Manchester City can expect to see 'a lot more' from Jack Grealish once he learns 'Pep Guardiola's way', according to one of their former forwards.

Grealish arrived at the Etihad in the summer to many fans' delight. The £100million man was seen as a stellar addition to a side which already boasted plenty of attacking midfield quality.

However, in his 31 appearances this season, the 26-year-old has only managed four goals and three assists has led to many feeling disappointed by his contributions. However, speaking to William Hill, Shaun Wright-Phillips is confident that City will see the best from the Englishman.

"There’s still a lot more to come from Jack," the 40-year-old explained. "He’s shown that at Aston Villa.

"People need to understand he’s come from a club where he was getting the ball with every attack they had. He’s now come to a club where he’s not necessarily the main man, he’s got to fit into a system of the way that City play.

"The last few games you can see, the game in the FA Cup (against Peterborough) where Phil Foden puts him in behind and he takes a first touch and it’s a great finish. The game against Manchester United, I thought he played really well in that.

"It’s about him now just keeping on learning the ‘Pep way’ and once he gets that he’ll be fine and flying." The Blues will be hoping that Grealish is on top form Sunday when they host Liverpool in what many are deeming to be a title decider.
