  Robbie Keane signed for his “boyhood heroes” at least 4 times. 

  Must have had a lot of heroes I guess.

  Most footballers arent blessed with brains & they will say what they are told to say. 
  
  Grealish is hardly likely to say....." Not really where I want to be playing....no Champions League & probably fighting relegation again this season". "I suppose it helps that we play in blue so I can at least think I'm still play for Citeh"

  Once a blue, always a blue.

  Remember the tweet from the Sunderland (?) player, who even copied the bit that said: "Now tweet this"

  Yeah was Victor Anichebe. Would be surprised if Grealish manages his own accounts

  I note that he didn't say that he was "over the blue moon".

  Is there any other response in the players repertoire, that doesn't cover all of.....'What Jack said', when signing for a new club. 
  
  I get it, that its what the fans love to hear, but for once it would be more honest, to hear that his agent had been hawking him around for weeks / months, with little to no interest, or be really honest and say, "I went to the club that offered the highest wages!"
  
  
  

  Roughly translated to “nobody else was interested”

  I know what you mean via original point made. 
  
  Players always exaggerate or pretend to really and truly give a shit - as that is what is advised for them to do.
  
  To be fair to Jack, what he says does sound at least partially genuine here.
  
  Everton will also be playing in a new ground when the PL seasons starts. If JG wants to be playing every week, then going to Everton was a good choice.

  He is a very good player indeed - annoying over eggs it on the pitch too often e.g. showboating when a killer pass would be better - personally, him moving to Shitty was a bad move
  
  BUT one thing I love about him, he has a disabled sister, and he is so loving and caring to her - she is his number one fan, and he knows that and gives her love back in spades - yeah he is paid a lot of money, but he is grounded when it comes to his family IMO
  
  Best thing he can do - go back to Villa, and become a Villa legend - but do they want him 🤷
