villaguy Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 He actually has a white Aston Martin now as the Lambo was costing him a fortune! Imagine having to do that. And they say the recession is over, poor bloke. It wasn't a lamborghini sesto element though, I doubt he'd struggle to afford any other lambo on his wages unless he is extremely bad with money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dearer than Sesto /smugmode Is that the model he had, looked like an Aventador on his keek No, he didn't have a Veneno. I'm saying he wouldn't afford one of those either! €3.3m (or £3.3m if you believe some articles). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaguy Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Yeah, they have made some very expensive and very desirable one offs/very limited production models. I'm just confused he found the costs hard to handle on a car he could buy outright after about 7 weeks wages after he's been taxed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3te Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Nobody suggested he couldn't afford it, merely that it was choosing him a fortune. That's the sign of someone who's not reckless with money IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czechlad Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 In the sun today saying he really wants to play for England and will try to improve over the season to get on the plane to rio Won't happen. Roy Hodgson doesn't know Aston Vlla exist. If Gabby scores more than 10 goals this season from the LF position and we finish top 10, Roy will pick him. Same with Delph.

Didn't he do that last season and Roy still didn't pick him. I think he's way down in the pecking order and would have do something sensational to get into the world cup squad.

Mantis Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) Gabby will never get into the England squad under Hodgson, no matter what he does. If he wasn't prepared to pick him a little while ago when most of the established England forwards were injured then he'll never call him up.

VillaChris Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I've always maintained Gabby isn't really that bothered about England despite these interviews he's giving. He's pulled out of quite a few squads when Capello was calling him up plus the under 21s a while ago so I reckon that's part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folski Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I talked to him when he was on u21 duty in cork, went down to the game to see himself and Luke. Luke was the much more happier of the two and came and chatted with me when he was going off after the warm up, gabby just had his gabby head on but did pose for a photo.

I think welbeck needs to be decapitated before gabby gets a look in. When there was the striker injury problem, gabby probably deserved a call up, but overall he is too inconsistent for England (but then other players are a joke) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 I think in terms of the defensive aspect of that wide role both Gabby and Welbeck do a good job. In terms of technique Welbeck has a slight edge. And that's saying something, this has always been Gabbys downfall at international level. Gabby is a much much more explosive player and would tear apart some defences in WC in a way that Welbeck wouldn't even attemptBoth are pretty inconsistent in front of goal. Overall he'd be a great option to have in a WC squad but I'd doubt Roy will work him in, as much as anything because he doesn't seem to rate him. There is no way Sterling is a better player right now for instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Gabby would be perfect from the bench, especially in Brazil when players get tired. His pace for 20 minutes could work wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
