Gabriel Agbonlahor has reignited his long-running spat with Roy Keane after revealing the circumstances surrounding his Aston Villa departure. The two Premier League pundits have exchanged sharp words over the years, with Keane previously branding certain players at Villa "scumbags" during his spell there.
Agbonlahor, 39, had been part of the first-team Villa set-up for nearly a decade by the time Keane joined Paul Lambert's backroom staff in 2014. He described one episode towards the end of Keane's tenure in October of that year when the Manchester United legend hurled a Red Bull can into the showers in anger, claiming such methods "don't work."
It was the following week where the pair clashed in training after the Villa players failed to execute a drill properly. And Agbonlahor, who was one of Lambert's captains, fell afoul of Keane when he defended the squad.
Speaking on In The Mixer, brought to you by Sky Bet, Agbonlahor said: "We done this training session where the whole team's doing a crossing and shooting session but [it's] six or seven passes before you get like a cross in a shot. The standard wasn't great but you're taking one shot every 10 minutes, so the players are getting cold.
