Super Jack, what do you do with him? i'm sorry to say he is a creation of modern day football. When you have kids signed up by clubs 5-6 y old, they don't know anything else but that football bubble.

During this time they are told how brilliant they are, cosseted by coaches and parents . Years ago a friend of mine, had break and was signed by Blackburn.

Even then going back to the 70s, he said these apprentices should be sent out to work for 6months, just for them to appreciate what they have got . You can see with Jack, it is immature attitude.

Over the years you see wasted talent, thrown away because of the same attitude . We have seen ex players reackon they have tried to advise him, if he won't listen then it's a shame. If I was Kevin his dad I'd be kicking his arse and sitting him down for a long chat . I hope he can sort himself out. Onwards & Upwards Villaforever.

Him being sent off on the weekend is an in the pitch incident, he hasn't been caught out on the booze, on holiday, in a hotel, he was sent off. One card for kicking the ball away in the first half (all players do it early on, never usually get carded because its early in the game but it is a bookable offence) watching it back he only got carded because of how far the ball travelled, had there player who it rolled past stopped it there'd be no issue, he didn't want them taking a quick free kick or having the extra yard.

Second card he's stopping someone making a break whilst all our players are up and out of position (same way we conceded second goal against Preston) . Don't understand how you can question his attitude, maybe his intelligence, maybe his memory to remember his on a yellow already, maybe call him thick, but his attitude?

Don't believe everything the papers hold on to. If he don't take that lad out and they score we are all on here saying "why didn't grealish clean him out", he wasn't great Saturday, got the assist but then didn't affect the game enough however had we took our chances no one would of said a word about grealish, red card or not.

1 match ban and then he will be straight back involved against Barnsley in some capacity, I don't rate him as high as some on here do but I call it as I see it and try not to over react, the boy has talent and doesn't seem to have attitude problems anymore, just consistency problems.

Very good point davedean, I am not a Grealish fan to be fair, and that is mainly because of his attitude and demeanour, and his pedestrian “same as” “same as” style, give me a cattle prod.

I don’t know who it was, or where I heard it but a few weeks ago after his goal against Wigan, I heard it mentioned that he had been compared to Ryan Giiggs, That was the best joke I had heard since Tommy Cooper first said "Just Like That".

The route I would take with him now is stand up and be counted, let him know that he has until the end of the season to change his attitude and to start performing or be sold, Red triangle comfort zone ends here.
Give me Sid Cowans any day.

I've become totally exasperated with the lad to be honest. At some point "potential" has to convert to impact. I don't really see it from him
If we are going to have a lightweight luxury player in the team I think I'd rather it was Carles Gil.

It was me that said he could be our Ryan Giggs, meant it as a talented player that many teams would covet, but would stay with 1 club all his career. If anything, the player he most resembles to me in his style is Chris Waddle, on his day a damn fine player, but also a waste of space on his bad days

He is so frustrating, has class moments but a lot of the time he his poor

For me he is not direct enough and slows things down to much, I think the word luxury player comes to mind, would be great if we were smashing teams 3/ 4 nil but were not, when games are tight and physical he is no use.
