Team of managers
« on: October 03, 2016, 10:19:27 AM »
In the last 20 years, since Wenger went to Arsenal, Villa have now departed with 11 permanent managers.  If you stick Houlier in goal on the grounds that he wasn't really a player, the rest form themselves into a decent team. 

Houlier; Gregory, O'Leary, McLeish, Taylor; Garde, Lambert; Di Matteo, O'Neil, Sherwood; Little

So the next manager needs to be a goalkeeper.

That team would probably get a result against most of ours the last 5 years!

Could always put Jim Baron in goal, he managed us to a win at Spurs after BFR ;)

Or indeed BFR who would block up most of the goal.

No more midfielders please. Then again, McLeish was a centre half, and that didn't work out well either.
