Jack Grealish receives massive crowd roar as he comes on for Man City debut, and his hairstyle is already catching on with fans

Jack Grealish's eagerly anticipated debut was greeted with a massive roar of approval from the Man City faithful at Wembley on Saturday.

City’s new £100million man received a huge roar from his new supporters as he joined the action as a second-half substitute against Leicester in the Community Shield.

With the score locked at 0-0, Pep Guardiola called for Grealish to warm-up at the start of the second half.

He was booed by the Leicester end but of course cheered on the opposite side of the stadium.

Just after the hour mark, he entered the fray.

An emphatic roar erupted as his name was read out and he made his way to join the action.

TV cameras panned to show young fans with 'Grealish 10' shirts.

One youngster shown was even attempting to emulate his new hero's hairstyle.

However, it's fair to say the debut did not exactly go to plan.

Grealish showed flashes of his potential, but struggled to make an impact and break Leicester's resolve.

In the end, it was the Foxes who won the day.

A penalty was awarded with four minutes remaining as Nathan Ake was robbed of the ball by Kelechi Iheanacho and brought him down inside the area.

Iheanacho stepped up himself and blasted the ball past Zack Steffen to claim victory.

It's fair to say that Grealish left Aston Villa to win trophies bigger than the Community Shield, but his dream start was denied regardless as the game ended 1-0.
