Grealish doesn’t dive?!?! Christ, he’s incessant. He even dived when that Brum fan slapped him. If, when a player goes down, he gets both feet off the ground at the same time; he’s diving.
I suspect that you’re under 30, FFB, possibly nearer 20. Neither Grealish nor Hazard, have never been subject to a proper foul in their careers. In a contact sport, those two twats feel the slightest contact and go down.
I’ve seen worse players, get hit with more robust challenges and stay on their feet. Have a look on YouTube for Strachan v. Uruguay.
He has all the skill and vision to be a great player and yet relies upon shithousery. Bielsa once said something along the lines of ‘think about what kind of football we are passing on to the next generation’. Grealish in totality doesn’t represent something I’d want to pass on to the next generation and be seen as acceptable.
I don’t get how anyone can slag him off
A fan literally ran on the pitch and twatted him he then didn’t complain got up and scored the winner in a local derby ?
I’d like that to be the character one of our players had
No he doesn’t dive he hasn’t been booked once in his entire career for diving he doesn’t dive
Winning fouls is different to diving

Duffy isn't Champions league standard either, so his goalscoring record is a good indicator. If you're an attacking midfielder player in a top side you have to weigh in with goals. The higher up you go the harder they are to come by. The player he's being linked with replacing is Erikson at Spurs who has 49 in 206 games.Brooks has 7 in 30 at a younger age, at a higher level. At the highest level free kicks have to have a high degree of success or you get somebody else to take them. I would point his lack of real speed, strength, shooting ability and positional awareness as other weaknesses in his game.There's a reason he's where he is at his age.Nobody has blown Villa's house down for him. Unless he's a late developer with outstanding potential and everybody is missing something?

You're making the free-kick point again, but does Grealish genuinely take them? You've already said he takes penalties, which wasn't right. In my mind, I can't remember Grealish being a big free-kick taker. So it's potentially a moot point.
The goalscoring point overall is fair. He probably does need to improve on that. But he's scored a goal every five games this season. Compared with Eriksen's record of a goal every four games, it's not miles off. Bear in mind though, I'm not saying Grealish is a Champs League standard player necessarily. In my mind, I see him as a player who can play for a side in that mid-table range (Leicester, Wolves, Everton, you know the ones I mean) and make an impact.
They could talk about how long the losers will last next season before they go into financial meltdown?Ye gods, what a pity Leeds didn't make it two Yorkshire teams up top...all we're left with is Frank Lampard's Derby County vs John Terry's Aston Villa as a big Wembley wankathon...whatever will the commentators find to talk about? I can hardly fucking wait...
Cant undetstand what all the fuss is about him tbh. Hes had a very competitive budget to get Leeds up and has failed. Simple as.
The majority of our fanbase (if this forum is anything to go on) thought we got top money for Brooks
I'm looking at his overall career, not just this season. I think Eriksen would get a lot more than a goal every four games at Championship level and below. It's a big step up or down.
I'm talking about his career too. I genuinely don't know. Maybe you're right.
But yes, you're spot on with Eriksen. He definitely would score more at this level. But I don't think Jack Grealish is Christian Eriksen.
Wow! That just shows how good our defence was in that period compared to everyone else. Added to the fact we were second top scorers too.For completeness, here's the league table for the second half of the season (ignoring Birmingham's points deduction). Actual finishing positions on the right.

I don't t get the Grealish hate tbh. My best pal is a villa fan and he says he just gets fouled constantly. I have to agree. Yes he hits the deck easy bit probably to avoid getting injured. Imagine getting crunched every 5 mins you'd want to avoid injury too. He's good enough for spurs.
Perhaps you think that other cowardly cheating sack of shit Bamford just spends 90minutes getting elbowed in the face.
Lets be honest - they are both odious - but at least Grealish also has the game to back up his attitude. Bamford doesn`t.
Won`t happen, but I'd snap your arm off if offered Grealish - he'd be incredible in the Duffy role...
Villa fan defending own cheating diving twat of a player shocker.

I wish to fuck he did.
No Bamford is a cunt I agree.
Grealish is a good player and I assume he just gets sick of being fouled all the time. Don't really give a toss he's not our player but that's my 2c.

Wouldn’t you chop him down with that clever twat haircut and his socks rolled down like TC if you were playing against him?I don't t get the Grealish hate tbh.

indeed .. hubris is a bad thingBy putting up pictures of their fans in tears, or a link to the game, or a post match interview with Jack Duckworth.
I’m sure nobody will do that...
