SeanO Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 He's a Villan but that doesn't mean he should be in the team as his form has been poor for way too long now. If Sherwood has learn't anything this week it's that it doesn't mean a thing if you are the best player in training it matter's what you do on the pitch, if Sherwood is unsure still all he has to do is read Macca's autobiography. Training will show you what player can do without pressure, matches show what they are capable of when it's for real and Gabby has been proving to us for too long now that he hasn't got the heart for the fight.

WooJung Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Being played in the wrong role. Stop playing him with his back to goal and get him running in behind defenders instead. He played as a main striker under McLeish after Bent got injured. Didn't manage to score a single goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Being played in the wrong role. Stop playing him with his back to goal and get him running in behind defenders instead. A bench role is what he needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poitier Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 The only role I can see for him now is coming on as the lone striker when we are desperately defending a one goal lead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meregreen Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Being played in the wrong role. Stop playing him with his back to goal and get him running in behind defenders instead. And still the excuses for this man appear. He's crap wherever he plays, has been for years. Get rid ASAP. Would prefer someone with a brain . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Thing is you can see him in 10 years time being on Sky Sports labelled as a 'Villa Legend'. The man has been coasting for 2 years and I hope Sherwood tells him that to his face. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 But he wasn't shit in 2012/13 season though. 9 league goals, mostly in the second half of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumstopdogs Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Shouldn't have been given a new contract and shouldn't be in the team. In the approx 33 hours of football he has played this season he has managed 3 goals and 0 assists. Shocking! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But really he has 1 decent season in the last 3 and 3 quarters season. Dire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted February 23, 2015 Moderator Share Posted February 23, 2015 I'm guessing now's a bad time to mention that the game against Stoke was Gabby's 341st, moving him level with Peter McParland in 21st on the all time appearances chart. If you're interested, McParland got 121 goals in his 341 appearances, Gabby has 81 in his. As you were. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted February 23, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 23, 2015 He should be used as an impact player when we're playing on the break in away games. Other than that he's useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Now we have stopped playing counter attack football, he is useless. Another argument could be used about us playing counter attacking football again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
