The Pep Guardiola Jack Grealish 2025 saga has exploded into controversy after talkSPORT's Jamie O’Hara launched a furious rant at the Manchester City boss, accusing him of “ruining” the £100m man and acting like a “spoilt brat.”
With Grealish now reportedly left out of City’s 35-man Club World Cup squad, his future at the Etihad looks bleak—and the former Villa man could be on his way out just three years after his record-breaking move.
“I think he's like a spoiled brat... He spent £100 million on Jack Grealish. Ruined him.” — Jamie O'Hara, talkSPORT
Grealish’s Diminishing Role at City
Despite winning every major trophy under Guardiola, Jack Grealish has seen his playing time dwindle:
| Season Stat | 2024/25 |
|---|---|
| Total Appearances | 32 |
| Premier League Starts | 7 |
| Goals + Assists | 8 |
O’Hara: “If Arteta Did This, He’d Be Sacked”
O’Hara didn’t hold back in comparing Guardiola’s treatment of Grealish to other top managers:
“If that happened with Declan Rice at Arsenal, Arteta would get the sack. Pep gets away with it because he’s Pep.” — Jamie O’Hara
The radio host argued that Guardiola is wasting a £100m investment without even attempting to get more out of the player.
Should Grealish Leave Man City?
Former striker Troy Deeney believes the time has come for Grealish to walk away—and identified Spurs as a potential landing spot.
“He may have to lower his expectations… but you could see him at Spurs playing every week.” — Troy Deeney, talkSPORT
With the 2026 World Cup looming and new England manager Thomas Tuchel watching closely, Grealish needs minutes—something he’s unlikely to find under Guardiola.
