Would you be happy with Ole Gunnar Solskjær? Now with added poll.

[PaulWinch again]

I'm pretty convinced he wants the job, most of us on here want him to have the job. This could unite the club as a whole Randy, offer him the job please.

[JUAN PABLO]

Hopefully get a lot more Norweigian's  ( that dont look right ) posters on here , If he comes . 

[Dave Javu]

Takk.

My Norwegian is really coming along.

To repeat my earlier belief, I would be very surprised if he wasn't our first choice and the job wasn't his for the asking.

[JUAN PABLO]

Lar hop Ole er den nye Aston Villa manager. spennende tider

Yes it would be very strange to fly someone over in a private jet with his wife if things weren't a bit beyond an 'informal chat'.

Three days before his club play a league match.

For some reason I am excited about this and I don't know why. I also don't know why people are so against it. We want a young up and coming manager that plays the game the right way, OGS ticks all the boxes. If he had just won the championship no one would care about his lack of experience and would be saying its an inspired appointment.

Guardiloa had only managed the Barcelona B team in the spanish lower leagues when he took over. I know their squad is 100 times better than ours but so is the expectation.

For me experience does not come into it, if he is the right man for the job and has a vision for the club and how football should be played then give him a go. He will surround himself with the right people which is one of the most important things for a modern day manager.

I hope he has not been told the Kevin Mac and Sid have to form part of the back room staff, they have both done a great job with the youth and reserve teams and Sid is a legend and gave me many great moment watching him from the Holte End but the club cannot be sentimental at a time like this. If the boards number 1 choice, who ever that may be, says he will only take the job if he can decide on all the backroom staff then so be it. No one man is bigger than the club.

Firstly, not many people are against it, even me.
Secondly, a word of caution. Bringing in someone like this brings risk with it; a risk we may be wise to take. However, I would think it a risk too far to consider dispensing with Sid and Kevin. Unless you meant them dropping back to reserve level / youth level, which I would agree with if the manager has a good enough management team of his choice.

I have never thought Sid wanted to get to the top of management and is happier as an advisor and working with the younger players where there is less pressure to win.  In this role he can help to develop players in the way he used to play the game.

KM is a difficult one.  He had the taste of the big time, although only for a short time.  The media keep on saying he throws his hat into the ring every time the position becomes available but this could be just speculation.  How much influence he had with McLeish last season, it is difficult to know with Grant being there and, afterall, Grant was McLeish's man.

The make up of the team management structure is complex with a big PL club.  With a manager, assistant manager, 1st team coach, specialist coaches etc., there is no set who does what and it depends on the personalities.  Some are good motivators, some good tacticians, some good organisers and some have an eye for spotting things.

I do not see KM moving back to Reserve Team coach without being heavily involved with 1st team coaching in some capacity.  By the looks of OGS's set up at Molde, he has quite a few coaches so, if he comes, it could be quite an open structure.

Could KM move up to a DOF.  He would have to grow into the position as he doesn't have the experience in the things like transfer matters but it could work.

[Brend'Watkins]

I like Norwegians. I like Norwegian Villa supporters and I think I will like our soon to be Norwegian Villa manager.

Once he signs I will celebrate with a meal consisting of herring. 

[Mazrim]

And I will burn a church.

[damon loves JT]

And I will stay up all night fishing for cod

[PaulWinch again]

Whilst I don't want Kmac or Sid to go, if the new manager decides they need to then so be it. Ideally I'd like them to be involved, but we can't really have any room for sentiment if they don't want the roles they could be offered.

[old man villa fan]

And I will burn a church.

And I will burn my mother in law on a funeral pyre.  Shit, already done that.  What can I do?

[dave.woodhall]

And I shall greet our hordes of new Norwegian supporters in my time-honoured fashion.
