JACK GREALISH has finally hung up his party hat to join the England squad after three days of non-stop celebrations.
And pal Tyrone Mings says everyone in the Three Lions camp has been hugely entertained by Jack the Lad's marathon spree.
Grealish and Manchester City colleagues Kyle Walker, John Stones, Phil Foden and Kalvin Phillips reported for international duty on Tuesday night after completing the Treble by lifting the Champions League in Istanbul three days earlier.
And ahead of Friday's European Championship qualifier in Malta, defender Mings said: “Jack's had a great time, hasn't he?
"But surely he's all partied out now?
"The only thing he needs to do is to celebrate at the right time and he's just won the Treble, so I don't think anyone can begrudge him taking that hairband off and letting down those luscious locks.”
Mings, who was a team-mate of Grealish's at Aston Villa, added: “A night out with Jack is extremely wild.
“I've bumped into him on holiday in the past but I've never put myself in the position where I've flown out with him.
“I've seen him in action abroad and many, many times in this country and it's impressive, if that's what you're into.
“It's good to see footballers enjoying themselves.
"Football is just a reflection of society and nobody can come down too harshly on you for celebrating your victories.
“And City have won everything.
“It's important to be yourself in life, whatever that looks like. It adds to the game and to the dressing room.
“It adds to the culture and the authenticity — and that's a tough trait to come across.
“The manager always talks about our club experiences and adding to the group — and we have a squad full of serial winners.
“When you look around the European and domestic competitions and the amount of England players involved in those finals, it can only help us.”
Liverpool skipper Jordan Henderson, who won the Premier League title in 2020 and the Champions League in 2019, added: “The lads will have been enjoying themselves over the last few days and rightly so because they have been incredible this season.
“Fair play to them, they have deserved everything they have achieved.
“They will have celebrated hard over the last few days. It will be a challenge and it will be tough for them to recover.
'OTHER JUICES WERE AVAILABLE!'
“Maybe they won't be involved in the first game but be ready for the second one. They are professional lads and they will be raring to train, get going again and contribute to England.
“It's always a privilege and an honour to represent your country and you can never take that for granted.”
Grealish's wild post-Istanbul antics were in stark contrast to Mings' celebrations after Villa beat Brighton on the final day of the season to qualify for the Europa Conference League.
The defender, 30, said: “It felt like the end of such a long season and it was really important for the club and the fans to be able to celebrate that jubilation.“But after that final game I didn't do anything because I had a golf day the next day and I wanted to be in some reasonable shape for that.
“So I was in bed by about 11 o'clock with a Ribena... although other juices are available!”
