Grealish's Everton move couldn't be more perfect – just look at David Moyes' history of unleashing gems
Grealish will surprise a few people this season according to a legend TROY DEENEY Grealish's Everton move couldn't be more perfect – just look at David Moyes' history of unleashing gems I LOVE Jack Grealish's move to Everton. In any team, you always need that wildcard in and around a good structure and he can be that guy for David Moyes. 4 Grealish hasn't been himself since helping City to win the treble Credit: AFP 4 Troy Deeney knows a thing or two about bouncing back from adversity Credit: Rex Advertisement 4 He has been working out and keeping in shape all summer- he just needs the trust and consistency to get back to his best Credit: INSTAGRAM @jackgrealish 4 He was key in Manchester City dominating both Europe and the Premier League Credit: Getty It's perfect for Jack – he will be given time and space to express himself. At Manchester City under Pep Guardiola, he was limited by the expectation to pass first instead of looking for the space and attacking it without any shackles. Advertisement It will take a bit of time to get that back because Pep does well to coach that out of you. But Moyes is incredible at unleashing these players. He may be a defensively-minded manager, but he has a history of having these gems within the solid base. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL RED ALERT Man Utd 'agree to sell Jadon Sancho and set to make huge loss on £73m flop' Think of Steven Pienaar at Everton, or Lucas Paqueta at West Ham. Jack has taken a lot of unfair stick recently, and I cannot believe he is being criticised after the role he played for City winning the Treble – just look at his trophy cabinet. Advertisement People think of that iconic, shirtless, outstretched picture on the team bus celebrating the Treble and how it went downhill from there, but that's nonsense. And people don't like to hear it, but when it is a World Cup year, players bring it more than they normally would. BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK Jack has given himself a great chance of winning back his England spot in a team that I don't think will be fighting relegation like previous years. And given he will be playing in a brand new stadium, he has a chance to make history and new memories and become a real Everton hero. Advertisement

Helping to launch the upcoming event this week were Radio Nova's PJ Gallagher and Jim McCabe with the pair getting to grips with a rare Aston Martin DB11 as they announced that Cannonball 2025 will be back in Killarney Friday September 12 for the first stage finish line at 6pm at The Brehon Hotel. Cannonball founder Alan Bannon confirmed that Cannonball, the action-packed supercar spectacle is set to roll on September 12 to 14 from Johnstown Estate in Enfield taking in Ballymaloe, Killarney, Clare, Sligo, Cavan before finishing in Naas in Kildare. Cannonball is the largest organised road trip in Europe featuring the finest cars on the planet from Ferrari, Lamborghini and McLaren to Porsche, Aston Martin, and Maserati. Over 200,000 spectators are expected with free festivals organised from coast to coast. Cannonball has already raised €2,024,809 for Irish Children's Charities and brings an electric atmosphere to host towns all over the country, making it a widely anticipated free family event for spectators. The Jack and Jill Children's Foundation is an Irish children's charity that funds and delivers in-home nursing care, respite support and end-of-life care for children from birth to six years of age with severe learning disability often associated with complex medical needs and is often described as a 'lifeline', giving exhausted parent carers a break from their 24/7 care regime. Jack and Jill's service operates seven days a week, no means test, no red tape and no waiting list. 95 children in Cork have been cared for by the charity in Co. Kerry since its inception in 1997 and this year 12 children in Kerry are being cared for by Jack and Jill. The event offers spectators a unique opportunity to witness the world's most prestigious and sought-after supercars up close and enjoy the unique festival atmosphere that Cannonball is renowned for. The Brazilian Dancers, giant screens, music and fanfare brings all the glamour of carnival and live DJs, bands and festivals in host towns around the country get the party started.
