Michael Owen worries Jack Grealish is 'not suited to Pep Guardiola's style of football' after another subdued performance against Club Brugge...while Rio Ferdinand insists the £100m star simply needs 'time to learn the Man City way'

Michael Owen says he is a 'huge fan' of Jack Grealish but worries the £100million signing does not suit the style of football Manchester City play.

Grealish produced another subdued performance during Manchester City's 4-1 Champions League victory over Club Brugge on Wednesday night and many have since questioned his compatibility with Pep Guardiola's side.

Owen admits that Grealish is not 'perfectly suited' to the Citizen's as he focused on winning free-kicks in the final third. However, Rio Ferdinand believes the former Aston Villa captain will flourish under Guardiola after learning the 'City way'.
