thing is Houllier is the manager its his coaching staff his regime and sadly Mon's squad.Many of us suggested it wasn't good enough to cope with too many injuries to key players and that's how its panned out, but Houllier has the job and if it goes sour its his fault. Yes there are all sorts of mitigating circumstances for which I mostly blame Mon, but its Houllier who carries the blame if it goes wrong and no matter how much we don't like thosse who dare criticise they have every right to if they must.
We have no choice but to stick with Houllier. It would be madness to sack him peremptorily even if he gets us relegated which I truly believe he may well do.HOWEVER. I do not think he should have been chosen as our manager in the first place.The single most overwhelming principle in the achievement of success in any kind of venture is that you invest in tomorrow not yesterday.
I don't think he'll do much more than mid-table. I think perhaps that might be why the senior players seem so out of sorts.

Most Villa fans are waiting to see what he does in the January transfer window before forming an opinion.Until then, he's not been able to have much of a say in shaping his won team together, and injuries to so many key players is against him.God knows how we'd be doing if MON was in charge with so many players out.
