Everton loanee Jack Grealish has been caught looking worse for wear in newly released images.

The Englishman was a true star for the Toffees earlier in the season before his campaign was brought to an end by injury.

His last outing for the Blues came away to his former side, Aston Villa, in mid-January before he was forced to undergo surgery.

He hasn't been available to David Moyes ever since, as he continues to rehabilitate and build towards being available for action.

Grealish continues to be absent for Everton and has been seen in a Manchester bar, with the emergence of pictures going down badly with Gabby Agbonlahor.

The attacking midfielder has always found enjoyment in his private life when it comes to having a drink and partying.

That was certainly seen after winning the treble at Manchester City, but with his trophy cabinet, no one could really blame him.

It seems as though those habits have continued into his Everton days after he was spotted in Stories, a rooftop bar in Manchester.

Images show Grealish asleep on a Saturday afternoon, but the release of these pictures certainly haven't gone down well with Agbonlahor.

The former Villa man has stuck up for his ex-teammate on talkSPORT, slamming those who took these photos, while noting that the 30-year-old is continuing to train.

He said: "My first thought was that I've been in that situation, and it just shows the sort of people that are out there who are taking pictures and what they are doing with them. It's happened to me quite a few times, and just, come on, do you not have anything better to do with your life than taking pictures?

"He's been through a lot. He's gone through a season-ending injury, and he's doing his rehab. I've seen what he's been doing in rehab, he's working hard to get back, and I think he's back available for training in July, he said to me the other day.

"He won't be happy with those pictures coming out, but I'm sure when he's doing his training, his rehab, he's doing everything right. It sums up this world we live in now that you want to take pictures and send them off."

Grealish could still be welcomed back to Everton, and it appears that he is working to get back fit, regardless of what these images portray.

There has been a general feeling aimed towards the attacker from fans, hoping that he is ok after yet another public display that is certainly unfavourable.

Agbonlahor seemingly knows that his friend and former colleague is ok, but is angry at what he has to go through in public.

That has been echoed on talkSPORT by his co-host Ally McCoist, who understands that Grealish has been silly, but is annoyed at the lack of privacy in this situation.

He said: "It might just be the worst invention on the planet, the camera phone. Scandalous. It's not a good look, let's not kid ourselves on, but at the same time, what happened to a bit of privacy?"

It is clear that Grealish has backing from the wider footballing world, with his old teammates covering his back in a tough time.
