From the source

Jack Grealish was absent for last month’s match against Arsenal with a reported illness, but the Everton loanee then missed their next game against Newcastle United due to an unspecified disciplinary issue.

With that in mind, it’s notable that The S*n report that Grealish was out drinking in London and Wilmslow during the week prior to the Arsenal game.

The 31-year-old reportedly went out on Monday and Tuesday nights, though he did attend Everton training during the day on Tuesday. Yet by the weekend, he was too ill to face the Gunners.
