Next manager?

[Damo70]

Gary Rowett might be available soon without us having to pay any compensation.

I’d take Terry, if working under an established DoF and supported by a decent coaching team.

Agree, I think that's the best option - anywhere.
A perfect fit.

I'd be hoping for a good calibre European coach.  We seem to only go for two types of manager recently; the absolute newbie, cutting his teeth for the first time, or the dinosaur. Neither is the right option for me.

I couldn't name a name, but would hope for someone who has managed for a decade, had success in building up a club with an ethos we can absorb and continue on with. The personality to carry the weight of expectation at Villa and unite the club. Maybe I'm asking too much. Other clubs seem to manage it from time to time.

I’d take him, purely to sack the wanker before his first game. Cannot bear the bloke.

You just knew his big move to Stoke was going to turn to shit. Or at least I hope it does.

[Dante Lavelli]

Watching BT Sport and Hoddle just said, with reference to Wolves and Fulham, that management has changed since his era.  He said that "clarity" on a style of play is of paramount importance and getting stuck in is not enough anymore.  Not often I agree with him but that screams true and would be a good blueprint for selecting the next manager.

The only time I can recall us appointing a manager who could be classed as an absolute 'newbie' with no previous managerial experience he won us the European Cup.

Don't have a stand out favourite but it simply needs to happen otherwise it will be a wasted season.

[Lsvilla]

It’ll be Thierry Henri. Hopefully with Arsene or another similar DoF to help him - but pretty sure it will be Thierry. To be honest after today I don’t care that he has zero experience the mentality just needs to be changed. We have the best front 6 in the division and play like we’re scared of losing.

Agree.  It's a level of football knowledge that is beyond me but this fella is available and the CV reads well.  Ingolstadt and RB Leipzig being two clubs he has managed over the past few years which appear to have grown whilst he was there.

Terry's got even less experience than Henry.

[OzVilla]

Yep it’s time now. Would’ve done it in the international break but we never seem to be ahead of the curve.  Brendan Rogers would be my preferred choice but anyone but Bruce now quite frankly. Over his constant excuses and deflection.  This league is shit but we’re treading water.

100% this.  We're Aston Fucking Villa!  We shouldn't be a training ground for the likes of Henry or Terry, nor should we be settling for the likes of David Moyes or Sam Allardyce who are just plumping up their retirement pots.

Be ambitious and take a punt on someone with the right ethos, who's proven themselves elsewhere.  I appreciate it didn't pan out quite how we wanted it to but weren't we the first top flight English club to appoint a manager from outside the UK & Ireland in Dr Jo?

We've got a squad that any other team in the division would willingly swap us for coupled with the 3rd richest owners in English football.  That's a pretty good sell to any manager.  Go and get the right guy and lets twat this fucking league!
