first rain for ages apparantly! Bit like supporting the Villa – hope for better tomorrow π
You’ll be dry in the bar mate that’s the main thing,get it down yer enjoy Hitchens have a treble for me. π
Will do mate; on the Banks beer at pres (another location clue!) and it’s just as wet in the bar – thank heavens π
Dudley????
B***er – knew you’d find me out mate π
Sandals Lower Gornal?
What’s the entertainment tonight? Dog fighting or is it Badger baiting evening? Bostin yo cor beat it.
BWS wearing sandals – a good rum shop I would think. Banks the beer of the Caribean now available at your local Tescos – get in our kid π
4000 miles to drink a pint of Bank’s, what are us Brits like?
Barbados mate? Just googled local Caribbean beers and there’s a Banks Barbados Brewery. (F**k me I sound like a stalker!)
Commitment mate; that’s what makes Villans special ……… Or should that read deluded π with that I’m back to the bar.
I don’t see why grealish shouldn’t start, it has to happen sometime so why not qpr and look at berahino for West Brom he played a lot last year, wasn’t great but lots of potential and now this year he is much better from the experience last year.
But its pointless playing him in a lambert system where his role will be essentially a 2nd left back, he needs to be high up the pitch keepin their defenders busy.
Lambert claimed Richardson and Cleverley were creative players. He doesn’t quite understand what a creative player is.
What’s up with the postings lads ? Think your all in the west indies with Hitchen, or pissed off’ with the Villa.Oohah give us some stick mate your the only one to motivate us.
Haha not pissed off about the Villa at all, as I expect very little with one of the worst manager’s I’ve ever seen I charge. However it’s still to the point he believes Richardson and Cleverley are creative, Cleverley’s never been creative and Richardson’s never been “that good”. We have a couple players who can do anything with the ball creatively. Grealish if given a chance, Weimann at times, Cole on his day, Bacuna if given the chance and N’Zogbia of 5 years ago. That’s about the extent of our creativity team. 1 youth player that doesn’t play, 1 player out of position, one that doesn’t play and is aging/injury prone, one that doesn’t play nor plays in his correct position and one that hasn’t had a good game in a Villa kit who people thought was good because he liked running at players and usually failed 99% of the time.
Andrew, cannot fault what you’ve said, I’m watching Westham game against Man City, that manager was close to being sacked, West Ham had faith in their man because he had experience, Lambert is a poor excuse of a manager, I hope Villa gets a result as he’s had his time at Villa Park.
Yep look at west ham and saints and look at us ffs. Lamberk is in his 3rd season and already we are in a 6 pointer relegation match with QPR like we were 2 seasons ago.
Allardyce definitely knows what he’s doing, amazing what happens when he’s backed correctly (que Lambert hasn’t been). Bar the first game against Spurs, they’ve scored in every game so far and that includes Liverpool, United and just beating City now. Best thing is their highest goal scorer never played above the 2nd division in France. He’s using Song to the best of his ability currently, Downing looks confident and Valencia looks an incredible signing. Cresswell has definitely surprised me in how good he is and the one thing Allardyce has gotten is that stability in the team. The team knows how to defend, but they’re not afraid to attack, we can only do either 1 of the 2, never together in 1 game.
Yep I want Richard Dunne back lol
Oohah I’ll never argue with you again, been right for two years, fuck giving him another year,he’s a parks manager, sorry I’ve seen better parks football managers I was one. In the Festival league.
Lol glad someone else can see the light Bill. How many more chances is this clown going to get ffs.
Clowns are funny I can assure you he don’t make me laff mate. π
Lol true but he makes the blue noses laugh I guess. I’m still in shock he go an extended contract that is just wring on so many levels
I’m also baffled mate I though it was a whindup,I think it was just after the orient game or there abouts.I hope it’s not a costly decision this season QPR will really be a bench mark I feel & I ain’t looking forward to Monday nite one bit.
Ps I also think we’ll be a bench mark for QPR aswell they lose redcrapp out the door.
We are supposed to be a pacy counter attacking team. QPR have the oldest and slowest CB in Dunne. If we can’t get behind their defence and cause problems then……..? Whether we can actually hit the target is a completely different debate!
If Dunne starts, doesn’t always, but then you can claim Ferdinand’s just as old and slow. Caulker’s one of the most overrated CB’s around, Traore’s mediocre. Isla and Vargas together slightly scare me but other than that, we should be able to control the game, not solely counter attack them.
Hi Hitchen how’s the weather? Nice and sunny here, but a bit gloomy on the fans front, Westham just beaten Man city, ho happy days.
Bill p look out your window mate see if your neighbours doing cartwheels.
Giddy I’ve told him shut the fuck up or I’ll kick his cat, he’s textin me like hell.
LOL what do you think I’ll do to my neighbours????
We’ve got plentifuls of pace the problem is when a round things involved.
SCUM getting slaughtered π I raise a glass to that amen.
Sorry Giddy , its my city, if I have a football team that was making a monkey out my city I’d dig the place up and make a community piss corner, be cause it humiliation to our city.
Isn’t the stye already a piss corner mate?????
To true mate, 8 pissing none, when was the last midland team to do that.??? Fuck me it was us….? π
Yes mate we’re certainly a landmark (Birmingham) when it comes to football they can’t wait to play us.
Friends just arrived to stay with us – sadly he’s a bluenose but even I feel for him. I’ll take him out on a run crawl to sort him out. Bit wet here Bill but then I haven’t looked outside from the bar yet! π
RUM crawl even -:)
