Agree 110% with this. Have done for years. Clammer at Euros was ridiculous. Average player
Capitano798 has been saying this for years. Why has no one been listening?
Maverick is "an unorthodox or independent-minded person." End of story.
Love what Souness said about half time talks. Makes total sense from a Psychological point of view. Lets players reflect for as long as you can after half time, let them workout themselves what they did wrong, this is part of how the brain grows. Then impart what you think, keep it short and never shout, quieter you speak, more people absorb what you say and then just give them a few mins to collect themselves before they go out.
Bizzare hit piece on Grealish. Obviously never watched him week in week out for Villa- he was unbelievably good. His actions against Birmingham when he was attacked was inspiring for younger fans. Jack Grealish at Villa definitely was a maverick/magician.
Truth
Frank Worthington, another maverick. What a player.
@kdee8166......Spot on! Worthington scored more goals the year Bolton were relegated than the Liverpool team that were champions!
Yeah Frank I forgot about him
As was Stan Bowles RIP
Here we go, Grealish is different at city, he fits in tactically to the team like he should do, like Pep wants, like he's paid to do... so what's the problem? Souness said the worst thing pogba did was win the world cup, the pinnacle of his sport... make it make sense. He only praises liverpool players.
Literally praised Zaha in the 1st minute of this 😂😂😂
he salty that grealish in 2 years accomplished the same than liverpools best era in 50 years lol
hardly praised him... and if real madrid should have signed Zaha then I should be england captain@@Capitano798
Pep has coached the flair and devilment out of Grealish but if you win the treble then that’s OK.
@@geraldbutler5484 He hasn't coached it out of him, it's still there he just doesn't use it because the team plays differently. He could of stayed at Villa getting 8-9 goals a season, I know which player I'd rather be
Grealish : run, run, dribble, dribble - fall down........rinse and repeat...... the opposition know that if Grealish gets the ball they have time to reorganise the defence.....Doku is a different player....
I would better play Cole Palmer rather than Grealish.
Dont forget he drinks occasionally too
I think Count Doku looks average as well. Palmer was a stupid sale.
Much better player 💯
@@ronnyron4681
I’d rather play Carlton Palmer than grealish
The same is happening to Doku. It's Peps style that's the issue for players like Grealish
yes brother definetively a great issue when you play for pep and you becoume integral part of a treble historic season, who wants to be in the history books when you can just play the way you love, grow up kid
@@JulioTr95he has a point to be fair, grealish won a treble yet no-one rates him anymore
@JulioTr95 someone get Julio some chocolates as it's that time 😂😂
10000% same what happened with Eto , Neymar to a certain degree.
Neymar never played for pep and eto had one season where he also won a treble 😂
Props to Simon and Graeme for what they said about John Robertson “Now that’s a player” young fans won’t know.
On Man City, Simon talking from a business point of view not actually from a “Fair Play” point of view. Maybe that’s why the Premier League changed the name of the regulations, because it’s certainly not being done fairly. It penalises a club that’s promoted to the Premier league because its owner has tried to invest and keep the club in the league. Basically making the league a closed shop, and the top 4 or 5 an exclusive club. That’s the real reason the ace I’ve eats of Clough and Taylor will never be repeated, it’s no longer possible to rise from modest backgrounds to the top. The top clubs used to have a few of the best players in the country, they now have a team full of the best players in the world.
George Best, Eric Cantona, Zlatan Ibrahimovic etc. These were mavericks and they won things. Maybe not every title but they were legends.
City is just one team. What's stopping every one else from getting these mavericks?
Agree
Grealish has ucl, where is it for Cantona & Ibrahimovic? 😂😂😂
H Redknapp said many years ago, you have to know what you're going to do with the ball before you receive it. Don't see Grealish having that ability.
Good point
He literally pulls about 3 defenders to him every time he gets the ball in the final third. Seriously watch him next time he plays. It'll show you he knows exactly what he's doing and why Pep puts so much trust in him in big games.
Having said all that Doku's arrival is showing us that Grealish does need to work on some of his game.
Then you're blind
John Robertson was some player.
Cantona was a maverick. Presence, flamboyance and a winner
And Grealish only has gi-huge calfs and quite a long mop.
Everyone is a maverick, some are just afraid not to be
buying a foul is the trrm today .id call it something else .lol 😂😂😂love it
Grealish is the new Pogba for Graeme
He hates any popular player who he can't see himself in.
Except the skin complexion.
