Manager for next season

[oswald funkletrumpet]

I'd rather just keep Garde.

Just a question, but what has Garde done so far to show that he is going to get us back up? I like him, but I don't think he is the right man.

I think we have a terrible squad that has been getting worse for years. We've also hired several new managers in the last few years and have declined with each appointment. Garde is the first to actually call out some of our parasitic players. I don't know if he's the right man, but I don't know if he's the wrong man either. I don't think anyone could do anything with this squad.

yes he does call them out but then still picks them and we get tonked because they arent trying!

pure genius

Yes, God forbid a manager offer players an opportunity to prove him wrong after offering some constructive criticism.

Break the bank for Howe.
Aston Villa in the championship is still a bigger job than Bournemouth in the Premier League.

This, and there is a sense that he has taken Bournemouth as far as he can.  But I don't think he would switch.  For one when he tried it with a bigger club in Burnley (bigger club than Bournemouth I meant), it didn't work out.  And also, he has a good relationship with the board and just loves it there, so unless it was for another top flight side I'm not sure he would leave. 

Moyes would be ideal, but at this stage I don't think he would be willing to take a gamble on us in the Championship and is holding out for a PL job.

Think we have to be looking at the experienced Championship, but still very much in their primes brackets, so anyone out of Dyche, Houghton and Pearson would be good for me.  Dyche might be the best long term prospect, whereas Houghton and Pearson maybe more short-term project type managers.

Maybe if he'd been backed in January he wouldn't need to. We have a lot of injuries and very few choices on who to select. Who are all these alternatives? People shout about giving the youngsters a go, but to what end? Maybe they're not good enough or even if they are why throw them into a hopeless situation that'll damage them. I suspect Garde is picking the parasites because he knows we're down and ultimately we're not going damage the confidence and belief of some players who we actually want around the club in the future. It is painful to see us lose, but the rest of this season doesn't matter as our fate is sealed. Better to suffer some short term pain than damage those who might give us a long term gain. If Garde is here after the summer and is properly backed I can almost guarantee you won't see the likes of Agbonlahor and Guzan in the team again.

Personally I would rather keep R.G....but I wonder if this guy will be available ?, BBC reporting that trouble is brewing at the Riverside..........Godzvilla!

Middlesbrough head coach Aitor Karanka is considering his future at the club.

The 42-year-old Spaniard, who took charge at the Riverside in November 2013, left Boro's training ground unexpectedly on Friday after a row.
Boro, who travel to Charlton on Sunday, are second in the Championship, four points behind leaders Burnley with a game in hand.
But, having led the table by six points on 12 January, they have won just three of their past 10 games.
The club's hierarchy are trying to convince him to stay.

I want to see what Remi Garde can do with some real players. If we still have the same squad it's irrelevant who the manager is.

Proves him right then.

just dont do it openly, its not that difficult a concept to  grasp

we are getting worse not better under him

did anyone want mcneill to stay?

[Neil Hawkes]

The consensus on dropping the highly paid shit stains that are infecting the team for the youngsters, that would at least give something back, is a bit pie in the sky if anyone thinks it's going to change any results at this stage of the season.

As much as I despise M.Utd, they probably had the most successful crop of youngsters blooded together in recent history, yet even them coming into a team that was a really good team anyway, took a while to find their way and get good results.

Trying to compare that to us, who are circling the plughole and precariously close to being flushed away, will do nothing for the confidence of the youngsters nor the team confidence and if anything will place seeds of doubt into those that have been targeted to start next season fresh and full of confidence.

Stick with the shit stains and let them forever blight their future careers - as they clearly do not posses the intelligence to see that not only are they damaging the mighty Villa, but also their own reputation.

Now if only Remi could say that at a press conference.

[Chris Jameson]

Looks like Karanka has fallen out with Boro, if Garde leaves wouldn't mind him at Villa.

[DaveD]

He's walked out because the players wouldn't back him, so he'd last one training session here.

[Boz]

I don't get the Moyes thing.
10 years ago, yes, but I can't help but think he's seen better days and is on his way down.

If we appointed him, I'd love to be wrong!

Agreed, Moyes isn't what Villa want now. It's someone like Bilic

[Ian.]

I hope that all of these trouble makers will be gone next season who ever is in charge.

Is there some fucking law nobody has told me about which means you can't?

Because otherwise it's one of those bollocks football cliches that people blindly follow.

Telling us everything is rosy whilst serving up utter drivel worked well for the last boss, didn't it?

anyone can see that everything is shit you only have to look at the table

garde calling players out with no backup plan was naive in the extreme and backfired

i watched a villa side stop trying against liverpool which cannot be defended.

he has made a shit team shitter, if you want to give reasons to the contary be my guest

2 wins in half a season

no further questions your honour
