Jack Grealish opens up on Man City struggles under Pep Guardiola

Jack Grealish has talked about his difficulties trying to top his brilliant 2022–2023 season with Manchester City as well as Pep Guardiola’s on-field dressing down following their match against Arsenal.

Grealish, a 28-year-old former captain of Aston Villa, hasn’t been able to match his treble-winning season at City in terms of performance.

The England international has only started nine Premier League games this season due to injuries and illness issues.

Things got heated between the Man City player and manager Guardiola after the Spaniard was seen giving Grealish an on field-dressing down following their draw against Arsenal.

That gave fire to speculation about the Man City player not having a future at the Etihad Stadium, however, the England international started the next match and starred in the club’s 4-2 win against Crystal Palace.

Speaking to The Daily Mail, Grealish said:

“Guardiola? Playing for this manager the only ever person who has been able to go and do what they want in a Pep team is [Lionel] Messi, which is fair enough. You can’t knock what the manager has done, he’s an incredible manager, a great guy with a really good heart as well.

“At times this season, I have struggled a little bit with myself and he’s been there for me all the time. I owe him a lot. He’s a great person and the best manager to ever exist.
