'Stocky' Agbonlahor told to lay off the weights

[N'ZMAV]

Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor has been told by manager Gerard Houllier to lay off lifting weights. The 24-year-old was told by previous boss Martin O'Neill to bulk up but Houllier says: "Sometimes players do too much. He's not in the gym now. The fact is, I think he should stop, he's too stocky."

Recently Gabby has looked like he could put up a better showing in the ring than Audley Harrison

I think wee Bannan would've put up a better showing than Fraudly.

Good.

[SO Villa]

Fair enough, but does this need to be announced publicly? Houllier seems to have a little dig at a different player each week.

[Can Gana Be Bettered!?!?]

Vidic couldn't get around him because he's so strong. Can't see it being a bad thing. He's still fast.

[N'ZMAV]

He's fast & fat, he's fast & faaaaaaattttt

I don't think he's having a dig at all, Just telling him to lay off the weights, Simple really

Gabby needs to stand next to Dunne a bit more, he'll look like Jarvis Cocker then.

It might be the answer as Agbonlahor haven't deliver the good this season despite being out with injuries. It might help to cut down injuries.

Delivered tge goods??? He hasn't played one game fully fit yet. He was superb against Man U.

I think We should put Bannan on a weights program.

I can think of a fair few Spanish players who aren't that big. It doesn't seem to affect them too much I think Wee Barry Bannnan is doing just grand

Most Olympic sprinters are very muscular so I dont see it being that big a deal.
But they'll know best at Bodymoor how his training is affecting him.

He needs pace and strength. He has them in abundance.
