Egoless Grealish admits the obvious: “I haven’t been at my best since joining Man City”

When you join the Premier League champions in a deal worth not less than £100m, the bar is set extremely high, and you’d better put some results on the plate. Despite City’s incredible championship run last season, their top signing, Jack Grealish, was far from perfect.’Arrogant’? ‘Lacks class’? ‘Smug’? Jack Grealish won’t have itThe former Aston Villa leader struggled after being put under the spotlight, and the attention on the England international has only intensified since. Now, he admits there is much space for individual improvements…”I think I deal with pressure well, but I do feel like I can start playing a lot better,” Grealish said at an England press conference ahead of a Nations League double-header against Italy and Germany.##NAJAVA_MECA_6660716####NAJAVA_MECA_6660754##”I probably haven’t been playing at the top of my game since I’ve moved to City, but I think I’ve shown glimpses of it, and over the next two months especially, I’m just going to try to get my head down as much as I can, work so hard and hopefully good things will happen.”I have a great relationship with the manager. I’ve said in so many interviews I have never seen anything like it in the way he thinks and the way he looks at football.”He’s just obsessed with it and you can tell why and see why. I know people might be saying I might be playing a bit different from the way I used to but I think that comes with the players I am playing with as well.##EDITORS_CHOICE##”I was captain at Villa and one of the first names on the teamsheet. When you come to City – and this is no disrespect to Villa – you have players like Kevin [De Bruyne], Phil [Foden], I could go on and on.”We’ve even got a full-back at the moment in Joao Cancelo who I reckon is one of the best wingers in the world. It’s obviously different and it’s difficult at times.”I am playing with so many top players, it was obviously going to change my game a bit. I’m never going to be the exact same player that I was because I am playing for a different club, a different team and a different manager. Hopefully, This is the start of my season and I can just kick on from here, ” concluded Grealish.
