Manchester City forward, Jack Grealish has come out to open up regarding his own mental struggles this season. He recently thanked Pep Guardiola for all his help, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he has really struggled a little bit with himself this season, and he personally found the campaign difficult after the highs of last year.
Jack added that he believes he owes Pep Guardiola a lot for all he has done for him and his career.
His words, “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.
It’s been a difficult season for me personally after the highs of last year. I spoke to the manager a lot and he’s been so good with me. I owe him a little bit and want to repay him now with my performances and the team as well. I speak to my friends in the [dressing room] every day, I know how important I am to the team. I speak to the manager and at the back end of last season you’ve seen how much the manager played me.”
WOW.
