Remi Garde - Departs Aston Villa

[saunders_heroes]

I wonder if he regrets taking the job? He's walked into an awful mess.

[LTA]

He looks like a man that may well walk of his own accord to me.

We can hope.  Another chancer.

[Steve67]

The decision making from the players is terrible, trying to dribble , not passing, standing still etc just wank. Grade admitted in his post match interview that he doesn't know how to sort it. What a complete mess this club is in.

[eamonn]

Does Remi have kids? If he's managing, coaching and involved in transfers as well, he's stretching himself.
 If not Steve Round, he should have got an assistant in instead of waiting for Lyon to release the guy he wants who probably won't fancy it anyway once we're relegated.

[Legion]

Will he be our Felix Magath?

Spot on.

I regret him taking the job.

[class-of-82]

His face so angry when he just slumped back into the dug out after a simple ball could not be played summed him up
I so wish we do the opposite to Chelsea and keep him and transfer the lot en masse except for veretout ayew amavi

[claret and blue blood]

Keep him till the end of the season at least and let's see if he can pull this club out of the nosedive that started way way before he got the chance to sort it out, I think he at least deserves to try to rid the place of some of the players who are either not good enough or not comitted enough or both.
Judge him when he's done that.

[supertom]

He's poor. Simple as that. He came in with ideas and hasn't come remotely close to even beginning to impliment them.

One thing that blights our club and has done since Lambert, is the fact we're shockingly poor when it comes to individual errors. We gift goals. We gifted a penalty today. Again, some may argue it was harsh decision but the fact is Westwood, regardless of whether it's stone wall or not, puts himself in a position where he makes a challenge that runs the risk of giving away a penalty. Again, Westwood is one of those players who is just piss fucking poor at everything and makes sloppy errors.

Can you blame a manager on players making individual errors?
Yes you can. When the errors are as consistent as they are at Villa. Error upon error, fuck up upon fuck up. Why? Because the players for starters appear to have no idea how they are supposed to be playing. No one seems confident in what they are supposed to be doing. So on top of players looking confused on the pitch, they end up having brain farts and gifting goals.
That's Garde's fault and his problem, just as it was Sherwoods before him, and Lambert before that.

Is Garde an inspiring figure? Does he have the dressing room? No on both counts. Quite evidently the dressing room is split. There's no team spirit. No cohesion. No unity. The work-rate from the vast majority of players isn't good enough.

Does he make good decisions? No. His lineups, and subs are awful, even respecting the fact he inherited a poor squad. Tactically we're crap.

Fire his fucking arse. Pathetic. We've seen more than enough to realise he's never, ever going to get us moving in the right direction. Can you see Remi inspiring us for a long hard slog in the Championship? I can't.

We need another clean sweep in the summer and we need a manager who knows how to get out of the championship.

Or that bloke at Spurs holding up the Underground ticket at the press conference. The bald guy, can't remember his name!!!

Without taking sides or building anybody up or putting anybody down, what is being written in big sections of this forum at the moment is nothing less than verbal vandalism.

[ozzjim]

I think he is potentially a very good manager.

Agreed Brian.

[Malandro]

Agree. I'm hoping he sticks around because it would mean most of the players wouldn't. He has them sussed.
