Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer seemed in good spirits ahead of their clash with Aston Villa in Old Trafford tonight as he laughed and smiled in his interview before the game. He commented on all of Aston Villa’s dangerous attacking options but singled out one specific player that his side would be careful up.
Ole spoke of how “you know everything about Jack Grealish, how good his driving with the ball is and getting fouls”. Jack’s is Villa’s star player but his performances have been clouded by bad press around his recent driving charges and fans accusing the player of diving. Grealish have played 14 games for Villa so far this season and has registered 5 goals and 8 assists for the club, proving that he’s a major part of the sides attack as he can create and finish.
Manchester United are a side that has repeatedly been linked with signing the Englishman but that doesn’t seem likely with the Ole talking this way about the player before games.
