There are players who take pressure well and others who need to escape from it to get the best of themselves. Anwar El Ghazi (Netherlands, 1995), is one of the second. Since he arrived at Aston Villa in the summer of 2019 for 9 million euros, from the Lille, the fans of the team of Birmingham they have always had him in their sights. His numbers last season left a lot to be desired for a man who came from France with the star band: six goals in 40 games are very few for someone who came to make a difference.
The disappointment on the part of the swollen villain with El Ghazi was increasing to the point that the extreme felt harassed by social networks and was forced to close his Twitter profile because he could not stand the internet 'trolls', who did not stop rebuke him.
Just a week ago, Tyrone mings, one of Villa's heavyweights, came out in defense of his teammate: “I hope that all the haters who have made El Ghazi have to erase the nets apologize, we are a team and we have to go all together.” His efforts to help his partner were in vain. “Let him win it in the field” said several anonymous responses on the networks to Mings' words. And so it has been. This week, without pressure or harassment from his critics, El Ghazi has shut up all the mouths of his detractors.
The Dutch winger played his best game since he was at Aston Villa and scored two goals in his team's victory against him. West Bromwich (0-3), which confirms the good league start of the villain team. His relatives assure in the British media that since he took off the nets, he feels calmer, more sure of himself. And it is that the fools, it is better to ignore them.
