I think he'd crawl here on all fours to get the job. He's done a fine stint at everton so no-one (unless their a toffee) could accuse him of being disloyal and as has been mentioned unless he changes his name to Davide Moyinho he's got no chance of a top4 job. The chance to be pampered with a decent transfer budget and a new project would, I believe appeal.

I know lot of fans rate him and want him to be in Villa Park's hot seat.

What can he do for Aston Villa ? Just interested to know.

If MON had left sooner we would be discussing the why's and wherefores of Moyes first season at the club now. Of that I have no doubt.

I think it would have been Mark Hughes first season we would have been discussing.

I think now and this time next year we'd have been discussing both.

That's confused me.  Are you saying you think David Moyes and Mark Hughes will be co-managers of Villa this time next year?

I think Hughes woiuld have lasted a season and we'd have had Moyes this summer.

Maybe they could merge and we install former Villa defender David Hughes as manager?

That's a tad harsh on Mark Hughes

I predicted when we got Houllier that if it didn't work out we could end up with Moyes next Summer. It still wouldn't surpise me.

However, I'd prefer Coyle.

Is this just another thread where oodman is saying that he wants Houllier out?
Yes it is.  For a start nothing's kicking off at Everton, and everything said on this thread has been covered in "Who do you want".

Well if u read the papers they are all saying that he has no money to spend again and they plan on selling most of the top stars and moyes isn't happy

What, you mean unless another lass starts eyeing him up?

I know it's popular to lambast us as impatient, fickle types at the moment, so out of keeping with all other football fans in that regard. But  I reckon Hughes would have done a reasonable enough job so as not to merit  the (mostly justified) criticism that has come GH's way this season.  We'll never know, of course. Impossible to prove it either way.

 But any manager that had presided over the results and at times woeful level of performance that GH has would also be copping (Kop-ing?) plenty of flak.

Possibly a bit harsh on Moyes but after 9 years shouldn't he have got the club's finances under better control. It's not as if his parameters have changed during his stewardship.

In my mind the top managers grow the club in it's entirety (ferguson, wenger etc). In nine years moyes has not done this because he's either not developed a scouting or youth systems which fundamentally change the club. Basically he strikes me as being a good coach but not a great manager.

In many ways villa are similar to everton so I think we need a more revolutionary manager in charge. Arguably I think Houllier is closer to what we need.
