Next Villa manager

[footyskillz]

Shame Sanchez Flores is at Espanyol, I think he did great job at Watford, very unlucky to lose his job after promotion and a decent 1st Prem League season. And Watford to Villa worked out well for a previous Villa boss too.

He didn't promote them.

Ah.... yes.

it's not your fault they still have nt out dyche in the poll !
I know what you're saying though Sanchez did well with them ! As did Dyche he is the man who got promoted and he did it again with Burnley !
How about it eh ! Dyche! In the poll!

Take out Warnock ! Put dyche in   !

Juergen Klinsman has popped up at hills online, 20/1. I asked as a laugh what his price would be, thought over 50's tbh. But I get the feeling it will be somebody nobody has mentioned, so you never know ....

[Matt Collins]

It'll be someone none of us are expecting.

I wouldn't mind the unknown. There are thousands of managers out there.

I would like the unknown too. Nobody had heard of Arsene Wenger when Arsenal got him - I'd settle for the next 20 years being similar to Arsenal's last 20 (But with a Champions League trophy in addition!)  Out of those listed Gary Rowett would be my choice.

For every successful unknown there must be 30 unsuccessful ones

It could well be the time for tried and tested at last. We've not done that in a while

King Kenny at plop and King Kevin at the jawdees as well

Didn't Fu-King Kevin Macdonald have two cracks at embarrassing us?

[mr underhill]

Only as caretaker though so I didn't think of him at all...which is how I like it with KMac

I mentioned laurent blanc and bergkamp but dyche as sensible option

Really don't want Black anywhere near the place. If Bruce coming had that as part of it I would be completely against it.

There must be a brains trust that can identify potential managers across Europe. Middlesborough found Karanka, Huddersfield found Wagner. We need to find someone.

I read today that if Bruce gets the job he will have Keith Bertschin as Assistant.  Now that does make me feel uncomfortable.

It's a shame Garde arrived when he did. I'm sure he'd have done a good job in the right circumstances.

File under 'we're going to give someone a good thrashing soon'. And 'the team needs time to gel.'

Obviously we will never know. He didn't stand a chance with the players involved or the lack of support from the board.

Bring in Hopkins as coach to complete the set and it's time for us all to pack up and go home. Shudders.

Yuck, what a mess. I think we should steer clear of anything Small Heath and I'm hating all these links to their ex and current managers.

Bertschin was sacked after Bruce had left wasn't he? Can't we keep Clarke and Bond and get a forwards coach in to refine our attacking play?
