Quote from: Toronto Villa on April 20, 2015, 01:20:31 AMAt some point we have stop worrying what Sherwood will be like in the long run. Not many managers last much more than 3-4 years now anyway. All that matters is that he has completely transformed the here and now.Quite. My main concern was what he would be like long-term. But with each passing day and the wheels staying on, the long-term matters less and less. Nearly every manager's tenure ends in anger and disappointment eventually, so it will happen - just as it would eventually happen with any manager we had hired. But it might as well be fun while we wait for it. And if we win on May 30th then he can have a free pass for the rest of his time with the club as far as I'm concerned.

I think what is amazing is in our past couple of games we have not nicked a win or absorbed a ton of pressure to attack on the break we have gone toe to toe with quality opposition. In todays game we were clearly and without any doubts the better team in a game which could have overawed many teams. It is gobsmacking really and I credit Sherwood. I mean, what else has changed? Just the manager. I remain grateful for Lamberts recruitment of some very good players but Sherwood has us playing with a swagger I have not seen for years.

He manages to win it, against the most in form side in the country and arguably one their day the best, with a side that he has not had a chance to even buy a player for and had managed 12 points from 21 games in the league, he should get the key to the city. It would be an incredible achievement and for all those that knock him, take the piss of his style and character, I really hope we do it. Lets get safe too first, which again considering the rabble he walked in to would be some achievement.
The long term didn't bother me in the slightest when he came in because we were playing so piss poorly, creating hardly anything in front of goal and had just rolled over to a terrible Hull side. We were in trouble and getting out of it was the main priority. He's been great since he's been here.
But there were a couple of blogs written by teenage Spurs fans and they said he was really rubbish and they didn't like him
To be fair, there were Villa fans who thought Lambert was doing a good job, so it's not that unusual Spurs fans don't agree on Sherwood.I don't know what will happen next season, but I don't really care right now. I just hope we can secure our safety soon!
The thing with Tim is that he genuinely seems to love his job, he has no affinity with Aston Villa but he acts like he's been a lifelong fan and he's just landed his dream job of managing his boyhood heroes.I love his enthusiasm, I love the way he reacts to every goal, I reckon I have a bit of man-love for him to be honest!
