He doesn't play in midfield for Villa though
----------------------------------------------------------------------

This. This. And this.

He just doesn't fit at United as we stand and as he plays.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He plays either left of a front 3 or at number 10. 2 positions that are contained in the 4-2-3-1 Ole uses. Don’t see how he doesn’t fit it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don’t want to put words in TRC’s mouth, but is he hinting at the fact that we already have Rashford and Bruno locked in in the positions that Grealish plays?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No I totally get that but the point I’m making is that we don’t have any real quality competition in either position.

If Bruno gets a long term injury do we go back to Lingard, Pereira or Mata who are not good enough.

If Rashford gets another injury then we only really have James as back who again isn’t really top quality.

Rashford has this injury from being overplayed as we have no one else on his level.

Grealish could also be a better option than Rashford in certain games where the opposition sits deep.

Where does he play for Villa? When I’ve seen them he seems to have a pretty fluid free role, much like what Fernandes settled into in our last few games.

He isnt a defender or a forward. He is an offensive minded midfielder.

Matic, McTominay, Fred are the defensive minded players

Pogba and Fernandes are the offensively minded midfielders.

Mata, Lingard and Periera aren’t good enough.

An offensively minded midfielder isn’t therefore a luxury. Especially given the uncertainty around Pogbas future.
