Jack Grealish shows true colours in referee chat after Everton's Man City heartbreak

Jack Grealish was spotted speaking with Michael Oliver in the aftermath of Manchester City and Everton 's dramatic 3-3 draw on Monday night. An explosive second half at Hill Dickinson Stadium has left City's title hopes hanging by a thread after they threw away a 1-0 lead. Everton turned the game on its head and raced into a 3-1 lead shortly after restoring parity, only for Jeremy Doku to step up and plunder a spectacular 97th minute equaliser to salvage a point for the visitors. The result means City no longer have their destiny in their own hands with Arsenal five points clear at the summit having played one game more than Pep Guardiola 's side. Although he is currently injured, Grealish was caught between a rock and a hard place on Monday night as an Everton player on loan from Manchester City. And while he was not able to participate in the game, a clip of the 31-year-old chatting with referee Oliver has surfaced on X. Neither side seemed too thrilled with the outcome, with Everton missing out on a famous victory due to Doku's late, late goal and City dropping precious points in the title race. With Arsenal now holding all the cards, Guardiola admitted it would be hard for City to beat them to the Premier League crown, even if he stopped short of conceding altogether. "We take the point and until it’s over, we’re going to continue," he said post-match. "It’s better than a loss. We played to win. It just shows what the team are. We tried and we have done it. It’s not in our hands. Before it was in our hands. Now, no. "We have to do it in our four games that we have in the Premier League. It will be quite similar against Brentford. We will see what happens." Doku, who had given Manchester City the lead just before half-time with another stunning strike, was more sombre after the final whistle. "It feels painful now," he said. "There is still a lot of games to go. We lost two points today. We will keep on fighting – we owe it to ourselves and to our fans."
