Many fans were in shock when Jack Grealish was omitted from the England squad at Euro 2024. The £100m man with many unique attributes and importantly an ability to keep the ball in tight, high-pressure situations, he could've been utilised - especially in the final versus Spain.
Now under Lee Carsley, Grealish is back with the Three Lions.
Delighted with the quick turnaround, he still believes though that he should have been included in the Euros squad.
Having been named in the previous Euro 2020 and World Cup 2022 squads, it came as a surprise that he wasn't included for the side in Germany.
Grealish staked his claim in a fresh interview with BBC 5 Live, remarking that he could have offered something different to the squad:
"I think everyone can imagine I was absolutely devastated. It was probably one of the most difficult periods of my life.
"I think my whole career has been a lot of ups and downs, but, yeah, that was definitely right up there in terms of the downs.
"I'll be honest with you, I didn't really agree with it because it's just me, you know..."
Grealish then spoke on his wide-ranged ability across the game:
"I just know that my game is not just about goals. I think I give so much more to the team than just goals.
"So, yeah, you know, you asked me do I think I should have gone? And I still think that, yeah, I should have, but obviously it wasn't meant to be.”
