Remi Garde - Departs Aston Villa

[aj2k77]

Any more ''performances'' and selections like today and he can join the shit heap in the clear out for all I care.

[aj2k77]

I'm coming round to thinking that the total clear out should include the manager.

Me too. Nice guy, speaks eloquently but the team are still a rabble and his selections are as safe as you can get. We are rock bottom, we've needed wins.

[sickbeggar]

We're actually WORSE now than under Sherwood. I accept the shit players are not his fault but he's got nothing out of them. I could put up with being beaten every game for the rest of this season if we at least appear to be trying. That's not an unreasonable expectation is i,t even by our rock bottom standards. Even managing to organise a defence so they don't concede with the opposition's first attack is something even the poorest teams can manage. That's not an unreasonable expectation either in my book. You can be a desperately poor team and still tackle/mark/pass to each other - these skills are not the preserve of the Messi's of this world!! Either he's not teaching the utter basics of coaching or he is and has completely lost the players. Either way he's got to go.

I think he may have lost the players and I would rather keep him than them,

Well that's another thing - why doesn't he drop them? It's not like its going to lead to worse results is it?

Drop them and play who instead?

the youth. They may not be any good but i'd bet they'd try.

[PeterWithesShin]

I don't recall anyone saying they weren't trying etc for the previous month or so. If anything it's been the fight and spirit that has been what has been picking up points. A lot of this side have shown they collapse at the drop of a hat for a few years now.

Yes, then we could let them get destroyed mentally in the process.

What's the point in that?

[PeterWithesShin]

I'll add that normally i'd be for sticking some of the kids into the first team, but something like a 6 goal pasting could really fuck them up.

[saunders_heroes]

Bit of a cliche asking for the kids to be promoted. They're not good enough.

[ChicagoLion]

Our 2 "strikers " are injured.
Ayew is suspended.
Hutton just back from injury.
Sanchez injured.
Grealish injured
Sinclair 1 goal in 18 games.
Not sure who could have played today although a dustbin could replace Bacuna.
The point is that he is not exactly spoilt for choice.

[olaftab]

Sorry Remi you fucked it up today. You need to learn from this. Either you can not motivate players to raise their game or you have the wrong players. I have lost a little trust in you and I will see what you will do in the summer before i restore my 100% backing. Time to sharpen this knife to cutout the rotten meat.

That's possible but it can also go the other way. They've got nothing to lose, more to the point, we've got nothing to lose, 4 or 5 youth teamers blooded till the end of the season would certainly come in handy for next. and restore a bit of belief and promise around the place. Watching the current wretched bunch stumble around the pitch does nothing for anyone

Today was another in a long line of hammering we've taken these past five years. Those saying it was the most humiliating game they've seen weren't at Stamford Bridge or Valley Parade or St Marys or the Emirates or the Ethiad.

Getting ritually smashed at least once a season is another one of our trademarks.

Oh I don't know, a 6-0 hammering at home trumps any of those you mention.
We lost 6-0 AT HOME.

Yep and you can't even claim it was a team playing out of their skin. Liverpool were average at best
