Appetite whetted: Grealish wants more

Manchester City’s star man Jack Grealish got on the scoresheet within 60 seconds of his team’s 3-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers. It served as a reminder for the former Aston Villa captain that he should be delivering more goals and assists for Pep Guardiola’s side.”I should be scoring more and getting more assists! I’ll always have people talking about me because of the amount of money I arrived for, but even when I was at Aston Villa, I didn’t score as much as I wanted to. Pep has been brilliant with me, and I must thank him for putting his faith in me today.”##NAJAVA_MECA_6651565##Last season, Grealish was often targetted for not scoring enough goals following his big-money transfer from Villa.
