A year ago, Jack Grealish was deemed a £100million flop. Now, he is a key part of an English core that is driving Manchester City towards a historic Treble - a feat only achieved once before by their great rivals Manchester United.
It has been some turnaround for the Aston Villa academy product who - while he picked up a Premier League title in his debut season at the Etihad - admitted several tough lessons were learned.
Grealish scored just three league goals, a tally he has comfortably surpassed this campaign with five goals and seven assists in just 28 games as City romped home to their fifth title in six years.
