Aston Villa fans angry with El Ghazi’s display against Bournemouth

Anwar El Ghazi was handed a Premier League start by Aston Villa manager Dean Smith on Saturday.

Villa fell to a 2-1 defeat against the Cherries, despite the hosts being reduced to ten men in the second period.

The winger was hauled off after 58 minutes by Smith and was replaced by Keinan Davis. 

Many Villa fans were not impressed by the winger’s display at the Vitality Stadium and feel that he should drop back to the bench.

The 24-year-old has managed to score four goals and has also registered four assists in the top-flight this season (Transfermarkt). 

However, his last goal involvement was on the first day of December, netting in the 6-1 defeat against Manchester City.

Many fans feel that his form simply isn’t good enough to warrant a starting position, especially with the club in a fierce relegation battle at the moment.

These fans expressed their concerns on Twitter.
