Remi Garde slams this Aston Villa star for performance against Wycombe

REMI GARDE has slammed Aston Villa youngster Jack Grealish for failing to impress against Wycombe last night.

 

Remi Garde hits out at Jack Grealish

 

The Villa manager watched his team struggle against the League Two side in the FA Cup before winning the third-round replay 2-0 courtesy of late goals.

Wycombe had more than held their own against Villa, a side consisting of nine changes from the draw against Leicester at the weekend, and created the better chances before Ciaran Clark headed home with 15 minutes remaining.

 

Substitute Idrissa Gana sealed a fourth-round home tie against Manchester City at the end of the month with a second goal in the final minute.

Clark's opener came within two minutes of Grealish, fit again after a fortnight out with tonsillitis, being substituted.

"You saw the game," said Garde. "Jack started and it was his first for quite a long time now, but I haven't seen exactly what I wanted to see from him tonight.

 

Remi Garde disappointed with Aston Villa players despite win

 

"I know he has played in the part of the game when we were not good collectively, when we were disappointing for the first hour or so. 

"But then we started to play more collectively and simple. It's not only about Jack; I was not happy with the way the team played the first hour."
