Gabriel Agbonlahor does not expect to be the next high-profile departure from the Aston Villa squad.

Agbonlahor has also had enough time to see similarities between Martin O'Neill, who made him a first-team regular, and Paul Lambert following the latter's arrival at Villa Park in the summer of 2012. "He had a spell with Martin so he's obviously picked up a few things," he said. "You can tell what he is like on the touchline, similar to what Martin was like when he was here, jumping up and down. "I think he is passionate about the game like Martin was. It can help, if you get that encouragement from the side especially with a lot of the younger lads."
