Former Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor has detailed a bust-up he had with Celtic hero Paul Lambert while he was in charge of the club.
The ex-Scotland international managed the Premier League side from 2012-15 during which Agbonlahor was the captain.
And the 36-year-old opened up on one particular incident with Lambert. He told talkSPORT: "There was one time where me and Paul Lambert had a thing on the training pitch.
"Basically, with the GPS tracker, strikers would normally get the lowest in training and I was just frustrated.
"I done these runs and I ran and done these runs as quick as possible, just to prove a point that I was fit, no problem.

“And something about him, he was angry about it. So anyway, the train session was done, I put my bib down and walked in.
"He walked after me and said, ‘In the office you’, in that angry Scottish accent. We got in the office and we had it out.
“Next training session he was like, ‘Well done Gabby, well done that’. I was captain and never missed a game afterwards.
“Sometimes you can have that big bust up and clear the air talk and afterwards I was like his favourite player.”
