Rds1983 Posted May 13, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted May 13, 2023 (edited) 2 hours ago, Zatman said: Only 10 teams have a top scorer with more goals, Palace probably go over us if Zaha stays another season. Everton and West Ham top scorers have scored fewer than Gabby Problem was anytime we had a striker Benteke, Yorke, Dublin they only really performed 3/4 seasons and moved on 10 teams is still half the league. Also, it took him nearly 350 games to score those goals. That's a goal every 4 or 5 games, which sucks for our 'best' goalscorer. I agree Benteke would have broken it if he'd stayed, which is one of the reasons Watkins remains with us for a bit longer as he could maybe break the record in 2 or 3 year's.

He was an Arsenal fan before and milked the club to its near death. An absolute scumbag A bit of perspective needed maybe. Gabby is a prat who let himself and us down, but he’s not a serial killer ffs. He wasn’t the root of all the club’s problems, he was a symptom of them. And he never ever fails to get a rise from Leeds fans and Bluenoses 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its all the clubs that ever played in the Premier League His record is shit but other teams are also not that high. Southampton and Leicester have higher scorers mainly because Le Tissier and Vardy for example had longevity 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess when considering the last 30 years I don't want to align Villa with the other so, so clubs you mentioned and want us to be more noteworthy.

Demitri_C Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Gabby was on TS earlier talking about before he was retiring he had offers from other clubs and even had from Solihull motors and that's when he said he would retire He also said he wouldn't sign for blose even of they offered him 1m a week 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan95 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Considering Solihull Moors basically seem like a (even) smaller version of SHA I'm sure their supporters would have loved that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him, Lescott and Richards - some of the biggest wasters of our relegation year. He tried to claim that Sherwood wanted to sign Keane, Aaron Lennon. But yes. Blame the French eh, just pathetic xenophobic overtures. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villatillidie95 Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 The whole squad that year was very unrelateable, I struggled to warm to the new guys that season too, but I think it’s fair to say that all of the players were contributing to our downfall that season and it wasn’t just the foreign signings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Townsend Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 People seem to forget, also, that a certain other "villa fan" currently playing at the Emptyhead, was also in the squad that got relegated and had discipline issues off the field that season. Another reason why I despise him. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hardly endeared himself to the management either in a squad staring down the barrel of relegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the baffling decisions Sherwood made - dropping Amavi and playing dross like Richardson. Giving too many games to crap like Bacuna. Making Richards captain was unforgivable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
