GABBY AGBONLAHOR has brutally snubbed Mason Mount and two Champions League winners when picking his combined Manchester United and Aston Villa XI.
The former Villa star selected his combined team from the two clubs on talkSPORT, and managed to include more Villa players than Man United players.

Here is the team Agbonlahor picked
In goal, Agbonlahor decided to opt for Villa’s Wold Cup winner Emiliano Martinez over United’s new boy Andre Onana.
As he claimed that Martinez is “the best goalkeeper in the world”.
The backline saw United edge out Villa with three players taking up the four spots with Luke Shaw and Lisandro Martinez making up the left side of the defence, while Aaron Wan-Bissaka took the right-back role.
However, this is where Agbonlahor snubs his first Champions League winner in Raphael Varane.
The retired striker opted for Villa’s Ezri Konsa over the former Real Madrid star.
On to the midfield, despite hailing another Champions League winner Casemiro as a “very good player” he instead chose Douglas Luiz and John McGinn as his duo in the middle of the part.
This meant that the likes of summer signing Mason Mount, Christian Eriksen, Fred, and Scott McTominay all missed out.
United did get one player into the midfield as Bruno Fernandes was picked to play in a “free role” ahead of Emiliano Buendia.

For his front line, Agbonlahor picked Marcus Rashford on the left and new Villa signing Moussa Diaby on the right.
Upfront, he went for Villa ace Ollie Watkins over Rasmus Hojlund, as he “is unproven in the Premier League”.
When Darren Bent – who also is a former Villa striker – pointed out that Mount had been left out of the team, Agbonlahor claimed: “He doesn’t even make the bench mate.
“No, he is the last sub on the bench, Mount is nowhere near making that team, are you joking? McGinn is outstanding.”
