MON signed some good players, and signed some absolutely horribly shit players some of whom are still here picking up a wage somehow. If anything it's probably blotted his CV forever. Nobody really wants Marlon Harewood or Habib Beye if they can help it, even if they're an imbecile.

I think we can still attract a decent manger, but I've just drunk three bottles of wine so what do I know, eh? EH?

Because he isn't a fucking ****** who walked out on us and in the words of someone on here coudn't have caused more damage if he'd set fire to Bodymoor.

His Signings were sh!te..

Good:

Carew
Friedel
Downing
Delph

Indifferent:

Petrov
Cueller
Davies
Collins
Dunne

Bad:
Zat
Maloney
Agathe
Sutton
Heskey
Bardsley
Kiraly
Routledge
Salifou
Harewood
Reo-Coker
Sidwell
Brad Guzan
Shorey
L Young
Beye
Warnock

I havent included Milner & young because even my gran could have spotted their talent. And it was Randy who paid over the odds to get them in anyway.
 


That a bit harsh!!.  But that only highlights the miracle of qualifying for europe, finishing 6th, LC winners (but for referee decision) and with IYO, such so called bad signings!!

Being objective Dave would you say that MON did a good job at Villa in the time he was here, before he left us in the shit?

real world Irishvillain - he's taken the club to a tribunal after leaving and is apparently 'very pleased' with the result.   In what galaxy is that a basis for, 'come home Martin, all is forgiven?'

He did okay. Given that he enjoyed the best conditions any Villa manager ever has, he was good but not spectacularly so. The way he left and his legacy ruin it.

If MON is pleased with the result of the tribunal would that not indicate that he was somehow vindicated? That's not my belief it's a genuine question.

Oooooooh the short memories of how great things were under DoL and that famous banner saying how much we loved him. Things really must have took a real dive when MON came along.

real world - i said we cant even attract a manger of MON'S standing now

if we wanted to speak with Martinez - thats backing up my point

the op was would you want him back? i said yes

for what he done before he left - of course i would


i know it wasnt a real question and randy wasnt clearing the ground for his return

Nobody's mentioned O'Leary.

How many times does it have to be explained? He did okay. He left us in circumstances designed to cause maximum damage.

I think he is pointing out that we improved under MON after the previous manager, who happened to be David O'Leary, was a disaster.

EDIT:  But then, as Dave says, he left us at the worst possible time and so will go down in history as being as much of a pr**K as DOL in many peoples view.
