McLeish could be the manager to take this club forward

[pauliewalnuts]

Tbf most of our games this season have been won by individual brilliance....Gabby at home to Wigan, Alrighton at Bolton, Ireland at Chelsea and Keane in the second half today. I'd still say McLeish's poor tactics have contributed to us not winning more games this season.

That said it was a brave call to take off Gaby and bring on Warnock but one McLeish got bang on so well done to him for that.

Gabby went off because he was sick.

The answer to the headline question from me is 'no', but he's Lerner's appointment to keep us in the Prem.

Great win yesterday mind, and a great game of football !

Again, a very selective analysis. We were all over Bolton, for instance, and if Bent had taken his chances would have won by a distance. We defended very well at Chelsea and then hit them with well worked counter attacks. You could also argue that individual errors have cost us in other games, Swansea and Everton most recently. It really is so difficult for many of you to give McLeish why credit and even when you do it's very grudging.

I think it's because of a need to provide an judgement of him after every single game, instead of waiting to see how things pan out over the course of a season. See where 38 games leaves us, then we might be able to more fully assess his worth.

Facebook group Aston-Villa-Supporters-We-dont-want-Alex-McLeish, who’s fan base is fast approaching 14,000 within just 48 hours is calling for all Villa fans to protest tomorrow at 6pm.

We need to show the Board that Villa supporters believe Alex McLeish should not be considered for the vacant managers position and the Board should widen its search for a candidate that echoes the fans values and aspirations for the club.

So......I'm not the only one who doesn't want him.

Strange as it may seem, all 14,000 of them had appointments at the dermatologists that very afternoon.

Should not be considered for the vacant managers position...

Think you're a bit behind the times, JizzyD.

[Merv]

Yes, that was 14,000 at the time when some fans thought a protest could change or influence the club's decision. There'd be a lower interest now, I think. Some will have perhaps changed their minds about McLeish.

Still deserves credit for replacing him with Warnock - it wasn't the most obvious swap.  Keeping Clark on and shifting him to midfield was also a good move.

And what about  Mcleish's substitutions at Chelsea?  People at the time were givinig him credit because they were so positive.

You have got friends. Don't persecute yourself. Your posts are the highlight of the week now that Compass has gone.

I'm no McLeish fan and I didn't think he helped himself by admitting he stumbled into the half time swaps which turned the course of the game, he should have kept schtum and let everyone think it was done after much contemplation.

No change here from the day he was appointed, answer is no and despite the fact that there seems to be some respite because we beat Wolves, laugh emote, confident we will be back at square one before to many more drab performance.

The bigger picture is without doubt a season of negative performances in most games, some outstanding weak defensive displays, a top striker that can't score for love or money, and the fact that in my opinion we will be fighting the drop along with another 6 or 7 teams in the Premiership this season.

Who said Gabby was sick and if this is a genuine reason and not some spiel put out by the club then why did McLiesh make such a radical move like swapping a forward with a defender, he made that move at that time because something had to be done, put another way, had we lost that game not even Mr Chris Smith could have given his support behind that little ditty of a move, fortunately for AM it worked in the end but even then there where many other circumstances that influenced the game such as playing a poor team down to 10 men.

[Chris Smith]

A top striker who can't score for love nor money? So how as he managed 8 this season?

Your just like Dazzyg without the .........s, you just cannot accept anything positive about the manager such is your blinkered obsessive dislike.

As for Gabby, have a look for his comments today about how happy he is at Villa and that it's the club he wants to be it, then try to find a way to distort it to your conspiracy theory.

The biggest influence on the game was surely AM's signing, Robbie Keane, scoring two cracking goals.

Also how can something that is your opinion be a fact?
