Charles N’Zogbia has made a meal of a Twitter spat with an Aston Villa fan - by offering to take her out for dinner.

The Villa outcast has promised to treat Kirsten Taylor at a restaurant next week following an exchange on social media.

Kirsten, 24, a Villa Park season ticket holder, sent an angry tweet to N’Zogbia after being annoyed by a story about him.

The French winger, who has been banished to train with the under-21s after falling out of favour, responded with the offer of a free meal.

“I read a story about him saying he was going to see out his contract and pick up his money and it annoyed me,” said Kirsten.

“I sent him a tweet saying he was a fraud and then I got involved in a Twitter conversation with him and his friend.

“After a few messages I said to his friend, let’s try to end this amicably, I’ll leave it alone if he takes me out for a meal!

“It was only meant as a joke but his friend sent a screen-shot of the message to N’Zogbia who tweeted: ‘Let’s do it’.”

Kirsten, who lives in Leamington Spa, watches home matches in the Trinity Road Upper with her dad Len and also watches Villa away regularly.

She admits the claret and blue faithful are aggravated by N’Zogbia continuing to pick up £65,000 per week wages despite being nowhere near the first team.

The former Newcastle and Wigan wideman’s contract runs out in the summer and Kirsten reckons the meal offer will be a positive farewell.

“He has started following me on Twitter and sent me a message saying he will arrange something for next week,” she added.

“He’s not the most popular player with the way things have worked out and he gets a lot of abuse.

“It’s been tough watching Villa in the last few years, so I don't think I'll be offering to split the bill!"
