Man City fans all say same thing about Jack Grealish after Everton win vs Man United
Manchester City fans have been quick to discuss Jack Grealish’s performance for Everton after their latest victory.
The Toffees snatched a 1-0 victory away at Manchester United on Monday night, despite being reduced to 10 men in just the 13th minute.
Grealish has been integral for Everton in the early stages of his season-long loan spell, and he worked tirelessly to help protect the lead for his team at Old Trafford.
David Moyes has been full of praise for the impact that the England international has made since his arrival in the summer, and that hasn’t gone unnoticed among supporters of his parent club.
Man City fans hail ‘fantastic’ Grealish display vs Man United
Grealish’s performances for Everton in the early stages of the season have prompted suggestions that he could be in line for a return to the England setup under Thomas Tuchel.
The 30-year-old already has five goal contributions to his name this term and was named as the Premier League’s Player of the Month back in August, but it was his defensive responsibility that caught the eye this time around.
The winger won five duels against Manchester United, while also completing seven defensive contributions and playing a vital role in drawing fouls to relieve the pressure on his team.
Grealish’s displays have had Everton fans gushing at times since his arrival, and now it is the turn of the Manchester City fanbase to be wowed by their loan star.
One supporter branded his overall display as “fantastic” on X, while he also received plenty of praise for helping his team to victory over United.
There were even calls from some supporters for City to keep hold of Grealish at the end of his loan spell, with Everton currently holding the option to buy him for £50million.
Moyes and Co. will surely have to give serious consideration towards that option if he continues to show the same level of influence throughout the campaign.
Grealish leads entire Premier League for this key stat
Grealish hasn’t notched an assist for Everton since the end of August, but his creative performances in the opening month of the campaign were so strong that he still finds himself among the Premier League’s elite in that aspect.
| Player | Assists | xA |
| Jack Grealish | 4 | 2.5 |
| Yankuba Minteh | 4 | 1.8 |
| Quilindschy Hartman | 4 | 1.4 |
| Mohammed Kudus | 4 | 1.3 |
| Jeremy Doku | 3 | 2.7 |
The ex-Aston Villa star’s tally of four assists so far this term is the joint-highest of anybody in the entire division, and the quality of delivery that he has provided is outlined even further by the fact that his tally of four has come from an xA total of just 2.5.
The wideman also ranks among the best in the league when it comes to big chances created, and if Everton had a more clinical striker within their ranks, then his creative stats would arguably look even better.
Grealish’s arrival on Merseyside has been a breath of fresh air so far, and everyone at Everton will surely be desperate to turn his stay into a permanent one if they get the chance.
