There have been times during Jack Grealish’s Manchester City career where it looked to some like the wrong player at the wrong club under the wrong manager, but this season and in 2023 particularly Britain’s most expensive player is starting to steal the show.
Since his Manchester derby goal at Old Trafford, Grealish has started every City league game to date. An impressive feat for any player that works under Pep Guardiola, who is known for his carousel of changes between games, particularly in forward positions.
This kind of run is even more important for a player like Grealish, who struggled for consistent game time for the majority of last season, particularly in high-stakes matches with Pep’s lack of trust in Grealish evident.

With his place in the squad as important as ever, it looks like he will significantly improve on last season's tally of minutes, solidifying his impressive change of fortunes.
