No comment needed.


He gets a bad press, often deserved, but he is great on things like this. I think his brother sister might be handicapped, and he is probably more aware because of that but still.

He recently gave £5k to help fund surgery for a young Birmingham City fan, and he obviously didn’t have to do that either.

Credit where credit’s due 👍

In recent months, I've completely changed my opinion about the guy. He certainly now seems to get more good press than bad (such as those instances mentioned above), is a bit of a character in interviews (which is sometimes what the game needs) and says exactly what he thinks and doesn't try to be someone he's not. Plus he's managed to establish himself in the City team after a dodgy first season.

Top bloke.

Not joining the love in.

One of the most blatant divers I've ever seen.

OK, seems not a bad bloke in some ways

Professional and Private lives are two completely different things. Who can say that they’ve never told a porkie at work? It may just be being economical with the truth but essentially the same thing.

That is beautiful tbf. As a footballer, he's very over rated imho though and his drink driving is inexcusable. But we are all a bit ying and a bit yang and for this example I can only applaud him.

Like any other lad his age, he can behave like a knob. But the kid has a heart of gold. There lots of this stuff out there about him. I think his sister has a disability and he is very conscious of how their lives are affected. Folk would do well to take note of the values he has and realise all the other stuff reported is him just being a twenty something.

Not the brightest bulb in the light fitting but Grealish does seem like a genuinely likeable bloke and this act of simple kindness is typical of him. Nice one Jack!
