Pep Guardiola has emphasised that Manchester City superstar Jack Grealish has been in brilliant touch lately.
Ahead of City’s upcoming clash against Chelsea (via HaytersTV’s official YouTube channel), the Catalan tactician gave his two cents on the 28-year-old’s recent form.
Pep Guardiola says ‘aggressive’ Jack Grealish has been in cracking form for Manchester City recently
Due to Jeremy Doku’s terrific start to life at the Etihad Stadium, even Chris Sutton admitted that the Englishman could find it a challenge to lock down the left-wing spot for his side this season.
Branded as ‘phenomenal’ by Gillingham boss Stephen Clemence, the former Aston Villa captain’s performances have seemingly divided opinion since signing for City in 2021.
However, Pep Guardiola has said that especially recently, there is no question that Jack Grealish has been in fine form.
“It’s his game so like physical contact, he’s aggressive and we are really pleased; last games, he’s playing really, really good”, Guardiola said in his latest press conference, as shared by HaytersTV.
“Today [Saturday], he make an incredible training session, the mentality is there and he’s so important for us, Jack.”
Jack Grealish has been brilliant in his last three starts
Both home and away against Young Boys as well as in the Manchester Derby, Jack Grealish has delivered for Pep Guardiola and Co. from the off.
The two-time Premier League winner has emerged as a major threat in the final third, creating chances for fun and stitching Manchester City’s attack together in sublime fashion.
Jack Grealish seems to have perfectly struck the balance between when to retain possession and when to be more proactive in and around the penalty area, as was the case during the second half of last season.
As long as Grealish maintains such high standards going forward, he is set to have yet another sensational individual campaign.
