Poll - Sherwood - got rid

[Sexual Ealing]

The main problem I have with Sherwood is that he does not have a Law degree.

Yes! Now this feels like a movement.

Take this as you will, but I heard this morning that the club have already put feelers out for their preferred candidate to replace Sherwood, and it's not Rodgers.

Let's hope it's Moyes. He'll sort this mess out.

Agreed with bells on.

Never has a manger been more suited or qualified to undertake the job of propelling Aston Villa up the table.

What's the point in firing Sherwood and hiring his patron, prototype and Over-Master Redknapp? That's like firing Saruman and hiring Sauron - 'well orcs weren't working so we got more orcs.'

Surely the stripeys have already gone down the orc route?
Well they've got Azog the Defiler (of football) in charge.

I think Azog the Defiler has a bit more aesthetic feeling than Tony Pulis - that shapely blade-hand of his shits all over the horrible tracksuit and the unbelievable baseball cap.

To be fair Azog the Defiler was better looking than Pulis, even after he was decapitated. And he certainly had a better grasp of tactics for attacking.

Can people stop trolling this thread?

I am see how that would irk you, somewhat.
I am extremely sympathetic.


As for the Villa, I want success and a manager that delivers.

I wish it was Sherwood.

No thanks.

Fair enough, but surely our problems dwarf a few puns.

All these pun-a-thons are bad for my elf.

I wouldn't be against Moyes
But it has all the hallmarks of a Lambert appointment about it

I know Lambert didn't have the number if years of premiership stability, but he was the obvious choice, backed and welcomed by the fans, Scottish, a tad boring, and came with a fanfare of how better times were coming back to VP , just like it would be if Moyes came

There is really no imagination involved, maybe we don't want that this time but it's a Lambo appointment for me as in it seems meant to be

[Sexual Ealing]

Neil Warlock. Anyone?

Is everyone just goblin up the obvious puns here?

My one reservation about Moyes is that I'm not sure he would be able to get the best out of our creative players: Ayew, Grealish, Gil, Traore, Sinclair. I'm struggling to think of too many times when I thought "ooh Everton are today's televised game. This'll be exciting."

I reckon he could make us solid but might struggle a bit if Sanchez or Gana got injured as his teams tended to be based around being physical and strong in the middle.

Rodgers would be more of a gamble but I fancy he'd do well with the attacking players mentioned. Under him, Dyer and even Routledge always looked pretty good. More importantly, so did Sinclair.

Saying that, I'd still be more than happy to replace the current incumbent with Moyes, although exciting foreigner such as Bielsa, De Boer or Girard remains my favoured option.

You can hobbit!!!

[ciggiesnbeer]

I am genuinely baffled how respected fellow fans could be even vaguely excited about Moyes. Just seems more of the same to me. Still differences of opinion and all that. If it was him obviously I would rally but right now I am having a hard time feeling the love. Anyone care to try and enthuse me or point out what I am missing?

I feel the same. It'd be like dumping your partner because they nicked your wallet to go and get fucked up at a party and then taking up with someone 10 years older who you know will never steal from you, but will also never ever go to any parties.

Probably because he's proven quality in the PL, unlike most of the other muppets Lerner has employed since O'Neill walked. We're in a relegation battle and I'd be a tad more confident with Moyes in charge rather than Sherwood.
