Still to this day Agbonlahor doesn’t know it was Ashley Young who tapped him on the shoulder.

Ben you are an amazing interviewer. You really let the guests breathe, which is quite rare with modern interviews.

That agent sounds like an absolute guardian angel ❤

The sooner Watkins beats his record the better.

Engaging and interesting. A mature, honest Gabby Agbonlahor answering questions in a well balanced interview. Whoever chooses to focus on and attempt to magnify/highlight his lows rather than his highs with mudslinging comments, are probably carrying around immaturity issues within themselves. Plus they more than likely didn't listen to the full interview so as to understand his life from his perspective. Gabby is Villa through and through. I've got time for him. Warts 'n' all. UTV

People saying hes bad for going out drinking and that, imagine being 18, being a premier league footballer on thousands a week, and the temptation of going out etc, it would be hard not to

I like Gabby because he's very real and relatable. What you see is what you get. You can see that he's not forgotten his roots. UTV💜💙

I like Gabby & how he loves Villa. He could’ve been a villa legend but as he’s said, lifestyle got in the way.

Gave us good memories. He was a very good player in the MON years and scored alot of goals against the blues, should of scored a lot more for the amount of games he played. But I guess the partying took its toll.

Seen Gabby around Erdington when he was starting out. Really nice lad. Got to big for his boots but who wouldn’t if living that lifestyle. Great to see he’s more grounded and more like the lad we used to see in the Keys and the Eagle and Tun back in the day. All the best Gab UTV

Gabby is the man on talksport and he's hilarious, great banter - keeps it real and says it how it is like all brummies

Like Gabby says he is what he is . Honest. I would definitely buy him a drink if l see him out 👍🏻 lived the dream so fair play. up the villa

"we need someone who's called Steve." great line.

As a Villa fan, sad how his time ended at Villa. Definitely tarnished his image but would be great to have a pint and chat with. Great interview.

Gave us some great moments as a villa fan. Maybe didn’t reach his potential but at his peak 07/08 to around 10/11 was a good striker :) UTV

Great interview, Gabby was electric for a few years at villa. I was at Old Trafford when he scored the winner in the O Neill era. Great days, thank you Gabby. UTV

Blues fan but I like Gabby, he isn't the sharpest tool in the box but he doesn't try to be and doesn't have an ego unlike people like Deeney. Can't believe he's Villas all time top scorer with 80 odd goals though 😄

Enjoyed this

I scaffolded gabbys house on Roman way knocked down an old house n built a new one think he's moved now funny thing happened there was a little old shed in the garden what couldn't be touched or moved because bats were in it so he had all the land landscaped everything all new but this little old shed remained he wernt happy lol KRO

As a Villa fan he was good for a coupla seasons, his goals to games/seasons record was poor. 74 goals in 300 odd games over 12 years.

@@jimmypopt.v.3037 Stephen Warnock was recently on Under The Cosh podcast talking about training at Villa under O'Neill. Apparently Gabbie used to make the decisions in that regard and they only trained two days a week!

Can someone count how many times he said “do you know what I mean?” Funny guy though

He would make a great mentor for young players been there seen it done it ⚽️👍

Lets get one thing straight, "playing at the highest level" does not automatically make a person a better football analyst. There are some great players who have the most ridiculous takes especially on management when they themselves have failed or can never take that job, and thats ok, but doesn't mean someone who hasnt played at that level cant call it out or have a better opinion. Football opinions are not reserved for only those who played at the highest level, when they give cr*p opinions it will be called out!

I worked with his younger brother in a sales job. Heard some crazy stories

That accountant finesses😄

This entire interview was him just talking about his nonstop partying and lavish holidays. Not a damn thing about working and training hard to win something in his career. Unfortunately just another leech who milked the Villa gravy train.

What the actual fact is: This entire interview is Gabby answering the questions that he was asked. Take your hate hat off. You're not twelve years old anymore. Gabby was great for Villa but ended it poorly. So what? I remember the highs far more than the lows. Gabby is a mature man now. He made his mistakes and fully well knows he did. The fact that he's still a proud supporter of AVFC makes all of the haters seem bitter and rather immature.

What an absolute melt of a fella!

Of course he’s a legend, he’s our top premier league goal scorer ever and scored loads of important goals, plus he scored nearly every time he played blues which automatically puts him up there. People only say he ain’t a legend because of his shit end to his career getting pissed up and not caring really, but on his day he was unplayable in that O’Neil side with Carew and Ashley Young

As a United fan I get it this has to change

Darius vessel was just as bad i use to see him out clubbjng in Birmingham whilst out injured ince saw him at club with his crutches. Gabby"s a bit more down to earth would see him in his local co op in sutton co feild shopping with his kids very approachable guy.

Great interview, interesting to hear Gabby talk about his off the pitch life. Landed on his feet with the finances and respect to him for realising how lucky he is and sticking to a budget. Still not understanding the love for Micah Richards, the man's an idiot. France, Portugal or Germany for the Euros. Sadly England have the Southgate factor.

Things I’ve heard recently about training / fitness regime under Martin O’Neill fills me with no surprise when villa always broke down in March or conceded late goals - disappointing to hear as a villa fan especially when success and failure is about fine margins- although Gabby was quality on his day I wouldn’t use “Legend” as a word to describe him - this is Aston Villa and bars need to be raised - in my opinion Paul McGrath was the last “legend” Villa had

Watkins 70 goals (and counting) in 4 seasons. Agbonlahor 87 goals in 13 seasons. What exactly is _legendary_ about those stats? 35:50 As he said he was a party guy since 18 and that's why we won nothing and he didn't either. Joe is exactly the same the only difference is he's being carried by actual elite footballers at city. He will get found out soon because for £100m his city stats are garbage.

Agbonlahor is not a legend. He was a pace merchant with a crap attitude. Granted, he scored a few goals, but he was nowhere near being the best player in any of the teams he played in & he is nowhere near "legend" status. The things that team could have achieved if we had a decent manager & players who didn't want time off every week so they could party in Vegas.

Is it easy to score in the Premiership?

@AndyDakin

15 күн бұрын

I imagine that depends on multiple factors. A players ability. Their teams ability. The attitude & work-rate of the player. The quality of the opposition. Etc, etc, etc. Its not as easy as saying, no its not easy scoring in the Premier League. What I will say about Agbonlahor, while he has the record number of Prem goals for the now, his goals to games ratio is quite poor. 1 goal in 4.5 games is nothing special. And I do not see why we only count Prem goals. There are plenty of strikers throughout Villas history that are way ahead of Agbonlahor in the goalscoring charts & most did it in less games. And thats without including his party-boy lifestyle. When you had James Milner going & asking Martin O'Neill for better training & tactics, while Agbonlahor was only going & asking for time off so they could party in Vegas, that right there tells the difference between a decent enough player in Agbonlahor, & a dedicated professional in Milner. If I had Agbonlahors ability, as limited as he was, & I played for the club I allege to support, I would not be taking time off during the week of games to travel to Vegas to party it up. I would knuckle down & try to make the most of my limited ability so that I can become a legend at my own club. And it is possible to be a limited player but be a legend due to your work rate & attitude. As the likes ofTony Daley & Ian Taylor prove...
