He’s never struck me as the sort that would act like that to be honest. Any excuse to pile abuse on a player with no context though I guess. Social media at its finest again! Stupid thing to post on the day Smith was sacked. Didn't mean Villa? More like intentionally ambiguous. That or just plain thick.

MrBlack Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 2 hours ago, AndyM3000 said: He played today, his team were 2-1 down and reduced to 10 men for most the 2nd half. He provided the assist for the 2nd goal. Also got MOTM. Exactly what his post was about... poorly timed and a bit ignorant to post without context, but it was clear this was what he meant. Imagine if he'd been here to put pressure on Targett's place. I'm in the group that thinks he was unlucky to be bombed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Football Twitter is toxic. I'm wondering how much of it represents the actual fan base that comes to games regularly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 He's not good enough. He won't be good enough under a new manager. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been bloody good on his last 2 loans. We should never have been left with Elmohamady as back up for Cash, and that proved to be the case. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep the player who has spent the last 30 games being a top 5 rb in Europe and outperforming Anchraf Hakimi who cost 60 million is definitely not good enough to be used as a regular backup. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to know why that relationship seemed to go so sour. I don’t remember him being that bad when he did play for us either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he did himself any favours right at the beginning of his time at Villa when he publicly questioned why he wasn't starting games on Instagram. But seems like there was more to it than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AV82 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Smith always spoke about creating a culture and having a personable squad. Guilbert was a miserable bastard, rumoured to be homesick and wasn't performing on the pitch either. No wonder Smith didn't fancy him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never looked miserable to me, aggressive, yes, and angry at times, but performed well when used. I liked him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who said he's a miserable bastard? I don't blame Smith for loaning him out btw as I wasn't his biggest fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not good enough to play over Cash and he doesn't want to sit on the bench? Unless you think Guilbert is better than Cash.. which I don't because he can't control a ball or pass it 5 yards.
