New manager- when will it happen?

[ozzjim]

How will that suit Pearson better than Moyes? Pearson had a fair amount of money at Leicester, probably more leeway than Moyes at Everton.

Does Moyes get on with Lescott? I wonder if he might be tempted to keep him as he knows him or get rid of him if bitter about the manner of his departure from Everton?

I'd be very disappointed if Pearson took over especially with Moyes out of work and interested in the job. We've got a chance to prove to fans that we still have ambition for the club and get the fans back onside again. Employing Pearson would send out all the wrong messages yet again.

I think the shitbags would love him though, they would stroke his ego and get him onside

Please not Pearson.

Pearson is another gamble by the club, just as Remi, Sherwood, Lambert and McLeish were gambles. Our gambles have failed. The team that takes the field at the weekend is a monument to all these failed managers. A badly run club. Just get a manager in with experience, gravitas and a long term vision for the club. No gobshites.  Pearson nearly had Leicester relegated before they went on that run to stay up. He is not what we need.  He's another gamble. 

But don't you think that he deserves credit for Leicester's likely title win?  The momentum started at the back end of last season and really the current manager has had very little to do since.  Because of Pearson's hot head then it would be a gamble, but I do think at least short term he would do the job.

No. Ranieri and the team deserve credit for that. Yes it's the team he put together and he deserves some credit for that.  Do you honestly think that he is the best man to stabilise a big club like Villa, build a new squad and bring us back up next season and then build from that?  The guy would be under the microscope here. Don't think it will work.

No, I tend to agree that Moyes is, just don't know how likely we are to get him.  Pearson might be a good short term option, but then because of his tempament there is always that chance that he would blow up after a few months.  You do make a good point about the pressure being increased on him in the Villa job.  There are pros and cons to his appointment I think.

The thing with Moyes, and i keep saying this, is you would hope he'd be able to come in and make demands for agreeing to come here. I don't want a manager who say targets Barry(as an example) only for the board and Reilly to say, "We can't afford him, here's Rudi Guayno, Ghanian U21 from French side St Laurent Blanc, will be as good as Barry in 3 years time". That's my main problem with Pearson, he may not have the clout to get control of the transfers. Whoever comes in MUST be given that control.

ABP!

Anyone but Pearson/Pulis/Pubehead/Pardew

Do you really think Reilly will be here next season?  I don't.

Agreed, but then i think of Moyes spending £27M on Felliani

Doesn't really matter if its Reilly or someone else doing the role. Every manager here since Lambert at least has made noises about not getting the players they wanted. Obviously if a player is out of our budget and the club says no, then a Manager has to get on with it. My problem is i feel a lot of our transfers weren't so much governed by affordability but Value for Money. i.e., why pay 10m and 45k a week for the 29 year old when you can get a 22 year old for 25k a week AND he could be worth double in 3 years time. Well as we've seen with some of our signings this summer, 3 years time is a long way away.

Fellaini was very good for him at Everton. Or think of Arteta for £2m and Cahill for £1.5m. I'm not a massive Moyes fan, but like all managers he signed some very good players, and some turkeys.