@@Antonio-hb8rdGrealish isn't good enough but yeah the truth hurts sometimes
I can actually imagine Gream sitting down with pep trying to explain how to be a REAL football manager. This dude litteraly has the opposite view to how football should be played. Gream is basically saying he is far greater than pep and pep is overated and a flop.
@@Jean-tz7ft Good enough for what?
I remember a game where Graeme nearly cut Stan Bowles in half with a waist high tackle with homicidal intentions at Loftus road when Souness was still at Middlesboro...
And actually did nobble Gerry Francis at Loftus Road in the same game and Francis got carried off!
Well said Souness Grealish is a bang average player whose got lucky being in a fantastic team.
A great discussion. Exploring ideas - both working hard at finding meaning in our beautiful game.
A maverick is someone who can do something that special in sport that the normal person can only dream of, my definition
Simon is that guy. Simon = top LAD proper clobber
That's not even close to what the definition is though
I'll get over it fella, just an opinion, don't get ur knickers in a twist @@nichobee
You cant make your own definition of a word lol
Rodney Marsh, Stan Bowles, Laurie Cunningham, Frank Worthington, Chris Waddle, Matt Le Tissier, Glenn Hoddle, George Best were all Mavericks IMHO
If Grealish ever bumps into Souness he should say one thing, 'Boumsong.'
'Benfica' is another. Some strange transfer deals with his mates went on there.
@martynfreeman9638 Or just prove him wrong on the pitch.
George weahs cousin
He wouldn’t dare..
Dean Saunders springs to mind!!
He was an essential part of a treble winning team, Souness didn't achieve that
I got to know David Needham who played in the great Forest team . I asked him who was the best player he'd played with and he said without doubt John Robertson .
To hear Souness say that clubs overspending is an unfair advantage is the highest hypocrisy. As Rangers manager, he overspent so scandalously and illegally that the club was terminated. 😂
Grealish was absolutely brilliant at villa .. his heart isnt with citeh he loved villa and it shows
Its pep wants system players you have on job and you dont divert as villa he was given the freedom
At villa it doesn’t really matter if you lose, there’s no expectations, at city you’re expected to win it all
@@tevildo45 lol 😂 yeah course in fact we have losing parties were we celebrate losing ... you should of seen the one when we got relegated a few years ago ... people were crying...(with happiness obviously)
Lets get it straight. The premier league is the super league of world football. It has the best of everything. Players, managers, fans, DOF etc etc. People this week and last were suggesting the champions league had turned boring. I agree. Due to the fact that the boys have stated. The premier league is just so entertaining with more drama, twist and turns and unpredicitablitiy. Its just so good!
Grealish crying into his treble
Only thing Michael Owen said with sense. Players of his era are by far better footballers than the ones we have today by a country mile
great show
Watch his last 15 games for villa unbeleivable
Then watch his last 15 games for City...
Grealish would have been better off that he stayed at the Villa & helped them achieve now!
i think grealish has improved massively as a player,hes a cog in a well oiled machine,the way he can recieve the ball on the half turn and shield and keep it then move it on,or drop the shoulder and go past someone hes the perfect pep player,when he was at Villa he was relied upon to score and assist or they lost,hes just less selfish now and part of something bigger,one week or year i suppose graeme hypes up billy gilmour just for being regularly able to recieve the pass then find someone in the same jersey,grealish very rarely gives up possesion and when u watch him he regularly comes inside like hes gonna dribble or shoot then plays the reverse pass to a teamate on the run into the box it rarely goes wrong
Have been watching Villa for over 50 years. JG easily one of the most gifted/talented ballers I’ve ever seen. Has been strangled at MC and unable to move freely and use the skills he used at VP in the same way. Have him back tomorrow. Trouble we’ve always had is Aston Villa are not a fashionable club. Had JG been at London club etc there would have been more coverage of him in a positive light. He’s never been a diver - he has a knack of drawing dopey tacklers then nipping the ball away as their foot/leg/body comes in “Thank you very much, I’ll have that foul…..again.” As far as Souness is concerned it’s just lazy punditry combined with my previous comment about Villa not being fashionable. I remember Souness saying (when JG was at Villa) that he thought JG being continuously fouled was due to his ‘lack of vision’. Do me a favour! Since then, Souness probably thinks he has to back up what he said then and is not professional enough to admit he might be wrong. It’s been tough being a Villa fan over the last 50 years - apart from a couple of purple patches we have been average to poor as a football club on and off the pitch, in other words, I’m not being biased just ‘cause JG was a Villian, I’ve simply been able to recognise (unfortunately only on one hand) when Villa have produced a gem. Thank you for reading this far, if you have!
