Remi Garde - Departs Aston Villa

[Bad English]

Aston Villa is a prestigious club in England on the exterior. But inside, there are lots of things that need to be done…”

It's not Sir Graham's Aston Villa are a "shambles" line but he is saying the same thing.

Can't disagree with that - probably worse than the public thinks

[Dante Lavelli]

He's playing a bit of a blinder.  A normal chairman would have no choice but to back him as they'd be fools to allow him to leave.  Not just because he appears really good but also because any potential manager will know, if he does go, that the job is poisoned.

“[Objectives and whether or not he stays should they be relegated] will be rediscussed once the next season begins its preparation. That means at the end of the campaign. I am ready to stay at this club if I am given the means required for promotion. Aston Villa is a prestigious club in England on the exterior. But inside, there are lots of things that need to be done…”

There is absolutely no excuse for not backing him to get promotion next year. We'll get massive parachute payments and will have the cash we so successfully avoided spending last month.

If these fucking charlatans running us have any clue, they'll realise that the obvious way back quickly is to firmly support a good manager. We've got the good manager, now they have got to back him.

I just love what he says. No fucking around with cliches. Part of that is that he's not one of the English lads off course. It's just honest. I am praying he stays

I think I'll stop posting.

Schmeichel, Huth, Vardy, Drinkwater, Inler

You're joking aren't you?! Anyone suggesting Vardy got booed off on this site when it was floated that we buy him. Schmeicher would have been too if anyone would have even thought of him. Huth has always been considered a donkey on here, and to have suggested signing him would have only pointed to how low we'd sunk...

I've been suggesting  Schmeichel as an upgrade on Guzan for a couple of seasons on here........

Peter?

Still our oldest Premier League goalscorer.

Yep. He seems to be the only one at the club able to speak in a direct and straightforward manner.

It also suggests that there will be some sort of power struggle in the near future, unless the problems pre-date Fox/The German chap/Reilly and he's simply identified the dysfunctional areas.

I would hate to be the cat in the Pearson household.

[Des Little]

This arsehole board had better equip whatever manager we have - Garde or otherwise- with what they need to get us back up pronto. That's what we expect from them.

[ozzjim]

Got to give him a pot to get the squad he wants to come back with. Shift some bigger earners and let him rebuild it please Villa.

[kippaxvilla2]

I read in The Mirror yesterday that if we manage to save £23,000 on electricity savings between now and May Remi has been promised all of this to invest in new players.

Why are they suddenly going to get smarter one league below?

The problem is Ozz, as we have found out over the past few years, is that it is hard to shift players on the kind of money that they won't earn elsewhere.  Prime example was that lot across the city and Zigic.   

The current side still needs some major investment though, as although we have some decent players, we need to strengthen the spine of the side (keeper, defensive midfielder, striker) and good players in those positions don't come cheap.
