Again with that quote, I wonder if he stops and thinks about this shit before he says it?A mini pre-season? Why is that needed in terms of fitness just six weeks or so after the end of actual pre season?What were they doing over the summer?
All down to fitness apparently Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood: We weren't good enough. I think both teams were average at best."A draw would have been a fair result, but the situation is getting a lot worse. There's ifs, buts and maybes, but that's why we're near the bottom of the league."I can give the fans assurances that we will work as hard as we can. The fans want to be entertained and see the team win."I don't think we've got a squad fit enough to play the way I want to play. We'll use the international break to get a min pre-season into some of them."
Very early days but I reckon Jimmy Floyd Hasselbank could turn out to be a decent manager, done great stuff at Burton.
"the next challenge in a top European league"
