With Grealish starting to really impress at Notts County, perhaps it's time to speculate about the point at which he should be called into the senior squad - I mean if he continues the way he's going, I don't think it's overly optimistic to think he could be in the Villa starting eleven next season and thus a realistic option for the Euro 2016 qualifiers - so should we be aiming to have him in the squad, at least, for the Autumn 2014 games? If so, perhaps a run-out against Serbia in March to blood him into the team might be a good idea..or maybe give him some game time in whatever friendlies we arrange for next summer. Or should we hold out until the March/June 2015 fixtures? Or the Autumn 2015 ties? Or is this one qualifying tournament too early to promote him?
