seems yet another gamble,

I suppose any appointment is a risk, but cant we go for David Moyes his cv dont read to bad.

I'd love Moyes at the Villa, it would give us a huge boost and lift the fans to know we finally got a manager who actually knows what he's doing. This Garde link worries the hell out of me though. Apparently he has a history of working with young players at clubs with tight budgets who sell their best players.
Honestly, this isn't gonna end well.

Yes why go for a manager who suits our squad and was reasonably successful in a similar setup when we can go for one who's failed/failing in his last 2 jobs and would need to replace half the squad.

The MOTD2 boys have just nailed it. Net spend £5m . Shocking.


I still think 25m net spend , sherwood stil wouldn't have a clue . He listened to wilkins too much for a start.

Having just heard Dwight Yorke on Talkshite, I'm convinced he's the man for us. As he said, he'd be ideal after having spent 10 years at the club, having a great relationship with the fans, got his coaching badges and been a pundit on loads of games on Sky over the years. And he's not one of these managers who don't do anything but keep on getting jobs (take that, Allardyce!). Yep he's the man for me alright!

Because I want something different from the last 6 seasons that's why.

I'm fairly happy with either but I think it will be Garde. Anyway whoever comes in,and preferably this week,will have to hit the ground running with the fixtures we have coming up. We shall have to wait and see.

Whereas Moyes' only real managerial success on the other hand was working with young players at a club with a tight budget who sold their best...

Oh.

There's a really limited sample of French managers who came to manage in the UK - apart from Le Guen and Houllier/Wenger, neither of whom really count for this exercise, I can only really think of Santini, who left before anybody had an idea as to whether he was any use or not.

Don't forget Alain Perrin the Portsmouth legend.

Anyway, I think we're arguing over who's the tallest dwarf. I wouldn't care if the next manager came from Mars as long as they worked out OK.

I don't understand why you'd interview someone if you don't actually want him.
