Jack Grealish joined Everton on loan in August after limited game time at Manchester City. He played only 715 Premier League minutes last season but averaged 2.9 chances created from open play per 90. Grealish provided both assists in Everton's 2-0 win over Brighton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, marking his third top-flight match with at least two assists and equalling his assist total from the previous two league campaigns. He could have had a third assist late on and left to a standing ovation. Grealish says the move is about enjoying football again, citing Everton's history and family prompting.
It's hard to explain - a lot of people, when they leave City, it's one of the best clubs in the world, [they have] won four Premier League titles in the past five years, won the Champions League and a lot of cups. I don't know where people expect you to go.
The main thing for me is to enjoy football, enjoy playing every day. Maybe in the past couple of years, I've not fallen out of love, but I've not enjoyed football as much as I should. My family said it to me a couple of times. That's down to no one - it's down to myself.
