Fans cannot get enough of Jack Grealish's outstanding post-match interview after Man City win over Chelsea

Jack Grealish gave the least media-trained interview ever after assisting Man City's winner against Chelsea.

Everyone loved Jack Grealish giving yet another brilliant post-match interview after he came off the bench to set up Manchester City's winner at Chelsea.

City were sloppy and lacking invention in the first half, causing Pep Guardiola to make two changes at half-time.

He made a further two subs shortly after, with both Riyad Mahrez and Grealish entering the fray and making the difference for the Premier League champions.

Grealish delivered a perfect left-footed pass at the far post for Mahrez to sneak in and score a tap-in. Afterwards, he was whisked in for an interview alongside the panel on Sky Sports and produced utter gold once again.

The former Aston Villa captain analysed his assist but simplified it brilliantly by admitting he was just looking for Erling Haaland.

Honest as ever, Grealish said: "I've put my head down to cross it and straight away I'm thinking, Erling's got to be somewhere."

He went on to explain that he asked the Norwegian goal where he was after the game and he told him he had pulled for the cut-back.

Grealish continued: "I said to him [Erling Haaland], 'Where were you?' He said because everyone was in there he pulled back.

He also told exactly what was going through his head on the bench watching the action, before Mahrez informed him they were both being brought on at the same time.

"The manager told Riyad [Mahrez] to go warm up, he didn’t actually tell me so I thought I’m going to warm up here and I’m not even coming on, then Riyad said Jack we’re going on. I was like, 'Buzzing, see you later.'"

Conversation then turned to Grealish going to the same school as Sky pundit Karen Carney, capped 144 times by England.


That prompted the Three Lions star to come up with a gem of a line when he said, "That's where our brainy minds come from" in his thick Brummie accent.

Not for the first time, Grealish came across so likeable and couldn't sound any less media-trained if he tried - something fans lapped up.

One fan replied: "Immense interview, what a likeable personality."

A second said: "He’s just a proper nice lad who’s living the dream."

A third wrote: "Most down to earth footy player him the way he’s speaking like he’s just speaking to a mate."

A fourth opined: "What a refreshing fella @JackGrealish is by the way.. hell of a player too. Smashing life out the park."

A fifth commented: "How good was @JackGrealish post match interview."

A sixth added: "Really refreshingly open and personable interview. Makes players so much more likeable (even if you support their rivals!)"
