I for one have personally no idea whatsoever who he followed as a youngster, may I ask how you know this purely out of interest and with no agenda?

dont_do_it_doug. Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Sure, but where are they supposed to go? If nobody wants them or are not willing to pay them as much/little as Aston Villa, or the club doesn't want to sell to a relegation rival, or..or...or... should the player just hang up his boots or take a pay cut because some supporters are vile against him? I get you. No, I don't think they should. Though I do think that if Gabby had a little ambition, a bit more about himself, he'd have found a club an alternative club a long time ago. I'd also expect 100% effort *most* of the time (we all have bad days and weeks) and I don't feel like we've gotten that from Gabby. I say that coming from a position of backing him quite extensively over the years. I think though, even his most vehement detractor on here would say that the abuse he receives on social media is unacceptable. There's an easy solve to that though.

TRO Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) Abusing him is unacceptable. However My view is ....He has found a cushion to lie on. He wouldn't go anywhere else 1) He doesn't want to, I do believe his heart is with us.....but he has just been caught up in the club paying for mediocrity and gone with it. 2) No other club would be attracted to him.....he has set his stall out. I don't believe with Gabby's past goal scoring record any other club would have offered a new contract. He is an epitome of everything Aston Villa.....They are both like a couple of old slippers.

sne Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Truly horrendous once again, why Garde keeps him in the team is baffling. He did nothing except one run per half, and after those looked totally exhausted. Him standing still is infuriating, even his trademark run p****s me off now- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) Why he continues to start games at this level is a complete and utter joke get out of this football club and take the other bunch of losers with you Edited March 5, 2016 by AshVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and no other mug would be willing to pay half of what he's earning, let along match ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferguson1 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Quite simply lazy and doesn't care! Thanks for some good memories but now needs to sit in the stands and go at the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReasonforRevolution Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Rashford scores 2 in Europe and 2 against Arsenal whilst on £500 a week for Man Utd. He is now looking at an improved contract of £15,000. Meanwhile Gabby strolling on £65,000 a week..... I just can't work it all out. It's all confusing. Do you not pay for what you get?! I've defended him but I no longer can. Anyway no one will match his wages and he has got years on this deal so he won't make it easy. He has cruised for too long so it about time Sellars and co. we're given a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 What you should be asking is what will rashfords perfromances be like when he makes it to 21 with a few million in the bank and its out a reason to care... There have been plenty of rashfords and plenty of gabbys in English football over the last ten years 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 We are going to end up to pay him to leave aren't we? I can't see even a championship side wanting him. Next season his is testimonial year. I doubt anyone would bother turning up to his game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
