I have no opinion on Maddison's non-football activities, but I expect that's the sort of criticism that supporters of many clubs would level at Grealish.


He always comes across very self assured ,   but has he been in that much trouble?

Can you successfully play both Grealish and Sterling in the same team? He seemed to take-up some of the positions Jack wanted to when they were both on the pitch.

You'd need a half decent Manager/Coach to make it work. For me he's more an updated version of Julian Joachin, fast, an eye for goal and can find a cul-de-sac at 100 yards.

Nor do I, but whatever Grealish has done didn't cost us a place in the top four. It could be argued that Maddison's Covid party did for Leicester.

For me, Sterling’s lack of awareness for a pass or his colleagues positioning is his downfall, too often he conspires to break a move down simply by not picking a simple pass. This, together with his knack of running out of pitch before crossing makes for a very frustrating player.

Sterling reminds me of Theo Walcott. Same lack of composure or vision.

He’s a much better player than Walcott ever was for me.

Wasn't his agent taking in a trip to Ajax of Amsterdam followed by first class service on the Eurostar to St Pancras, onto New Street and finally, the fanciest carriage they can find to Witton?

Stopping off for a bellybuster of a breakfast at Mr Egg.

Ajax don't stand a chance.

Golovin being linked from Monaco for about 20m.

Wouldn't be a bad plan B at all if Smith Rowe interest has stalled.

He is

He is Walcott who has then been coached by someone very good and continued to learn. Far more in his armoury than Walcott

His decision making is often rubbish but the run and pass for 1st goal v Ukraine was equisite play

Just frustrating because end product is too often not there but exciting player to watch.

I thought Golovin was a female tennis player

I see he played in all 3 of Russia’s games but can’t say I recall him doing anything.  YouTube videos seem impressive as usual but who knows!

Assumed he was French. If he's Russian get him in, we've never had one of them!

But all the Italians did was to station 2 defenders about 10 yards in front of him and wait for him to run into them - which he did repeatedly

every time there was space to the right to run or pass to, he turned left and ended the attack. Brainless

Sterlings OK, but that’s about it for me. Composure (No) Dribbling (Yes) Crossing (not seen much evidence of this) Shooting (middling at best) Passing (he’s a toy story seagull). He has a knack of finding space and being in the right place at the right time (then ruining it by going down a culdesac)… I’m sure there’s better out there somewhere for the price he would cost?
