Rio Ferdinand explains what Jack Grealish must do to silence critics at Man City

Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has explained what Jack Grealish needs to do at Manchester City to silence his critics.

The City midfielder has been under the microscope since his £100million transfer from Aston Villa. The enormity of the English international's price-tag means both rival fans and pundits are quick to criticise Grealish especially amid his slow start to life at the Etihad Stadium.

The former Villa man is yet to score or provide an assist for City this season, although minutes have been at a premium for Grealish after picking up a knock against Bournemouth, which saw him miss the Blues' following three games. Last season, the 27-year-old only managed to score three goals and provide three assists in 26 league appearances for Pep Guardiola's side.
