Grealish's antics made headlines and one, in particular, drew the attention of several Newcastle fans, who were left less than impressed by the former Villa man's comments.
In an Instagram story posted by Bernardo Silva, Grealish took to comparing the performance of teammate Riyad Mahrez to Almiron.
"There were two secrets... number one, Riyad, take him off the pitch, as soon as possible. He played like Almiron yesterday," he said.

He added: "I'm doing what I have loved doing my whole life. I'm the most expensive British player but I'm also the Jack from Solihull who my friends and family know. I'll never let that leave me, no matter what anyone says."
He said: "It's fine [being England's poster boy]. It is what it is. If that's what people think, that's fine. I think it's a good thing to have - and you just have to embrace it.
"I try not to let anything get to my head. It's all about enjoying it, as long as I'm enjoying myself, playing football and enjoying life off the pitch even; then I will perform well. Fingers crossed I can do that over the few weeks and a few games.
"I love training, playing with the lads. It's such a good bunch. We always look forward to playing with each other."
