Man City attacker Grealish enjoys swipe at Real Madrid hero Guti

Manchester City midfielder Jack Grealish enjoyed hitting back at Real Madrid hero Guti last night.

Grealish was impressive for City's 4-0 Champions League semifinal rout of Real Madrid.

After the first-leg finished 1-1 in Madrid, Guti took a dig at Grealish for being ineffectual.

"The coaches have changed roles, now the bold one is Ancelotti and the defensive one is Guardiola," Guti told El Chringuito.

"Manchester City have less offensively. They used to have two full-backs who came in like lightning from the back and now they don't. They put in Bernardo Silva, who is not a winger, and they lose a player there.

"City have Jack Grealish, who doesn't dribble past anyone. In the Premier League he might outsmart everyone, but I haven't seen him in the Champions League."

However, after this week's win, Grealish hit back with a post on social media, with a zipped-face emoji aimed at Guti.
