Any excuse to have another sly dig.
I thought the smily emoji might have helped but it wasn't a sly dig. Just mild disbelief at how excited Footy's getting about a player we haven't even seen in a Villa shirt yet, to the point where he's declaring him better than arguably the best player in our history!!
I meant Footy. He’s always popping at Grealish.
This is an Emi Buendia thread not really here to discuss Grealish.
Anyway they are both high quality players but just Emi is far better at goal shooting and goal scoring. He's inclined to be shooting more and certainly not or slow to get his shot off and plays at a higher tempo more than Grealish who is very unique and can plays at his own pace. A master on the ball is Jack . Off the ball is where JG work is needed by getting into the penalty area when others are given responsibility to have the ball.
So if he continues to occupy a wide forward left position it's imperative for that to develop for good of team as his own game.
At the end of the day we always must remember it's Aston Villa FC not Jack Grealish FC.
The more on par or complimentary players Grealish has is only a good thing so hope his ego can handle it !
EB is also like Jack as a brilliant ball carriers I just see Emi as very effective in his own right and was merely saying comparatively he's a level above any one we have. As the stats say. Hitherto discussion Grealish gets fouled so much the ball carrying stats for Jack are somewhat scewd.
But Emi is of Zaha , Maxim and Adama Traroe dribbling ability and level so that to me suggests at least as a ball carrier we have potentially the best player at this skill in the league. And hopefully the most effective.
The impact on Watkins and Grealish numbers for goals and assists will increase with all 3 of them on the pitch if they work in harmony otherwise it will impact Jack more than Ollie.
