It would be good if he got a Nigel pearson style manager; who'd take none of his crap. Keep him grounded
Yeah, like he kept his son grounded and disciplined. Wonder what went wrong there.

Roberto Di Matteo has confirmed an internal investigation with Jack Grealish (Sky).

Apparently he was out partying till 7:45am after the 0-0 draw on the weekend, with Police needing to be called:lol:

To think he was even touted as a future England star at one point.

A source said the midfielder held an unruly bash that featured balloons containing nitrous oxide, known as hippy crack.

Sources close to Grealish, who had to apologise to then Villa manager Tim Sherwood in 2015 after pictures emerged of him inhaling from balloons, admit the balloons were present at the party but they deny that Grealish inhaled from them.

One source said: 'The noise was incredible. There were huge numbers of people inside the room and it was lawless. The other guests had no chance of getting any sleep.'

So he switched to Belgium now? Sounds about right for the wee snake

What the feck is it with footballers and balloons full of nitrous? Is it because it's the only drug they can do that won't show up in a piss test? Or are all kids their age doing it now? Used to be something that was only done by Grateful Dead fans or people who ran out of better drugs to take.

It's very much a 'first lads holiday' sort of thing as you can get one for under a quid. As you say it's undetectable, too.

Let's not have a go at nitrous - nothing wrong with a good old blast of the hippie crack. Nice little short-lived trip you get off a balloon of that stuff.

Isn't it an 18 year old thing to do in Zante or Malia.

Imagine a midfield 3 of Grealish-Barton-Morrison :lol:

Apparently Grealish grew up considering himself to be Irish. He was even a member of a GAA club in Birmingham and would regularly turn up in the Irish jersey and support the Irish national team. His agent, apparently, agitated him to declare for England as he would have better commercial opportunities as a "brand". The same agent who wanted Gareth Bale to declare himself for England.

I feel for all the lads who lost their places whilst countless players played for Northern Irish youth teams only to feck off to the Irish Republic.

Ah well....

This is slightly different as many in the Nationalist community don't consider themselves to be Northern Irish, they see themselves as Irish and openly do so in terms of their loyalties, however they are not able to play for the Republic of Ireland at youth level and can only make the switch as adults. No doubt causing no end of bad blood for the association that trained them and not to mention financially invested in their development. Unless Republic of Ireland coaches are allowed to pick Nationalists from the north at youth level then this problem is going to continue, of course if they were allowed to pick youth players from Northern Ireland it would create another problem for lots of people.

He just seems really thick whenever he's interviewed.

Nice lad, but thick as pudding.
He is a bit thick if he's not learning from his mistakes. He needs to sort it out or he'll go down the Morrison route.

Shocking today. One of the stupidest red cards I've ever seen, first yellow card was for kicking the ball away ffs, and while Villa were on top too. Threw the game away for them.

Get the feeling he'd be shot within five minutes if he tried to hang with Morrison or his like.

Villa are not the ideal club for a young flair player to be coming though at presently. He's better than a mid table Championship side.
No he's not. He could be if he worked hard enough but I don't think he will.
