‘Ego of Ronaldo & ability of Bellion’ – Agbonlahor tears into Garnacho
Gabby Agbonlahor has launched a scathing attack on Alejandro Garnacho, questioning both his attitude and ability ahead of the move from Chelsea to Aston Villa.
Gabby Agbonlahor has delivered a fierce assessment of Alejandro Garnacho, claiming the winger’s confidence far outweighs his performances during his time at Manchester United.
Speaking on talkSPORT, the former Aston Villa striker said Garnacho carries the ego of Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi but lacks the talent of former United forward David Bellion, who played for the club more than two decades ago.
Agbonlahor also pointed to Garnacho’s departure from Manchester United and Chelsea’s decision not to keep him as evidence of why the Argentina international has struggled to convince at the highest level.
He further noted that Garnacho was not selected for Argentina’s World Cup squad despite what he described as a shortage of wide attacking options.
The remarks were made during a discussion on talkSPORT, where Agbonlahor gave his assessment of Garnacho’s career trajectory as the player set to complete a season-long loan move to Aston Villa.
