If a winger can adds goals to his game Manchester City become even more dangerous

Jack Grealish was in fine form for England in their 3-1 UEFA Nations League win over Finland. The Manchester City winger played well and got himself on the score sheet during England’s win. Looking forward it would make Pep Guardiola’s side infinitely more dangerous if Grealish could bring his scoring touch for England back to Manchester City.

There is no doubt that Jack Grealish plays a crucial role for the world champions. That cannot be disputed. The statistics for the goals and assists he provides for Manchester City don’t tell the full story. Often Grealish is the player who links up City’s attacking play. More often than not he is the player who provides the ball for others to prosper. His display during City’s 3-1 over West Ham highlights this fact. That has been the story of his time at the world champions. But if he could score more goals for Manchester City it would make them a more dangerous proposition.

If the Manchester City winger can score more often City become a harder team to stop for their opponents. It would make the world champions a harder team to stop going forward. As Manchester City face teams who defend deep the more players who can provide goals will help Pep Guardiola’s side prosper. The challenge isn’t just there for Jack Grealish but it is an area of his game that he can improve.

Jack Grealish is and has been a fine contributor to Manchester City’s success. He will continue to be based on his quality as a player. But if he added goals to his game for his club he’d be a more dangerous player and make Manchester City a more dangerous team.
