Gabriel Agbonlahor says Jack Grealish “glides past players like Iniesta” and described the Aston Villa midfielder as “one of the best” he’s played with in his career. Grealish was linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur over the summer before he signed a long-term deal with Villa, but that doesn’t stop suggestions that his future may lie elsewhere if the Midlands outfit continue to struggle.
Steve Bruce was recently sacked, five months after leading Villa to the Championship playoff final and was replaced by ex-Brentford boss Dean Smith. The club are currently 17th in the division and 11 points off leaders Sheffield United after 15 games.
