squad after he was banished to the reserves, having
been spotted at a nightclub.
Aston Villa manager Remi Garde will bring Jack Grealish in from
the cold in an attempt to arrest the basement club's alarming
Premier League form.
Grealish was banished from the first team after being pictured in
a nightclub following a 4-0 loss to Everton last month, leading to
Garde accusing the young midfielder of lacking professionalism.
But after Saturday's 1-1 draw at Southampton, Garde revealed
Grealish is to be recalled as Villa - seven points adrift of safety -
bid to climb the table.
"Jack Grealish will play with the reserve team on Monday and
probably join the group after that," Garde told reporters.
The 20-year-old has only featured in one of Garde's four
matches in charge so far, with Villa taking just two points from
those fixtures.
Despite Joleon Lescott's first goal for Villa securing a point at St
Mary's, Garde's men slipped even further from safety after
strugglers AFC Bournemouth, Sunderland and Newcastle United
won.
Garde revealed he is looking forward to going up against his
former mentor Arsene Wenger in Villa's next match, having been
a part of the Arsenal squad that were double winners in 1998.
"It's a very good feeling [to face Arsenal again]. But my
personal feelings are not very important," he said.
"Of course I have very good memories and a strong relationship
with this English football club but I know that it is a very good
side and they will come to Villa Park to win the game."
