Jack Grealish has been fined by Paul Lambert for sending a tweet that reflected his discontent in the amount of playing time he has seen this season. The tweet in question:
Lambert wasn’t pleased with Grealish’s tweet and has since held a meeting with the young winger telling him to concentrate on his football. The tweet has since been deleted. Grealish did recently sign a new four-year deal in October but has failed to start a Premier League game since. Grealish has been limited to two starts, both in Cup games.
Last season Grealish made 38 appearances for Notts County scoring 5 goals while on loan. There has been talk of Grealish leaving Villa for a loan move to the Championship in January, but with the Sinclair transfer off, it’s seems likely that Grealish will end up staying in order to give Villa more options out wide.
I think he should stay off tweeting, that’s what I think,’ said Lambert. ‘I wasn’t happy. I told him to concentrate on football. I don’t think anybody needs to know he’s boiling an egg, you know. Personally nobody’s asked me for Jack (on loan).’
I’m still shocked that Grealish is yet to start a game for Villa. Villa’s attacking threat has been absolutely embarrassing, yet Lambert isn’t willing to give one of your youth players a chance in the first team?! Still, if Lambert isn’t going to start Grealish, at least allow Grealish to go to a Championship team to develop and get some game time under his belt. Hopefully Grealish will start in the FA Cup game against Bournemouth, but he is currently a doubt as he is currently fighting a virus.
What’s wrong about speaking the truth????? FUCK knows what’s offensive about his tweet,fucking pathetic Lambert should be more concerned with what’s going on on the field not the web that’s more offensive to the fans than his comment.get your fucking head out your butt 4eyes.
If the young lad is fined then lambert should have over 2 years worth of fines for his post match comments. Simple as
Ya lambert this is exactly you! One of our best young prospects having his confidence destroyed by a man who would prefer him to sit back and defend or just sit on the bench and watch weimann, gabby, cleverly, nzogbia, richardson play shit week in week out and still hav no chance to start a game! That’s great management lambert because it would be a terrible idea to give him a few games and see what he can really do, I mean he definitely couldn’t be better than players who have created or scored fuck all this season or even for the last 3 seasons! No no a fine and a telling off that’s how u motivate a young player…
And I know people say he has done nothing in the 1st team yet but how can he when he comes into games where we are doing shit anyway and only had 10 or 20 mins to do anything? its a very short time for any player never mind a young player to change the whole teams fount unexpected and mentality.
He should start at least 3 games in a row and if he is ineffective then take him off with 30 mins to go at least then he can develop and im prove and we can see if he has what it takes or not!
There is nothing wrong with Grealish Tweet. All he is saying happy to be playing again. Find 5K for that. Lambert lost the plot.
Can’t Lambert get fined for being a SHITE manager???????
Grealish told the truth on the verge of a loan move cos Lambert couldn’t be arsed to pick him even though his bottom kissers are playing shit.He probably can’t believe he isn’t making the squad.
Is Lambert fining all the players who earnt our club a £60k fine.
This bloke is an embarrassment to the football and our great club.
One of the main concerns about the protest last week was that it wasn’t going to support the players.
Well i think we should stand up FOR OUR players not Lamberts cheap arse licking imports.
Since Lambert has arrived our youth set up has gone from one of the best to one of the worst. The young players used to feel they may ha a chance of progressing into the first team. Well not under this clown where is there incentive.
We should stand up for our club and our young players.
We must get this idiot out some how.
Lambert is a wanker full stop, is up Lerner’s back side, ruining Aston Villa with league rights. Get Him Out.
Just listened to his press conference from yesterday. The guy makes absolutely no sense!!!!
thats because he is a bellend buddy…
We are doomed.
But I’m being objective here, he talks in ‘random’. Never answers the questions, just replies in abstract. It’s clear that if he’s like this in training, no wonder instructions are misunderstood…if in fact there were any. Lerner is a a complete **** for forcing this imbecile on the club. (Self censorship there)!
Grealish didn’t say anything about boiling an egg he implied that he was unhappy about NOT playing for villa under Lambert – whose head by the way should be boiled.
And then hit with a very large teaspoon! Lol!
Lambert will never get fined for what he says because you can’t understand him.
Give Grealish a chance, i rate him better than Cleveley and at least goes forward.
5k fine for stating he enjoys playing is a disgrace.
Lambert needs to concentrate on how we intend to score goals and get up the prem table.
