Absolutely not. No gambles or as lower risk as is possible.

I think Smith too from all the candidates - but I suspect it will be someone left-field without any managerial experience over here. Not necessarily a bad thing....

You look at the types of managers that have in over here in the past few years and done well - Nuno, Wagner, Jokanovic, Karanka all promoted. Carvalhal got 80 points with Wednesday, Bielsa and Rafa here too.

The money in the Premier League has dripped down a level and there are very good coaches down here now. Bruce is a dinosaur and this division has left him behind.

I think even Sunday morning parks football has left Bruce behind.

If there is nobody available, what is the harm in going for a Terry or a Henry for the season, with a review at the end of it?

It simply cannot be any worse than sticking with Bruce and his ridiculous refusal to trust his players to take games to the opposition.

Frank Lampard has started OK at Derby and if we fail to go up, we would have the opportunity to change things next summer.

Who would you go for?

I think I am the opposite of your thinking as I am fed up of the same old faces and want someone fresh with innovative ideas to put the spark back into Aston Villa!

I think I have already liked Axl Rose suggestion of the ex Mexico manager (who speaks English), Juan Carlos Osorio Arbeláez.

We won't be going for a Pochettino/Jokanovic type appontment. Whoever we get in, we'll already know of. That's the Villa way, seemingly.

sadly I think you are right. Dyche Howe Rodgers, someone of that ilk

But in life you are supposed to learn by your mistakes and that way has failed continually!

I wouldn't be overly upset with any of that trio.

Everything is a risk, but I'm more talking about somebody up and coming Lambert-esq.

I don't have an issue with a foreign manager who has no experience of the league or game over here.

I think the exits of Wyness and Round mean that it's impossible to second guess what type of manager we'll go for. If they were still around it'd probably be Allardyce. I'm inclined to agree with JJ-AV that we'll go for someone from abroad that we won't know too much about. I'd go for Smith. I don't know why it should overwhelm him.

Which is the same reason you gave for wanting Bruce when RDM left.
