Who do you want the next Villa manager to be?

That Gourcennec guy reading his history looks like a pretty decent shout if Garde doesn't take it.

I have no doubt that if Garde wants to join us and we want him a deal will be struck. Money will change hands as compensation is agreed and we will get our man. Everything else is noise and speculation. He ticks every box that the club would be looking for and I am sure without being any kind of ITK that he'll be our manager.

I know trying to get MON back is ridiculous, but the stick MON gets on here is stupid. Maybe, as fans, we get what we deserve? (i.e. Shit for many years).

The only thing worse than MON's character was his football. Given the amount of money he was given he probably ranks as our most tactically clueless manager. And the twat was always saying how bloody "exceptional" we were. WTF.

"We beat the Rags 5-1". Big fucking deal. We were Top 3 spenders or there about for most of his time here.

Her record it very similar to Lambert pre-Villa. Difference is, she seems to understand a thing or two about tactics.

Time for the people that matter at Villa Park to take their time and ensure this appointment is scrutinized to the 10th degree, do not bring anyone in who we now cannot meet their requirements, all it does is allow for excuses further down the line if it goes tits up. If it is Garde, but we cannot for whatever reason get the people he wants around him, let's look elsewhere.

We are on 4 points, I believe 37 will again keep teams up, so that is 33 out of a possible 84 available, I know we have not done that for a while, but that is why we are looking for a new manager again, let's make sure from proper research and taking our time, not knee jerk reaction to the doom and gloom brigade that is us the fans the new guy has the ability to gain a minimum of those 33 points and lay the foundations for this shit to stop come May 2016.

I listened to the guardian podcast last night and the french journalist had this to say:
1. Wasn't surprised that Sherwood was found out (interesting that his views seem to be the polar opposite to the ex-pro/british pundits).
2. Garde would be a good appointment.
3. Lyon wanted to keep him but he wanted a Guardiola style sabbatical.
4. His football is easier on the eye than Lambert and is more thoughtful than Sherwood.
5. He was known as the Ambassador at Arsenal (Wenger wanted him as a conduit between the french and english speaking players).
6. Best thought of as a long term appointment.
7. Became Lyon manager when they were in a similar position to Villa.
8. Season 1 - Won cup in first season, Season 2 - getting through the group in the champions league was considered a miracle by french press.
9. Good working with young players
10. The other pundits were admittedly critical of our signings "spent enough but lacked nous".

He ticks as lot of boxes and appears to align well with our recent transfers and strategy.  Hopefully this demonstrates that the club now has some sort of footballing influence at the top levels.

Although Garde looks like a forward thinking appointment with plenty of potential I can't help but think we need to take the safe option. For me that would be Moyes, as it's a big ask to expect a manager with no premiership experience to come in and hit the ground running.

Eh?

[silhillvilla]

How do you mean, bad? Are you not going to be able to warn us any more. I really would miss your Woe, Woe and thrice Woe.

My fear is around which sane , quality manager would come? I think we are very much in what i would call a sub prime managerial search , or someone unhinged like Pearson or Ranieri

Do you ever engage your brain before posting?

What it means is you want to dish abuse you will get it back. If you can't take it don't dish it .

[Ron Manager]

Good morning everybody.I am sure that Garde will come  with people he knows well from Arsenal at Villa Park .Of course he wants his mates with him to tell him he is doing a wonderful job, they all do.Either Garde or Moyes would be acceptable. But Moyes will not come simply because he he wouldn't agree to having someone else buying his players for him.So its Garde probably announce it next week.

[Phil from the upper holte]

I'm hoping we stop the comitee, I'm sure Sherwood couldn't be trusted but if you're putting a manager in charge then you should let them bring in their own targets

[rob_bridge]

Dwight Yorke is doing his coaching badges, has a feel for the club and reckons he can do no worse than Sherwood.

Er Yes you can Dwight - see Terry Connor at Wolves.

Obviously would like to hear and understand those fans calling for a 'Villa' Man to be put in charge as to whether Yorkie fits the profile.

[Phil from the upper holte]

He's a badge kissing ****** and he can fuck off

[mr underhill]

I wouldn't go that far, but whenever this is mentioned in the media it's always prefixed with the words 'Manchester United legend....' So it's a no from me.
