Newcastle's Kieran Trippier hits back at Gabby Agbonlahor after recent criticism

Kieran Trippier has fired back at Gabby Agbonlahor after the former Aston Villa striker recently criticised him for travelling with the Newcastle squad to away games while he is out injured.

The England full-back broke his foot in Newcastle's 1-0 win against Aston Villa last month, but was pictured in the team's dressing room 13 days later after Eddie Howe's side cruised to a 2-0 victory at Brentford.

After seeing the image, Agbonlahor questioned Trippier's decision to stay with the team, despite being unavailable to play.

'People will see that as amazing because he's supporting the team but I see it as silly,' he told Football Insider.
