Manchester City forward, Jack Grealish has come out to say that he was angry at being overlooked for England’s squad for this summer’s Euro 2024. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he never agreed with Southgate’s decision to drop him from the squad because he felt he could have been the player to make the England team more balanced.
Grealish added that his experience as a trophy winner would have come in handy in Germany as well.
His words, “I’ll be honest with you – I didn’t really agree with it.
You need a bit of a balance in every position on the pitch and I class myself [as] quite an experienced player now. I have won a lot of stuff now so, you asked me should I have gone, yes, I still think I should have, but obviously it wasn’t meant to be.”
On if he has a point to prove to the new manager, “Of course, I wanted to come here and train well and play well. I thank the manager Lee Carsley for giving me that chance and having that trust in me. It obviously really meant a lot, I think throughout my career when I have played under managers who have shown trust in me and communicated with me the way he has the last two camps, it really helps me. It makes me feel that the manager really does rate me and I can’t speak highly enough of him since I have been here.”
WOW.
