Manager for next season

[LeeB]

Pellegrini is looking for an "interesting" offer. Sounds like a come and get me plea to me.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

The Mowbray squad is something often mentioned by the Baggie fans. Of course he had to get that squad working and he did, with some style, something else that's frequently commented on.

Well also Mowbray did get West Brom promoted so I really don't see the black mark against him.  Yeah they were a bit dire when they came up, but then its always a big step up for some.  I thought he did a good job there as did RDM.

I'd take Pellegrini in a shot, but it arn't going to happen.

I don't care who the new manager is so long as it is not Eric Black.  All I want is to see a Villa team without Guzan, Agbonlahor, Richardson, Bacuna, Richards or Lescott in it or on the bench.  Now, where's my aphid spray?

That should be the blueprint from which Roberto works. Great post Brian.

spot on.

[wittonwarrior]

I  don't think  the Italian one would have the staying power for the Villa.  More in tune with Moyes and even his refusal should  be seen as a spurring point for the board to do everything possible to bring me to Villa  Park.  7

the most recent proven people at this level are Steve Bruce, Neil Warnock and Ian Holloway. I don't imagine these lot are on H&V's most wanted list...

I'd bite your hand off. Class act. The fact that he looks like Sam the eagle from the muppets only makes me like him more. A left field appointment like that (someone of that calibre) would show major intent, sadly though I agree with GB.

[Toronto Villa]

Class act except when he lied about us practically forcing Delph out the door.

Fair point. I'd forgotten about that, but following the behind the scenes shambles from Lerner down it wouldn't surprise me if there was any truth or half truth in the matter.  I think we've been lied to for a long time under his ownership and I haven't taken anything that came out of the club as gospel for many moons. Not that I'll ever forgive Delph lol That example a side though I thought he handled himself extremely well under lots of pressure and scrutiny at Man City, they played decent football, he advanced them in Europe etc.

Whether or not we've been lied to by ownership has no relevance to this particular issue: all you have to look at is how utterly inconceivable it is for a club to force out one of its best players while in the midst of spending 50+ million pounds on new players.

[mr underhill]

yes, as inconceivable as Pellegrini becoming manager.

[Gregorys Boy]

Think Pellegrini will take the Everton job myself.

[The_ads]

If you think Pellegrini would come here you need to out the Whisky down and start living in 2016, not the mid 90's

[N'ZMAV]

I don't want Pellergrini, I can't understand a word he says.
