Remi Garde - Departs Aston Villa

[Tony Erdington]

2 wins in 16 and only 11 goals. It's not good. I like him but the results have still be shite as have the performances, the dead cat bounce was more of a slightly twitching corpse.

It's alright them all having their own personal wars at the club over what has happened and writing the season off but us fans have another 3 months of this and it's gut wrenching at the moment. I've never felt anywhere near as low about football as I do this season. I hate the game, there's not a single player I feel I can connect to or get behind like a hero.

I agree with aj2k77

I think there is more chance of us playing warsaw the season after next more than restating ourselves as premiership relegation favourites.

I really don't like lerner

We are being transferred to the Ekstraklasa for our transgressions?  Holy cow.

I suspect Remi Garde is sending a message to Lerner, Fox and Hollis.  He is playing the team they have forced on him.  He does not want to put at risk the careers of young players by making them fight hopeless battles the owner and the board have brought on themselves.  It is payback for hanging him out to dry in January.  If Remi stays he will present Steve Hollis with a shopping list that will make him shit his pants.

Bang on.

They can't deport us can they?

If he presents Hollis with a shopping list the club won't sanction then, he won't get them. What is Remi going to do? stamp his feet a bit? Resign and forfeit a pay-off? He has no leverage at all

Not until Boris and Gove get their way in June.

I expect he would walk, and tell it like it is.

Would they care? Hardly going to make them less popular is it?

[Steve67]

I quite like the man but he has to stop picking Bacuna and Westwood otherwise I will start to dislike him.

[mr woo]

I don't expect Garde to he here next year,  whatever the circumstances.

Personally I won't be too upset. Even West Brom realised Pepe Mel wasn't up to the job before it was too late.

[aj2k77]

I've said this a few times during the last few years now but this is not a job for someone to cut their teeth on.

[sickbeggar]

We haven't shown an improvement in results or performances since he arrived and even those that support him can't really argue with that. Only the cause. If it's the players not being good enough then he's fucked because most will still be here next season. if he can't motivate them or they don't like him, then he's still fucked because most will still be here next season. Billy McNeill Mk2. Lets just hope there's a SGT MK2 waiting in the wings

Is Remi Garde up to the job ??

Well no one can blame him for our current predicament.
BUT, but what has he done that me or you couldn't have done in ?

That's a serious question.

He persists in playing the same players, bar Bunn for Guzan.
He persists in playing the same formation that has failed for 5 years
He cant motivate the current players
He hasn't signed any players (ok I don't blame him for this - just saying)

If I was manager I believe I could have done as well as Garde.

I'm not actually advocating sacking him as I honestly don't know whether he is the right man or not.

What's he done, at Villa, that makes you believe he is the man for next season ?

I'll answer the question when you advise that what qualifications do you have to suggest you could have done as well as Garde?

Also what you would have done in your professional capacity to be able to glean the points from opponents?  Are you a qualified professional football coach? What is your record?
How would you have motivated and managed the players, many of whom pick up a pay check and have zero professional integrity?

Let me know how you would have done as well.

One final question do you like Bitter?
