Who do you want the next Villa manager to be?

[Toronto Villa]

So who do you want as the next Villa manager when as hoped Sherwood gets the boot next week? Given our circumstances and sense of urgency it's Rodgers or Moyes for me. I'll go for Rodgers.

[West Derby Villan]

Anyone that can restore an Aston Villa Identity that we all recognise

[KevinGage]

Go all out and offer Koeman double his salary.

Has shown he can rebuild a side that has lost its best players.  And a big salary to a competent manager over 3/4 years would still probably work out cheaper than hiring two to three numpties and paying them off during the same period.

Still no guarantee he would take it, but he was interested in the Villa job before. And Villa are bigger than Southampton ever could be.

Jesus I didn't want the thread to happen, but we are here, we need a manger with experience and a desire to sort the club out not just their wallet. Thus I want a "Vila man" in charge. I am wary of all outsiders .

[ciggiesnbeer]

Bielsa for me, although I have almost zero faith the club would ever aim that high.

I do also like the idea agressively going after proven quality like Koeman and for once acting like a big club by putting our money where our ambition is.

[passitsideways]

Jose Mourinho, obviously.

Yep I'd go for that. I don't think the board has the appetite to even entertain such a thought unfortunately.

Ok, own up.  Who has gone for Bob Bradley?

[Broughty-Villian]

de Boer
Laudrup
Bielsa
Bradley
Karanka
Klinsman


a manager that understands modern day football, and isn't British or "a Villa man"

[Damo70]

Jose Mourinho, obviously.

I was joking about that with the people around me at the game today but if Chelsea gave him the push  I reckon it must be worth a phone call. After all, he fits the criteria of a Villa manager. He doesn't win many games at Villa Park.

Very good

[Axl Rose]

Klinsmann for me. Doubt it'll happen though

[pbavfckuwait]

Any fucker who can organise and tactically make a team aware, get them fit for 95 minutes football and if that guy comes from Tim Buck Two, I do not give a monkeys, this crap he must be a Villa man is exactly that, what he must be is competent.

[preston28]

I have sbsolutely no idea! The problem is that we need a miracle worker to turn things round. I actually think if we change the manager will be rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic. I think we are dead on for relegation so we need a manager who can get us back from the championship pretty damn quick.

From that list I would go for Dyche or Rogers.

[Steve67]

Mark Hughes. Has done well pretty much anywhere he has been. A couple of blips if you look close enough but a reliable Manager who makes teams solid. He might also like a few of our players. Right now, I'd be happy with solid and harder to beat. Not everyone's cup of tea but I doubt we'd ever completely agree. Like others have said on here, I really want us to compete and be ruthless with the next choice, steal them away from their club.
