Jack Grealish arrives at the Man City trophy parade stumbling and looking worse for wear after his three day bender, which looks to continue.
Ruben Dias rescued his fellow teammate Jack Grealish when he stumbled from a tram in Manchester ahead of the open-top bus display with around 200,000 City supporters are expected to line the streets.
City, which won the Champions League on Saturday with a 1-0 victory over Inter Milan, was forced to postpone their open-top parade on Monday due to bad weather.
A statement from the club read: “Due to reports of adverse weather conditions and localised lightning storms, which are expected to reach Manchester city centre shortly, access to the stage show site on Oxford Street will be delayed.
“Gates for the stage show will no longer open at 17:00 and the stage show will not begin at 17:30.
“This decision has been taken in the interests of safety by Manchester City Council in conjunction with the Club and other local stakeholders, who have consulted with meteorologists and the Met Office.”
The City squad, despite the delay, embarked on a tram journey to Deansgate, which resulted in an amusing scene between Jack Grealish and Ruben Dias with Erling Haaland, John Stones, Ilkay Gundogan, Ruben Dias, Aymeric Laporte, Nathan Ake and Stefano Ortega also seen on the tram.
Grealish, as you can see in the video above, had difficulty getting out of the tram at the city centre.
“Jack’s looking well,” the commentator laughed. “He’s alive; that’s the main thing.”
On Monday night, Grealish will be joined by his City teammates to celebrate their treble winning campaign with a bus parade in the city centre of Manchester.
Pep Guardiola will travel with his squad to St Mary’s Gate from Tonman Street (Deansgate) at around 18:30 UK time.
The parade will continue through King Street and Cross Street before ending at the corner of Princess Street and then Portland Street.
The live stage show on Oxford Street will start at 17:30 UK Time, and the players are expected to arrive around 19:30.
MailOnline described three day bender Jack Grealish had out in Istanbul and Ibiza.
They wrote in brief: “Jack Grealish stayed out until sunrise for two nights running as he celebrated Man City’s historic Treble triumph with an almighty bender.
“The City winger kicked off festivities after Saturday’s Champions League victory over Inter Milan by leading the chants in the dressing room before leaving the stadium with a Heineken in hand along with a speaker blaring out Fleetwood Mac.
“After gulping down drinks during a big out in Istanbul, the 27-year-old emerged on Sunday morning still wearing his City kit.
“After the team headed back to Manchester, he was then jetted off to Ibiza with several other City stars including striker Erling Haaland – who’s described him as his ‘best friend in football’.
“Grealish finally arrived back in the UK yesterday, with one onlooker joking that the staggering star ‘didn’t have a clue what planet he’s on’. But he won’t have much time to rest – with City’s victory parade taking place in Manchester today. ”

This is what fans said as Jack Grealish arrives at the Man City trophy parade stumbling and looking worse for wear…
@ScottMiddl65039: City players actually looking for fans to celebrate with 😂
@abs_rufc: sports personality of the year imo 😏
@a779457: Don’t think any player has ever been more destined to play for my club. Blokes a bert through and through, what a guy 🤣
@Carefree_Jam: Man is just living his best life
@G160690Ward: Jack Grealish is some boy, living every young boys dream
@MWJS82: Fair fucks to Jack Grealish, having the session of his life and it’s playing out in front of a whole nation and more!
@Hotwheels_1978: Looks more sober than expected 🤣🤣
@redmanpe: Grealish is literally every football fan ever. Enjoy the hangover, lad.
@kevski07: Lad. Fair play to him and one of the very few footballers who actually cares about the fans.
@LFCkellzz: Can’t hate Jack Grealish tbf, so many robotic footballers nowadays without personalities. Grealish is just like all of us living a dream
@92_jackrich: Loving the videos of Jack Grealish made better by the fact nobody at Man City gives a fuck that he’s on a huge bender. No media training rubbish, just a lad living his absolute dream! 👏🏽
@jamesg_king: Jack Grealish transition from incredibly unlikeable to impossible to dislike is quite something fp 😂
@griffett_jake: Growing a soft spot for jack Grealish . Young lad . Booze , birds , trophies . Good lad
@wfmspod: Grealish can barely string 3 words together, hasn’t had a sober second since Saturday night
@benjyweimer: Grealish’s transformation from being a fleet footed fanny who dives about a bit into being everyone’s new favourite epic cheeky lad banter with Dark Fruits coursing through his veins is quite something. He nearly had me too with the Fleetwood Mac vid but I’m still resisting
@craigmitch1991: Grealish is absolutely smashed 🤣🤣🤣
@jacobMurtagh2: Grealish is mint not arsed not a robot like rest of em
@RobGordon1985: Watching these videos of Jack Grealish are class 😂😂 lad is absolutely living his dream
@RossBain3: You have to love Grealish for his down to earth attitude and just acting like “one of the lads”
The only thing I would say is, he’d almost certainly be the same drink wise if he was working a normal job, football hasn’t made him the way he is, it just brings a wider attention to it than if he were any Joe Bloggs. I’m sure his family will keep him sound.
