wouldn't you sulk if you were been played out of position for most of the season and had to play under a manager like mcleish?
I'm sure there are times at work when 99.99% of us have to do things we don't like....you just get on with it, that's life...Being a footballer shouldn't have anyway leeway on this fact
i bet some of us have done a lot of sulking this season with some of the performances we've had to put up with, so were allowed and he is not? bearing in find hes also a fan.
you can't come on here in general complaining about mcleish for making us shit and then having a go at a player for sulking because of it when were all doing the same anyway.
I don't really understand your arguement. As a fan, yes Gabby is perfectly entitled to sit at home and sulk about the way villa are performing and our awful league position. However, he is employed as a footballer, therefore irrelevant whether he is a fan or not, he should do what his manager tells him to do to the best of his ability not sulk on the pitch that he isnt being played on his favourite position. If my manager asks me to do something (within my terms of employment) I have to do it, otherwise i'd face disciplinary action. I'd be very surprised if Gabby's contract states he has to a play as astriker and therefore he is unlikely being asked to work outside his terms of employment.
Adversly as a fan of Villa, wouldn't you, given the opportunity "bust your gut" to play for villa week after week? Look at Ian Taylor when he was here, never the most technichal player but would run through brick walls for the Villa cause. Gabby doesn't seem to be doing that.
