Former Aston Villa striker Gabby Agbonlahor believes “the pressure is off” Steven Gerrard after their victory against Southampton. Questions had been asked about the 42-year-old’s position as, before the result, Villa had won just twice in their last 11 Premier League games.
Leeds United are unbeaten in their last three trips to Villa Park going into Sunday’s clash. A thrilling 3-3 draw in February saw the Whites snatch a point from two goals down.
Speaking to Football Insider, Agbonlahor - a lifelong Villan - insisted Gerrard can relax slightly now the tension has been lifted. The ex-striker also highlighted how teams have previously won trophies despite not playing attractive football.
