Football is utterly brilliant at times, sometimes for the action on the park and sometimes for the action off it - however, in this case, it's most definitely the latter: 


Yep, that's right; Aston Villa's Jack Grealish has been compared to 'The Only Way Is Essex' star Joey Essex in a hilarious chant from QPR fans.

QPR fan Colin Clarke started the chant of 'You're just a S**t Joey Essex' as Jack Grealish was warming up to come on during the match at Loftus Road last Sunday.


Here's the video, now gone viral:

While Grealish laughs off QPR fans' chant, it must be said there are some similarities between the footballer and the reality star:

"?"?At the age of 21, Grealish has already had quite an interesting start to his career, facing plenty of media scrutiny for one so young; however, this comparison even had the Aston Villa midfielder laughing.


Although the last laugh ultimately belonged to Aston Villa, who took all three points in their 1-0 victory over Rangers.
