He was used to being the 'Main Man' at Wigan, at Villa there are several in front.
You're right, Brian, in saying that his primary role is to supply Bent and Gabby.

He's clearly way off in his fitness levels.

Didn't see the substitution reaction. What did he do? Boot the dugout, go face to face with Sid and have a rant, chuck his shirt on the floor?

He muttered to himself in what looked like frustration at his performance and/or being subbed off.

I reckon you'd have to be wanting to see something to read anything more into it than that.

Too early to write him off but  so far he's been very underwhelming.

Agree. His body language doesn't seem right to me

Still you never know he may be fit by Xmas

Who would have thought it what with him being a professional athlete

I think we bought him because he takes players on rather than passing. At least that would be the sensible thought given that he dribbled twice as often as Downing and Young did last season.

It's inevitable that players like that will lose possession at times isn't it? He needs to get to know a new system and new players which will take a little time but shouldn't take forever.

It's good he was disappointed to be taken off, he probably feels it's a slight against him, who wouldn't in the heat of the moment?

Give him time, how on earth anyone can think he's a waste of money less than a month into his Villa career is beyond me.

The fact that anyone French who has turned up at the Villa has flopped massively is a trend that is going to be bucked by N'Zogbia.Starting against Newcastle we'll see a real player.By the way i'm basing this on nothing but blind optimism.........

Didn't he score twice at St James last season?  Whilst being booed by the Newcastle fans all game. A bit of abuse from the travelling geordies might spur him on to reach the top of his game.

Here's hoping!

Lets hope  ;) May the geordies boo him at will, at least until he slams in the second.

Nzog has only played a handful of games judge him on a season if at all. Scored against braga people loving it  and now this!
People here need to understand football better. 
He was delayed in pre season fitness and is getting upto speed plus another poster has made good and obvious point hes adapting to new team and style. At the end of day hes not ash young but he is charles nzogbia.
