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.
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.
Been a supporter for 50 years and have seen some poor playersbut nothing like the present bunch where the main issue is attitudetop of the league of worst player ever has to be Lescott because hefails in all areas of expectation.
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.
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.
