Even the African cup of nations won't be enough to see Gabby back in team, he's done here. That's not the most convincing bunch bar RMC. If he sorted himself out and still had pace I'd give him a chance. If he can add something I believe Bruce could deal with him.

RHM is very young and raw but we'll see. Let's hope that exercise bike ain't just for piling clothes on now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh i agree its a pretty sorry bunch, but all of them are currently ahead of Gabby, which tells its own story. Honestly mate i would put my mortgage on the fact that Gabby will never play for us again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvfcRigo82 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I have given my take what I think of GA in recent posts. SB is basically telling him here's his final chance of keeping anything of a football career and the onus is on him now. Get your head out your arse, get yourself match fit and fight for a position or the club is going to dump you out of sight. Obviously GA has got away with murder with managers since Graham Taylor MKII but I feel with this manager he has met his match and his bullshit is not going to wash anymore. Personally I do not think he deserves to wear the shirt again but I wouldn't be suprised that if he where ever to be available for selection again that the manager would pick him and defy the fans and boot a new lease of life into him - but also at the same time he equally needs to want it. Do I agree, no. But since when has a football manager ever taken notice of what fans think, enough to sway a team selection otherwise? If this is not last chance saloon for someone then I don't know what is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 It would be really really nice if he played a game in January, plays his socks off, scores a goal or two, is heavily involved, and is a constant nuisance to the opposition, making a statement " That's why I didn't go to Reading. I have unfinished business here. I know I have upset people here, but I want to make amends the only way I know how, by playing the best football I can". But this is just a wonderful dream. He is 30 now. He did very little when he should have been in his prime. It is very hard to come back from that, no matter how much fitness work he does. It is hard to hold any hope for a positive comeback, and any comeback will merely be Gabby trying to jump the shark. With a unicycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I guess your probably right about the thread- but let's be fair JV you indulge don't you? As for his record- it's really not great is it?

I was actually going to ask if given the option of A.Signing a top midfielder in January and using Gabby as a striker or B.Signing another forward and keeping the current midfield, what would the majority choose? (I think Gestede will be here too, Benin have been knocked out no?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
