After an agonising injury and the comedown from Manchester City’s treble, the winger has his sights set on Euros revenge

Because it is Jack Grealish, it is tempting to call it a hangover. After the glorious madness of last season, when he and his Manchester City teammates pulled off the ultimate treble, there was always the possibility he would feel a little bit discombobulated when he got back to work. He agrees that it has been the case, even if he cannot quite find the right words to describe it.

Grealish has endured a difficult season so far, which is one of the reasons he is so keen to put on a show for England in the friendly against Australia at Wembley on Friday night. And in the Euro 2024 qualifier against Italy next Tuesday, also at the national stadium.
