A number of Manchester City fans have taken to Twitter to comment on an eye-opening statistic about Jack Grealish which highlights his quality.
Despite the disappointing stalemate with Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday, Grealish continues to shine in a team full of attacking stars.
Grealish is a really significant plus point. If you compare him to similar signings – going way back to that great [Roberto] Mancini summer where they brought in Yaya Toure, [Mario] Balotelli, David Silva, James Milner, Riyad Mahrez, [Aleksandar] Kolarov.
Most players like Riyad Mahrez who is now a key player, took a season, a season-and-a-half for them to really click. But Grealish has come in from Villa with a big price tag and a big reputation and he instantly looks like the most dangerous player.
He’s played every minute in the league and it’s a credit to him. Don’t think you’ll do well to pick out a performance [this season] where Grealish didn’t have a good game.
Although it’s fair to say Saturday’s 0-0 draw against Southampton was somewhat disappointing, considering City had scored 16 goals in their three prior home games, Jack Grealish was yet again a bright spark throughout the match.
According to Whoscored, Grealish has made more successful final third passes (134) than any other player in Europe’s top 5 leagues this season.
Here is what some City fans said in response on the social media platform about the Grealish stat:
Won’t play they said, £100m to be on the bench they said. Actually been our best player so far by a mile

Who cares? City need to do better from central positions. Has Grealish played a through ball yet?