Someone who sees, knows and thinks. How refreshing
Grealish is tailored to teams that play out. He offers the control needed so the game doesn't turn into a ping pong match like Chelsea. Doku is suited to teams that sit back in double banks. It's a tactical issue. He's not there for goals and assists.... looking at the right wingers number at City its not that high either. This narrative is ridiculous.
Not all with eyes want to see that
A Maverick in today's game is somebody who has a really cool haircut. 😂😂
George best was a maverick, Gazza was a maverick, Jack is just slightly less of a warm shandy compared to most footballers in today’s game
Simon & Graeme = Top LADS Proper Clobbers 💯 Facts
boring now mate
Ive supported villa for 27 years and grealish is the best player ive seen... not sure whats happened to him at city
Cantona was a maverick, but he backed it up with goals, assists and success. He was a maverick personality, but a team player.
The difference with Grealish is the lack of end product. He's picked for 'winning' free kicks and penalties
Oxford doctionary: "Maverick- an unorthodox or independent-minded person."
That ends that debate!
"he's the maverick of the fashion scene"
I work in advertising and I’m a big fan of Simon, so want him to succeed and want to watch more content from him - smartest football head around and often the only one worth listening to, so my recommendation for greater appeal is to please change that music upfront to something more upbeat and modern - it’s tough to listen to with black and white imagery in the previews, may not capture a wider/ new audience then your already invested/engaged talk sport listeners🙏
😵💫
Grealish was brilliant for Villa. Almost single-handedly dragged them out of the Championship and then kept them in the EPL. He is suffering from exactly what they discuss re Owen’s opinions. He has been robotised to fit into a system and it stifles his natural game.
Agree. Even Knotts County feels the same about him during that loan spell. I am sad for him as an unfiltered transparant person who lives and plays (used to play) from his heart to be so restricted now
I don't mind a maverick. The issue with Grealish is his lack of professionalism. After winning with City I'm sure a few players had a drink or two. Grealish though went on a bender lasting few days. His teammates even had to hold him to prevent him falling off the celebration bus. He's going to become another Gazza who never realises his full potential.
Well done Simon for taking an unbiased view on Man City…Man city Exacutives have put in money that has generated a whole eastern part of a city..(manchester)…because they ialso invested in good footballers didn’t necessarily mean they would win anything …but yes,the system is out dated ,and if investing in a company (like a coffee shop if it need re-investment) then they can be blamed…As you say 115 allegations is stupid,lets bring it down to serious ones…(4 or 5,on a fraudulent level of investing money from various sources not allowed under the rules)
Grealish seems like a really great person. As a footballer he looks like a midfielder to me. He lacks speed and power to be an attacker.
Villa fan here and Grealish is GREAT at what he does. He can hold the ball high up the wing and rarely loses position and is great at inducing fouls. The rest of the game is not Jacks way of playing.
Alot of people forget, he was only put on the left wing at Villa to fill a vacant position, Bolaise left and Villa had no cover. PREVIOUSLY he was playing a 10 role in midfield and that was his preferred position. It's just shame that the left wing position seems to be the defacto option for him and Pep doesn't allow him to drift in to the centre (like Villa did) but completely understandable with the midfielders at city have.
Mention of John Robertson i recall being at Old Trafford just before the season match Man utd v Notts F|orest in 1980
and game did end 0/0 but Robertson was best player on the park by a country mile .
And as for Graeme Sounness although im a Celtic guy i felt Souness was a top class midfielder , a cracking player
with the never say die attitude and top class footballer for both Liverpool , Rangers and Scotland .
Come on guys, i dont need the ‘highlights’ in the intro, im going to watch it!
Everyone’s doing it, these days, and it does my head in..
£100m to spend every five minutes diving all over the pitch….
Worst signing Pep has ever made - by a country mile..
Doku is waaay better.
Grealish is welcome back at Villa any time.
For how much?
Would love to ask Souness did he think Ronaldinho was a maverick??
Souness always talks sense
He really doesn't.
Talks absolute shite
Foreign coaches and players brought added technical ability to the game. Merging with the winning British spirit and determination.
British spirit and determination of winning the wonderland trophy.
Obsession with mancity is crazy is it the only topic that gives you people numbers
People like you say the same about an obsession with Man Utd,Liverpool and Chelsea.Then moan when they don't talk about them
@@leepatrick9432 that is not true Simon speaks about mancity every opportunity he gets and it's always negative but when it comes to Liverpool ow deary me he gets excited, mind you the same Liverpool that hacked mancity system but No1 speaks about it, it's all love for the red teams
Talk of boxing. Ali was a maverick. He won things. Beckenbauer was a maverick, won things. Maradona was a Maverick and one things. Souness' football thinking is simply antiquated.
so true about zaha
Most overrated player the Premier league has seen
John Robertson was a player👍🏴
Tom cruise and James garner are Mavericks
I would call a maverick as someone with flare and talent who does not conform to the norm.
