Tottenham hero Glenn Hoddle believes Manchester City will improve Jack Grealish's game.

Hoddle wrote for BBC Sport: "Looking at Jack from the outside, his move to Manchester City gave him the opportunity to develop his game and he is doing it already, by releasing the ball much quicker that he did at Aston Villa because he has more options around him.

"If he gets the balance right in that area of his game, then I think he will start to flourish again. There no reason why he cannot be out on the left for England, where he likes to play.

"Then you could play Foden or Mount as a number 10 inside him, and rotate them during the game. Just as Foden can operate anywhere, you don't have to tie Jack down to the wide areas because he is dangerous when he floats inside.

"I actually saw him play some of his best games for Villa when he was more central, because it opens up the whole pitch for him.

"He could thrive there eventually but I think he is still working out when to hold on to the ball at City. It was different at Villa because he was their release man, and he had to carry the ball, draw opposition players towards him and get the team up the pitch.

"Now he is at City, if you overload against Jack to try to stop him, then it means someone else such as Foden or De Bruyne is free and he has got to find a pass rather than keep possession.

"Judging the correct time to release it is one of the things he has got to work on but I am sure he will improve his decision-making while he is at City, because he has got the ability."
