Jack Grealish needs to sort himself out at Everton if he wants to get the final years of his playing career back on track.
The 31-year-old was left out of the Toffees' win over Newcastle United after being dropped for a breach of club discipline, which reportedly amounts to an unauthorised absence from training.
The ex-Aston Villa winger looked to have fallen in love with the Toffees faithful, and was beginning to look like the player who once lit up the Premier League.
But this season has not seen Grealish arrive with the same passion - it remains to be seen whether he will return to the Everton squad for Monday's trip to Newcastle.
Jack Grealish has been 'extremely irresponsible'
Just days before he was dropped from the Everton squad, Grealish is said to have spent two consecutive days partying with friends.
"He's a family man. Really, Jack, you're earning an awful lot of money for playing football. You don't earn a lot of money for going out drinking," King told Football Insider.
"You don't earn a lot of money for messing around with your so-called mates. Football's your game. Football's where the money is and football's given you the lifestyle that you're living.
"So, if you can't decide, so it's reported, a two-day bender after a trip to London for an award show, which was then followed by, again as is alleged, that he then went on the lash.
"That's extremely irresponsible for a good footballer. You don't cost £100 million if you can't play the game. That's what he cost.
"He was Britain's first £100million player. So, I think [David] Moyes would not have been pleased with that. That is for sure."
Has Grealish scuppered his Everton career?
Grealish will have to work hard to win back Moyes' trust. The Scot is a hard man to please on a good day, and especially after such a critical mistake.
The 31-year-old will have to earn that opportunity first, and it will come through dedicated effort in training.
Grealish is now officially fighting for his Everton career, and the coming months will be critical.