Exactly
souness with simon sounds so much better rolling off the tongue.
When you say maverick, Ariel Ortega springs to my mind.
Anders D’Alessandro for Porsmouth was a maverick
Graeme mentions Zaha - I was hoping a while back that Arsenal would sign him. Would love to have seen what he could do for us.
What like he did at United? Very overrated player
@@stevendurrant7523I'd like to have seen what he could do in a team as good as we are at the moment - if that's ok with you.
@@stevendurrant7523That's a stupid comment,he only played 4 times for Utd and not even the full 90mins.He was a 20yr old going into a club much bigger than Palace,that had just lost their iconic manager.
10:28 100%. Players like Zidane and Del Piero don’t / can’t exist anymore. They dictated and played the game.
Too much robotics and sideways and safety.
Too much control, not enough chaos.
True. We not seeing players like Ribery, Figo, Ronaldo Nazario, Juninho etc again. Maybe Grealish should have gone to La Liga. Pace would suit him.
You missed the best one. Robbie Edwards
The term maverick was used to refer to individuals who prefer to blaze their own trails.
What does it mean to "blaze their own trails"?
Maverick is someone who is celebrated for breaking the mould. They are succesful. Eg If a goalkeeper keeps running in with the ball way out into the outfield and launching succesful attacks, doing succesful scorpion kicks...thats a maverick. If the other team keep scoring while he did that...thats a liability
25:13 it does make ZERO sense that the players must be English but the coach’s can be from wherever
He’s got more goals than Doku and his bumboy Maddison 😂
Also big games thing he scored at emirates old Trafford and scored against Liverpool in run in 😂
Grealish P14-G3-A1. Doku P15-G2-A5. Maddison P15-G3-A6. Looks like you're the Grealish bum boy
@@leepatrick9432 why you get my comment deleted you puff. More goals than Doku and same as Maddison with less games with grealish being on the bench for how many. Sausage
Finally someone speaking some sense. Treble winner, most disrespected player in the league
@@footnow2845 was on about this in the run in he was motm every other game but proper stat merchants now
Grealish can win dive awards
Cantona has to be the ultimate Maverick
Grealish was great at Villa, he's not a player that excels in a system. He has strengths, dribbling, balance and flair that are uncommon these days. Pep isnt going to play him in the same role that Smith did at Villa - he doesnt need to. Grealish is similar to Gascoigne this doesn't work at city a team full of stars but worked well at Villa were he was capable of taking the game by the scruff off the neck against the weaker teams in the prem, he also has the ability to rise when the pressures on a rare talent, he can win games on his own.
Gascoigne was a maverick. Shearer was a maverick.... Grealish won more than then and tbh if Grealish won the league for Man City against West Ham the season before last. Pep has changed his game he keeps the ball or gets a foul. Let's not forget his input against Liverpool last season one minute saving a goal scoring opportunity next setting up a goal down the other side of the pitch. Maybe talk about some other British players that aren't living up to the hype.
‘Arguably the best team in English football’
Spot on ...yes im scottish,but hated sourness as a celtic fan ......but its FACT was unbelievable as a player .....but Zaha not in same class as grealish
Its ironic how ive just watched this and they talked about Stan Bowles , just found out tonight he's just died . Rest in Peace Stan
.
Maverick players like Tony Currie, Frank Worthington, Stan Bowles, Rodney Marsh had something special. Get you off your seat. Could Jack Grealish be in same class as Michel Platini?
Eric Cantona was the quintessential embodiment of a maverick
What a podcast should be. Always interesting.
So financial fair play should only apply to teams that cant afford to regenerate deprived areas of the country and be able to afford whatever fine is thrown in their direction. Got it 👍. Its sounds exactly the same as the judicial system in every country.
It’s almost as if Souness’ team played differently to Pep’s
Cantona, Ginola, Zlatan, Le Tisser, Gazza were mavericks.
Grealish pogba and souness should be interview, it would get billion views
Grealish is one of the most talented English players in an age when they want players to score 20 a season and run 15 miles. I’d play him on the left for England, Foden and Bellingham Rice and Saka
You cant be serious
How many goals and assists as grealish got
Assists are part of football as are goals for attacking creative players. Barnes, Beardsley, Gerrard, Lampard, Robben, Ozil, Di Maria etc
Jordan is missing is the point mavericks in a individual sport is very different from a maverick in a team especially modern day teams
Paulo Di Canio has to fall into the Maverick candidate, surely?
