What I liked about his interview is he discussed the team. He talked through how and why he wanted a certain shape to the midfield, how we were attempting to play the game. No sound bites, no excuses, nothing about Remi Garde, he talked about our football team clearly, it's only been a week but I'm 100% certain he will get his message across to the players. I know we've been saying it for a few years now but if we can just survive this year from the mess we've started next year I know we will kick on under this guy, It might be desperation but I think he's the real deal.

Yes, good point. It looks hopeful, but I do think people re going way over the top at this point.
I've been getting into a row with a Spurs fan I know who said we were basically terrible and our football is a blight on the top flight. Spurs fans are utter morons!

From F365's "Winners & Losers" column:QuoteRemi Garde and another way A monumental difference in performance and mood. From the chalk of Tim Sherwood’s white cliffs of Dover to Remi Garde’s French cheese.If the national stereotypes feel too strong, they are appropriate at least this once. Remi Garde took his first opportunity to bring back Aston Villa’s continental brigade back into the first team, and they performed admirably against the league leaders. Jordan Amavi, Idrissa Gana, Jordan Veretout, Carlos Sanchez, Carles Gil, Jordan Ayew. Even Charles N’Zogbia played a part!Villa may have offered little in attack, but they survived the Manchester City onslaught. It’s been a long time since Villa’s underbelly was anything other than squidgy soft. A run of seven consecutive Premier League defeats has, finally, come to an end.This was an instant improvement. Gone was the tactical vacuum of Sherwood’s dice-rolling defence and midfield, replaced by a coherent plan to stop the division’s most potent attacking midfield. How weird that those useless French players Sherwood shunned instantly improved the side in his absence.It’s not difficult to want Garde to do well, introduced against a backdrop of unfair mistrust. Think I’m overstating that mood? Here’s Charlie Wyett in The Sun on Thursday afternoon: ‘Now, Aston Villa will be joining Sunderland in the Championship after the ridiculous decision to appoint Remi Garde.’ He hadn’t even had a single match in charge.Villa’s new manager still has an immense task on his hands to keep the club in the Premier League, but let’s not pretend that he isn’t better equipped than his predecessor. Villa Park enjoyed their first evidence of the changing of the Garde.

Unfortunately I tried logic, which he seemed to struggle with.
