We need to clarify the thread title here I think.  There's a difference between footballer (player) and human attitude.  We've had many terrible footballers in our time but most always tried and gave their best but, very few with the stinking attitude we are witnessing at present. 

Agree Dave. There is the issue between those who try but are useless and those (current a"*holes) who have the talent but can't be bothered. To me they are worse and are lower in my estimation.

Kozak, for as much as he tries is dog shit. No technical ability whatsoever.

Application : Agbonlahor. The guy was always a shit footballer, but he was quick and he stretched teams and allowed others room to play, and therefore was worth more than his goal return. Lugging around an extra 20 pounds and he's a waste of a squad number (and £60k/week)

Talent : Sanchez. Seriously. He's a terrible footballer. I do not understand how you can misplace a 10 yard pass by 5 yards or more on such a regular basis and still get paid. It's basics. His performance against Arsenal last season was a one man wrecking ball against his own team - I've never seen anything like it.

Only read a few pages, but cannot believe David Geddis gets a mention. This is a bloke who came in to a local derby and scored two against the noses and what about Southampton game?

I can accept limited ability but not lack of desire and this season many of the players have certainly lacked that. I despise bad attitudes and many have shown that this season and Bacuna for instance banging on about champions league is a joke. I wouldn't choose a worst player football wise but attitude wise I am going for Lescott. I have stuck up for him on here, been proved wrong. Spitting chewing gum in a cup game as a laugh is so not right and some of his comments have been awful. This is from a supposedly massive Villa fan and makes it worse. I would also lob Agbonlahor in. He is a disgrace. Heard Wilkins talking the other day saying he had a word with him re weight and was told not to worry, I am fine, ignoring him. Shite attitude but getting paid so hey

Agree 100% on Sanchez. I know he has his supporters on this site but every time I've seen him play there have been at least 5 incidents per match when I've shouted 'why the fuck did you do that?!'

Been a supporter for 50 years and have seen some poor players
but nothing like the present bunch where the main issue is attitude
top of the league of worst player ever has to be Lescott because he
fails in all areas of expectation.

A friend who is a Newcastle fan texted me on Sunday after watching the Villa game and said "Newcastle may be rubbish but Lescott is a disgrace and should never be allowed to play for Villa again".
He actually felt sorry for Villa having so many players who don't care, but singled out Lescott.

Other than winning the ball in the air, I don't think I've seen a player so laughably bad at all other aspects of the game as Rudy Gestede.

Other than the 110% factor  Alan Hutton - would never call him  however.

Would hate to see Geddis in this present team, he would probably be awful.    This is always going to be a difficult one, Chico was great for us until we reached the First Division and was like a cat in water, same for Ian Ross and Cumbes.

We have had the likes of Callaghan, Hodge, Sanchez, Neil Rioch, Aspinall, the Frenchman Six, Bradley, Glover but for pure showing compared to how good he thinks he is, I give you Bacuna - a total pile of cows dune.

I have supported Villa for 50 years and boy have I seen some crap.
David Hunt was awful, but he did a job when we last went down, John Inglis was a terrible player, and Bobby Park wasn't much better, but, for me, for the terrible attitude, lack of leadership and just inept comedy defending my award for the worst Villa player I have ever seen has to go to Michah Richards.

One of those spelling mistakes that turns out to be appropriate in the case of this fucking clown.

And I agree.

I can accept a lack of talent and skill, if the effort is there. So that allows for the likes of Westwood, Sanchez, Gestede to not get my vote. This current crop of wa**ers, Lescott, Richards, Agbonlahor,and their piss poor attitude and not wanting to play, really galls me.
The one individual who i really cannot stand is Charles N'Zogbia, a complete prick who brings shame on himself and his family for his attitude. I hate to think of these tossers influencing any of our younger players like Grealish, Hepburn Murphy etc.
The sooner these mercenaries are out of our club the better.

I've probably written this at some point earlier in this thread, but David Hunt is the worst player I've ever seen for Villa. He didn't do a job for us in the second division, he can only have played around 10 times and was quickly ditched by SGT.
