I don’t think it’s a coincidence that since he’s come into the team we’ve gone up a level.

Said the other week he’s the best player we’ve signed for years. I get the argument of gyokeres or Hamer but Grimes is the engine of the team. Everything we do goes through him just a proper proper player who’s never below a 7/10.

Makes the game look easy.

I hear you but Vik and Hamer turned basically a bunch of L1 players into serious PO contenders. Grimes turned Swansea into, well Swansea.

Hear *you* out? I’ve been banging this drum for ages. He can step into and midfield or any forward role. Perfect squad player.

I love Matty Grimes and he was just what we needed and need now however, he starts the play too bloody DEEP.

Hes meant to be a defensive midfielder, not a bloody centre back. Football isn’t hard. Do the basics ffs

That’s hindsight for you so fair enough.

This was just after we drew 0-0 at home to Hull, where we faced a defensive team with a low block. Granted it was the opening game so rustiness was at play but he was too deep for me which also left a gaping hole in the middle. It also meant he tried to start attacking plays too far back.

Whilst he still drops deep, I also think he gets forward more too and with the alignment of the formation, it works. It didn’t then.
