It just doesn’t make sense” -Gabriel Agbonlahor alleges favouritism as he blasts England coach Gareth Southgate for snubbing Aston Villa star in latest Three Lions squad
Former Aston Villa star and pundit Gabriel Agbonlahor has blasted England national team manager Gareth Southgate for snubbing Aston Villa midfielder Jacob Ramsey in his latest Three Lions squad.
The 22-year-old was one of the Villans’ standout players in the 2022/23 Premier League season, and Jones thinks Unai Emery has to keep evolving his team to keep him at the club.
While Ramsey had a good campaign, there isn’t really any transfer interest in him right now.
The Villa star has also been snubbed by Gareth Southgate for England’s upcoming fixtures, something that hasn’t gone down well with Gabby Agbonlahor.
“[Conor] Gallagher hasn’t scored many goals this season; he’s got three. Zero goal contributions in the Champions League,” the former Villans striker recently told Football Insider. “It just doesn’t make sense why he’s in the squad. He’s got a good engine, but this is Malta and Macedonia — England can experiment.
“Ramsey is the first name on the team sheet for the Under-21s, why not reward him? He’s playing week in, week out in the Premier League and scoring goals.”
