Manager for next season

[cdbearsfan]

Yeah, we should've picked a reliable Britisher like Leicester, Watford and West Ham did.

nose connections aside, i am starting to consider rowett

You're missing the point.


It's not about nationalities,  it's about results.

Why can't we wait and see what Garde does in the Championship?

Because.

a)  he has no experience of that league whatsoever.

b) he has no prior evidence of identifying or building a team from the lower leagues to get promoted. In any country.

c) he has proven himself to be incapable of motivating the players we have, many of whom (the shittest ones) will STILL BE THERE whether you like it or not.




I still can't believe so many people have their fingers in their ears and their eyes clamped shut. Remi Garde came here in difficult circumstances we all accept, but he had two thirds of a season to make a difference. And fair play to him, he has, he's actually made us look worse than Tim Sherwood did.

The sooner he sulks off back to France the better. I don't blame him necessarily but the people who thought giving an inexperienced foreigner the task of dragging this lot off the foot of the table was a good idea are the real culprits in all this. They should not only hang their heads in shame, they should be paying for it with their jobs.

agree totally

next season we will still have our shittest players, the few decent ones will leave and i cant see us spending much.

so whoever is manager isnt going to have much to work with, garde cant work with what he has now.

I'm fed up of us picking managers to suit the pointless spunkbuckets we've got in our squad. It's about time it was the other way around again.

Now that Moyes has managed Man U does he really want to go back to mucking it in the Championship? He sees himself as a PL manager. That's where he will manage again.

PL clubs might not see him as a PL manager though

The only club I see changing manager this summer could be West Brom

Maybe Pardew could be in trouble if Palace continue to slide

Man Utd and Arsenal will go outside Britain for their new managers

So if Moyes wants to work in Britain, the Villa job will be the biggest one out there this summer

[Chico Hamilton III]

I reckon he'll end up at Celtic

If we have any chance of getting him, then I think that we should.

Garde's obviously been dealt a difficult hand and I'm tempted to give him the chance to prove himself, but if Moyes is available and wants to come, then I would take him.

[Des Little]

Moyes will sit tight and wait for the first PL casualty next season - possibly even the Albion if Pulis chucks it. As big as we are, and as much as it pains me to say it, we are a backward step right now. 

[mr underhill]

the Newcastle gig might also be available ; the fat controller won't be there if they go down

[old man villa fan]

Until we know the direction the club are going to take regarding the players, it is almost pointless to talk about managers (other than a general discussion).

If there is no money available, that dictates a certain group of managers. If there is some money available, that will dictate another group of managers. If there is a lot of money available, that's another group. If we have to rely to a great extent on young players, that can mean another type of manager.

[mr underhill]

Good to know. Even if we are in the basket case category, there's still a pool of people to pick from.

Sean Dyche is doing a great job with Burnley. Have to say that at the moment I quite fancy him coming in.

I couldn't listen to that voice every week.  Chris Hughton would still be my first choice or Karanka at Middlesborough if he leaves there.

[AV89]

It became obvious to me in one of those 4am Villa nightmares that Brian Little has been brought back as insurance to babysit the first team when Remi walks - he just like the rest of us has given up and must be close to saying fuck it im off. Fully expect it to happen this week and gives us a chance to get the right man in before the summer.

Not a chance of Brian taking over as manager again either short or long term.

I doubt he'd want to work with this bunch of players anyway.
