We have to wait until he gets in some of his own players. It's not fair to fully judge him on the utter shite he has. What can he do about Guzan just letting a goal in at his near post, Gestede just being awful, or most of the rest of them.
Agree completely, he's not had nearly enough time, not been able to bring in any of his own players yet. To be truthful I feel sorry for the bloke.


Neither has Big Sam.

I don't. He gets paid enough.  If it is because he couldnot get his preferred coaches etc. Then he shouldn't of taken the job.  Confidence is worse than ever at the moment and he and his tactics and substitutions are far from blameless. Chancer.

It's Garde who decided to play Gestede, and who kept him on for the entire 90 minutes.  The useless carthorse did nothing except set up their second goal by giving it away after another simple pass bobbled off his shins.

I can't make my mind up about Garde, I still think he needs time.  I cling to the hope that he's like a chef with only shit for ingredients, he'll try all sorts of combinations to make something palatable but, at the end of the day it's still shit.  Maybe someday soon he'll find something to take the stench away.

IMO, he has to be left in the job for the remainder of the season, we can't keep changing managers like this, we have to give him a go.  It's all been said before but, leaving it so late to bin Lambert smacks of ineptitude of the highest order. 

My grandfather, father and his brothers must be spinning in their graves to such an extent that they're bound to surface!

I have had enough, it is quite clear that Garde is crap too, the reason why he has been signed remains a big mistery.
Series of coaches (5 in all) have tried and failed or are failing. No one can perfume this pig Lerner and Co have concocted together.

That's true, but it was hardly asking much for Garde to come in and improve something, anything, but he hasn't even managed that.

Glad it's not just me beginning to think Garde offers nothing.

I do like the three summer 'Jordan' signings, they look to have the only quality in the squad. Glimpses from Traore and young enough to keep. Other than that I'd look to completely overhaul the squad, it's rotten and anything that is good gets infested as well.

Let's face it he's only our manager because he was cheap, out of work and desperate for a job in the PL.

Fox is just like some of the players...they didn't look the gift-horse in the mouth when it came trotting up. It's not their fault they were offered the chance to come to Villa when they were totally inexperienced and unsuitable for the job. The fault lies with the person at the top making these indescribably poor decisions, over and over again. What was Einstein's definition of insanity again...

Jordan 3 will be the only players well be able to sell. They won't be here next season, nor I imagine, would they want to be.

Garde has not done himself any favours so far. Some of his selections and susbstitutions have been abysmal and we look no more up for it then we did before him.

Lets face it, the players couldn't give a shit, they all need to go.

Unlike when Newcastle went down, we need a whole re-building job on the playing side, It's gonna be very tough to come straight back up.
We also need Randy et al out of the club, to make any strides forward.

I can see him resigning (once he's negotiated his contract pay-out) rather than attempting to come to terms with the challenges of the Championship.

Yes I guess you are right. I didn't expect us to be flying up the league but did expect a win here and there. Unfortunately he now has a worse record than Sherwood. I thought that was difficult. These drubbings are going to have a deep impact on Garde and players if they all stick around for next season.
