Remi Garde - Departs Aston Villa

[Legion]

Don?

Really look at his record. It's impressive. He would come from Bournemouth i'm sure given the right assurances, and he'd have a bit of leverage with Lerner as he'd be the first manager for a long time who would be taking a step down to come to us.

Interesting in the interview of Lescot that he said Garde has flown off the handle a couple of times but his lack of the more industrial English has restrained him a bit.

I think the quiet and less emotional perception is just his public face.

There's maybe a couple of dozen clubs in the world where leaving them for us would be a step down, and that includes if we're Division 2.

I'd be very surprised if he would. He did leave them, was rubbish at Burnley, went back to Bournemouth and has since said that he doesn't see himself leaving them again because of what happened last time.

well there's more to authority than ranting and raving at players otherwise people like Roy Keane wouldn't have been utter shite at managing.If Garde is doing it, then its not having much effect. I'm sure the likes of Tim and Lambert did it and then the players had a good laugh about it afterwards. We've all met people in life who we wouldn't like to see lose their rag and garde isn't one of 'em

How do you know what he's like in a private capacity?

He's done all he can at Bournemouth, much like SGT at Watford.  What now? I think the chance to turn round this fallen giant would be too much to resist (and the payrise). As i said in an earlier post, we're no Burnley and his stock and experience has risen considerably since then

You may be right in your assumptions about Garde, I don't necessarily agree but neither of us can be sure.
I just think trying to gauge the manager by reactions in these players is a mistake, as they are collectively unfit for purpose.

How do you know Ferguson is? or Mourinho? Or Wenger. None of them look threatening physically but i'd rather have the likes of Keane and Pearson shouting at me than them three. you've either got that presence or you haven't. MON had it as well,despite being a pube-headed runt

Joking aside, this appears to be one of many problems we have.  Too many players who don't playing for Aston Villa seriously enough.

Lerner doesn't bother with games, so in their minds they probably think its not big a deal, as the owner isn't there to see it and complain.

So why haven't the Spurs players just sacked off the last decade or so given that Joe Lewis doesn't go to any of their matches?

It does seep down from the top no doubt but people forget that while the players can sit on their fat contracts or leave, there's still the problem of having to go to work where your manager makes your life miserable if your shite just like everyone else in the world. I'm pretty sure if N'zogbia was faced with 3 years of someone making his life a misery, he wouldn't be here now.

My biggest worry is Mourinho will get the ManU job and we'll get Giggs. I could imagine Lerner wetting himself with excitement if that happened. He'd probably turn up for a game. Let's face it, Lerner is a closet Man U fan from his appointing TSM on Ferguson's word to the hilarious OGS pursuit.
