“I messaged Matt Targett because I’m close with him from Villa and I said to him ‘can you message him for me and say to him that I apologise, I obviously didn’t mean it’. When I look back on that, that was just one thing that was stupid of me to say it. I shouldn’t have said it. I didn’t realise it was going to go out. I didn’t realise it was a video to go out, I thought it was just private. But even in private I shouldn’t have said it because he’s a fellow professional. I’m actually buzzing for him, I’ve had a lot of stick off the Newcastle fans and rightly so. At the end of the day, they are backing their player which I fully understand. He seems like the most harmless, nice guy, so fair play, I’m buzzing for him.”

Targett merely responded ‘Jack, he’s a lovely kid and he’s harmless and doesn’t really speak a lot of English. He won’t really be bothered.’

Can read the whole thing without the paywall in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/dec/01/jack-grealish-what-a-guy-i-will-show-almiron-the-most-respect-next-time

 

Seems a genuine apology, so fair play. :thup:


Yeah, I like Grealish. Bit of a clown when he was younger and drink driving is a dick move. But I’m far from perfect and have made mistakes in the past. He seems like a good egg now.

Yeah, seems decent. I actually rate Grealish highly and think he gets far too much criticism because of his big transfer fee. 

 

Still no idea why he chose Miggy to talk about mind.

It’s a shitty thing to mention a fellow pro like that. But at the time, I remember thinking his comment was fairly accurate :lol:

He was just trying to be funny, but if you give it out, expect it back when things turn on their head. 

 

Fair play, he's took the shots back, has now apologised and miggy is world class. Everyone is happy.

Apology or not, Grealish is still a cheating diving cunt who couldn’t even lace up Miggy’s boots at the minute. 

I don’t want casual visitors of the Forum thinking we’re all completely biased and blinkered on here (more than is normal with football fans). So in fairness I’m prepared to admit that Grealish’s total ability and output is equal to that of Almiron’s right foot.

Grealish is good, I think it's a shame he went to Man City to be a peripheral part of a machine, nothing wrong with that, great teams need cogs, but when he was the main man as aston villa looked more fun for him and more fun for fans. He is quality but I also think Foden is substantially better than him, as you can see him as being an essential part of City at their best and getting the goals and assists, whereas Grealish is struggling in similar role. I get the feeling Foden is more direct, and better footballing brain knowing where to be, whereas Grealish wants to do everything which can be detrimental in a team like City with a really clear system. In England will work better tbh.
