Now you say it, the memory of Sturridge tearing us apart at Anfield has come flooding back. I'd successfully wiped it from my memory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought he played well today, look more dangerous with him up-front then Kozak or Gestede. But that doesn't mean ALL fans at the ground today do that. A lot will admire him and worship him. Shows how stupid he is if he cannot separate the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Nah, having seen the abuse our players get on social media I have a hard time blaming them to be honest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaJ100 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Not a fan these days but fair play he run his arse off, probably his best game in literally years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Tidy finish, Absymal goalkeeping. If he can get 5 more goals towards the end of the season I might hold out hope he can contribute next season. We aren't going to shift him, are we so might aswell get him into shape.

AntrimBlack Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I have been critical of him, but today, fair play, he was excellent. Looked up for it. We are in desperate need of him to keep this going. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So every single fan there today was abusing him? The 6/7 year olds who idolise him? Nah sorry. He's a dick. Good performance. But a dick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Man of the match, excellent, based on this you have to question why Garde hasn't picked him sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a dick. Good performance. But a dick. No-one is saying this, you appear to have blown the whole situation into something it's not. All that's been said is it's understandable he didn't feel the urge to celebrate with the fans after the amount of abuse he's received. No-one has said he hates all Villa fans or vice versa or whatever else you want to create, just that the mindset is understandable.

It's a massive chip he carries and probably hinders his performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arj Guy Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Excellent today. Fair play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I give him a lot of criticism so credit where it's due, he really was brilliant today. What made it even better was that he was up on his own so he really had to run at everything. I'm not going to get to far ahead though, I'm sure you all know Gabby will have his 1 fantastic performance then usually disappear again. If he can keep this up over the next weeks then fair enough.

Stevo985 Posted February 6, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted February 6, 2016 Garde maybe has got many things right but he was wrong to discard Gabby. I know he's underperformed but still a better option than Gestede and Kozak Gabby's been injured for most of the time Garde has been here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Did much better, good on him. His work rate was better today and went notably up after he scored, classic striker syndrome I should know, I was very much like that when I played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imavillan Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 for so many people on here the guy just cant win can he? he doesn't care, he's not fit, he doesn't score etc etc etc etc....and now when he does score he doesn't bloody celebrate....unbelievable....
