Jack Grealish has been in sensational form since joining Everton in the summer transfer window.
No player in the Premier League has more assists than Jack Grealish’s four this season, and he scored his first goal for Everton at the weekend.
And yet, England manager Thomas Tuchel left him out of his October camp, which came as a surprise to many.
Grealish’s former boss Tim Sherwood has now come out and shared how Tuchel really feels about the Toffees winger.

Tim Sherwood shares how Thomas Tuchel really feels about Everton star Jack Grealish
Speaking to Sky Sports News, Sherwood believes Tuchel is a really big admirer of Grealish and feels a call-up is inevitable.
“I’m not surprised (Grealish hasn’t been called up), I think there are a lot of players in Jack’s position,” the former Aston Villa manager said.
“But if he continues to play like he’s playing, I think it’s inevitable that he will get a call-up. I think Thomas Tuchel really likes Jack, I think he knows what Jack can offer on the pitch and I think he loves his personality off it – who doesn’t?

“Who doesn’t like that boy… I mean he’s an amazing character. They love Jack Grealish and we love him because he’s a maverick.
“He’s not a robot, he’s not a robot on the pitch and he’s not a robot off the pitch that’s what I love about him. He was a dream to manage for me.”
Jack Grealish respects Thomas Tuchel’s decision
Grealish, rather modestly, accepted Tuchel’s decision to leave him out and gave kudos to the players picked ahead of him.
“At the end of the day, you want to play for the national team but people are doing well in my position,” the 30-year-old said.
“I’m doing well also, but the people picked last month did really well in the two games so that’s fine with me. That’s the manager’s decision and I fully respect that.”
Grealish added: “I’m focused on playing for Everton because that’s who put their trust in me and believed in me, so I’m really enjoying it here.”
After this two-week camp, Grealish will have another four games to stake his claim before the November international break.