I don't think every striker wants a cross. I think that's a very Engilish idea of football I'd rather have a Mane, Salah, Vinicius, player. Foden doesn't just take a touch and cross. That's an old antiquated way of playing football. He says mavericks don't win. They win at Madrid.
Ohh thank you for crafting that , Grealish is an average player who enjoys super star status.
If city found guilty, it should be punished like Everton. Point deduction + few years sanctioned not to buy players
But you don’t need the brains of an Archbishop to see that very very clearly they are innocent of these malicious allegations just like last time.
@@robertmclellan3658go educate yourself. Unless you are sarcastic!
@@Rain188 The worlds best club are clearly innocent of these malicious allegations unless you have any proof or evidence of their guilt in which case you should send it to the hapless Premier League because they are are absolutely desperate for some and are trying to find a way out of the mess that they have created for themselves.
@@robertmclellan3658you do know that they were found guilty for FFP once and paid fined, right? UEFA didn’t ban them due to status of limitations which was 3 years.
@@Rain188 That’s incorrect, City had no intention of engaging with the corrupt EUFA kangaroo court and always intended on legal advice to go to CAS who completely exonerated them and the fine was for not cooperating with EUFA. The statue of limitations is SIX years and is the same in the Premier League case where City could have everything prior to 2017 thrown out as time expired however City know just like last time they have the proof and evidence to clear themselves of these malicious allegations. The hapless Premier League is desperately trying to find a way out of the mess that they have created for themselves without losing to much face.
When i saw grealish play for city, he has to play too safe, not encouraged to always take his man on, has an affect on his style. , so hes now more safe and patient and less effective in front of goal. He was best in a free role for a lesser quality team than city. He shouldn't be starting on the left for england with this form. However as a personality and character hes great. Good on him for enjoying the treble success and the work he does with disabled kids.
Off the pitch grealish is a lovely lad, on the pitch i cabt stand watching him, he runs himself into a corner and throws himself on the floor, thats his whole game.
I always thought Mel Gibson was Maverick
24:41 only 5 million 😂😂 you guys are phucking everywhere I go In the UK 😂
City holding Greenlish back. If Greenlish played at Arsenal or Liverpool he would be amazing.
Greenlish at Villa was quality to watch. At City Greenlish has to pass the ball and move.
Doku has freedom to beat players and dribble past players Greenlish don't
A maverick is someone who makes a ‘four act play’ of something
yes, newcastle is state owned, but up to now, newcastle has stuck to the rules so you cant blame being state owned on citys 115 charges
@Simon nothing substantial will come of the City charges, at best some heavy financial fine. What could have reshaped the morals of football would have been seizing the trophies and deducting them points to relegation levels but we all know how that impacted Italian Serie A hence the Premier League won't do it and settle for the financial penalty.
Souness the “ genius” who kept playing Mark Walters 🤣 the guy hasn’t a right to discuss wingers when he played that chump over so many others
You don't no what you are talking about pal Mark Walters was world class there are no wingers in the game like him now end of story pal
@@johngriffin3476 ha ha ha ha ha are you his dad ?
@@alastairbrewster4274Why do you say that?
Who were the 'others'?
Still better than doku
Eric cantona was the ultimate maverick and he did win
Maverick? No. Not even close. Grealish is bang average and the only reason his price was £100m was the England tax. He plays in the same position as Vinicius Jr, Mbappe, Rafael Leao and he's not even close to any of these guys. When it comes to players in the premier league, I can immediately think of 5 that would be ahead of him - Doku (already is), Martinello, Mitoma, Trossard, Diaz. You could probably make an argument for others too (even Rashford but quite frankly he is equally as average). Lose the hype on Grealish, the best thing about him is his hair.
Lol😂 Good point, but is there no British players that are 'class'?
Bellingham and Kane are class. Kyle walker
@@tevildo45 Good point. Especially Bellingham and Kane doing it abroad and in Europe.
Treble winner Grealish 🤫🤫🤫
@@footnow2845 Yes, we know as is Kalvin Phillips. Many players have won big trophies and are not all that.
Grealish could not lace G.Souness' boots. In fact I can't think of a modern player who could (in my opinion).
Stones walker grealish foden palmer lewis ermmm which team do they play for or started with?
This is going to sound like the maddest take, but I'd take a prime Zaha over Doku easily.
