Everton winger Jack Grealish’s electric start to life on loan with the Toffees has seen him pick up his first Player of the Month award.
Grealish’s quest to reignite a career which stalled at Manchester City could hardly have enjoyed a better start. The 30-year-old showed flashes of the talent which earned him his £100 million ($135.6 million) switch to the Etihad in the first place, leading the Premier League for assists in August.
In his first two Premier League starts for Everton, Grealish contributed a total of four assists, setting up a pair of strikes in a 2–0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion before replicating that feat one week later to inspire a 3–2 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers.
“First one,” a shell-shocked Grealish remarked as he was surprised by his award by Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who insisted the victory was “fully deserved”.
