Latest press conference Sherwood revealed he was still looking for a right hand man. Didn't want someone for the short term .

Could be we won't see anyone in until the summer.

Are we also trying to recruit a DOF at the moment?

Was it just me, or that Tony Fernandes interview on SSHQWTFOMG sounded very much like Ramsay is probably going to be there for the longer haul. I only copped a couple of minutes of it though.

Timehhh mentioned 'the Krypton Factor!'

I was a little underwhelmed at the appointment but this guy just gets better and better. No seriously, I'm happy he referenced that show.

Yesterday Ramsey dismissed teaming up again with Sherwood. He's more than happy at QPR.

He'll change his tune if he gets binned in the summer. I imagine one half big name out in the summer and Fernandes will go for it.

Anyone know who the 1st team coach is at Chelseas without looking it up?

Why would we care?  Caring about who our coaches are doesn't mean we have to know every coach at other clubs.

Now Sherwood on the other hand should know about most of the coaches at most of the clubs in the top 2-3 leagues and should have an idea of which he could work with who can complement his weaknesses because it's part of his job to know that.

The fans are interested this time because we've had 2 1/2 years of being woefully short of coaching and it has shown on the pitch, so expecting the new manager to sort that out is perfectly reasonable.

That and there's not been much on the pitch to talk about for a while.

Ex-Arsenal great reveals he would consider Villa coaching role

Former Arsenal defender Martin Keown has told the Daily Mail that he would consider a coaching role at Aston Villa if it were offered to him by new manager Tim Sherwood.

Although Keown says that he is enjoying his media commitments at the moment, he admits that the chance to play a more hands-on role again would be an appealing one.

"I don't think you should ever say never," he responded when asked whether he would take a Villa coaching role in one of his weekly 'TackleKeown' sessions. "If someone wants to offer you the chance to go back in the game you have to look at it.

"I always envisaged I would go back, but the longer it goes on the less likely it seems. I couldn’t fit it in now, with all my media work. the choice would have to be made. But I wouldn't dismiss it.

"I was with Villa in the 80s and we were relegated in my first season. It’s a huge club with a huge history. If the call came, I’d think about it."

Sherwood was only appointed as Villa manager last week, but he has already begun to make wholesale changes to the backroom staff at the Midlands side.

Villa parted ways with Scott Marshall this week, meaning that goalkeeping coach Andy Marshall is the only member of Paul Lambert's coaching team who remains at the club.

Sherwood has brought in Mark Robson and Seamus Brady to work alongside him so far and it seems that more arrivals will occur in the future.

Whether one of those will be Keown remains to be seen, but Sherwood may wish to consider it now that the ex-Gunner has seemingly admitted he would be interested.

Keown has coached at Arsenal whilst studying for his badges and his experience of playing at the top level could be considered vital by Sherwood.
