I hope he listens to Houllier and he lightens up. His strength is brilliant to have but his raw pace is what scared defenders and made them fear him. I think he's got a lot more to show for the Villa

I think he's a much better player since he bulked up.

I think he's really really improved over the last 2 years. He's simply not been fit enough to get a good run of games this season, and probably won't have a run over 10-15 starts till next season. He doesn't need to improve his finishing. And probably have more shots.

My favourite villa player when he's on form. I love watching him skin defenders and he's true villa. I would like to see him on the left of a front three a-la Chelsea. Agbonlahor-heskey-young/albrighton

Gabby on the left is bareable away from home as we don't attack much and his pace is useful to stop opponent's attacks but christ almight play him through the bleeding middle in home games.

We used him to effectively nulify Phil Bardsley's attacks down the right tonight ffs.

Why play him on the left? GH is a idiot.

James Milner has more league goals for us this season then Gabby.

Give Gabby the right service and he'll score. Playing him on the left is a complete waste of talent. Hopefully now with Heskey out for three games, Houllier will wake up to see the goalscorer we so desperately need.
