Key Takeaways:
- Jack Grealish was awarded the Premier League Player of the Month for August
- The Everton winger registered four assists in his first two league starts
- Grealish could become the first player to deliver multiple assists in three consecutive Premier League games when Everton take on Aston Villa on Saturday
Exceptional Form on Merseyside
Jack Grealish has made a resounding impact since his season-long loan move from Manchester City to Everton, becoming the first Toffees player to win the Premier League Player of the Month award since Dominic Calvert-Lewin in September 2020. The England international, who celebrated his 30th birthday on Wednesday, was elected for the August honour following a stellar run in the opening fixtures.
Standout Statistics and Achievements
After making his Everton debut as a substitute against Leeds, Grealish quickly established himself as a key figure, starting the following two matches – both victories against Brighton and Wolves. In these matches, he provided four assists, a tally unmatched by any other player at this stage of the campaign – he leads by two assists after three league fixtures.
