I see TalkShite's top sports story is a bitching row between Graham Sounness and Jack Grealish which they generated themselves.

They really seem to be on his back and doing their best to unsettle him.

They’re all over Grealish at the moment - making shit up like he’s asked his agent to find him a new club or he’s had a sip of wine at home one night.

That’s why it pisses me off when City fans get on his back. He gets it from the media 24/7, why give it him through his own fans as well?

Oh dear. Here's the goal I believe pep was referring to. And as rightly said, it was for barca, not Holland.

Haaland's was a far better finish, under much more pressure and the ball was higher.

So shut up crooks you fucking mong.

Is that it? Crooks made it out to be class. Literally just threw his leg at it, unmarked.

"Is that it"

Three words no one wants to hear

I was just going to post something similar. He seems to be the new hate figure on here which i don't get. People say when did he change a game for us- well West Ham away last season for us and RM away he was great when he came on but unfortunately the ending of that game means it's not mentioned.
McCoist said this morning on TS that Pep obviously rates him and that's good enough for him. Souness has a shocking managerial record so I know who I'd rather trust.

Seems to me there always has to be a hate figure for City fans in general, and on here in particular, going back as far as I can remember.
Bowyer, Edgehill and countless others right up to Cancelo and Sterling.
Never have understood it.

I don’t think it’s anything to do with hate. He’s clearly a nice ordinary, well liked bloke trying to play good football, it’s not quite coming off for him at the moment. There’s nothing more the wider media would like than him to fail. It’s an enormous amount of pressure to carry on your shoulders a huge price tag, look what happened to Pogba. You’re on a hiding to nothing. Pep believes in him, I certainly am a fan, I think we should expect more and in time I’m positive he will deliver. Come on Jack sort these media cunts out.

[Dimples]

Souness, a failed manager in English football, talks about what he was taught in the Liverpool boot room, 40 years ago, says that Grealish should be doing the same things.
Pep has won 4 PL titles out of the last 5, is renowned for winning, tactical innovation and improving players. None of which Souness is renowned for. Is Souness saying that Pep should be doing what Liverpool did 40 years ago?
Grealish has been with City one season and has a PL winners medal. I don't see the problem.

The media, all you need is a hard neck and a shit load of arrogance.... you just could not make it up.

With Pogba you could understand it though. The stupid dances on the pitch, constant change of hairstyles all whilst playing shit. Grealish doesn’t do any of that.

The ENGLISH media is giving an ENGLAND international shit for no reason. Mainly absolute virgins writing for pathetic publications like the Athletic.

Grealish isn’t playing shit. When he doesn’t stand out he’s no worse than Mahrez or what Foden has been. Because of the £100m price tag people expect him every match to score five overhead kicks, have six assists and save a penalty. It’s not going to happen.

Lukaku cost the same as him and scored about 2 goals. Barely mentioned because he’s not a City player.

The last sentence is where it's at. For Grealish, read Sterling after coming to us from scouse. Only difference here is it is a WC year and the red tops are trying to manoeuvre both rashford and sancho into the squad at the expense of Grealish I'm happy with that to get him the time off as Southgate won't start him in the big games anyway

Grealish is not worth 100m, 60-70m tops. I'd pick him over Sterling though. Some of his antics brought him unnecessary attention, personally it's all blown out of proportion, just a young chap enjoying himself, unfortunately because of his price tag it always grabs the headlines.

I've listened to talkshite, don't think Souness has an agenda, the media twisted it for clickbait, he just said he's a good player but not great one, I can't disagree at the moment. However he did fall short coming across trying to give Pep advise, probably his jock stubborness kicked in and had no come back when pulled on it.

Going forward, Grealish needs to start expressing himself more, get off the safe zone and take more risks, add few goals and assists to silence the haters. He's not doing anything wrong, just too safe and little predictable. More games like the Wolverhampton one will do him wonders.

I don't think Souness has an agenda either- he's just living in the past. He goes on about the dippers bootroom 40 years ago. Football has evolved and at the forefront of that is Pep who obviously does think he's a great player so basically we have failed managers opinion versus worlds best managers opinion.
Also the if he's worth 100ml argument is irrelevant, it was a release clause and we paid it. The whole country thought he was a great player when they were screaming for him to play at the Euros.

Our good friends at MUTV central aka BBC Sport have two stories in today's gossip telling us Haaland is not here to stay. Is there a big game in town this weekend?
Where's Quinton Fortune and Mark Bosnich when you need "em?
