As you say, Dave, Grealish may not be the new George Best, but, willowy and skilful, he does remind me of Brian Little when he first made the Villa team at 17

Good stuff again Dave, though I think Leyton Orient might argue that they had more than one meaningful attack!!  I am really excited about Jack Grealish and think we may have unearthed a real talent.  I just hope he is utilised in what I see as his natural position, attacking midfielder, rather than stuck out on the wing where he is going to be a target for the kind of tactics we saw yesterday.

I think you are confusing them with Athletic Bilbao, Lovejoy.
