Next manager?

[cdbearsfan]

Yeah I'm on board with that. He'll do if we can't attract Zidane or Conte.

i know not enough games have been played to really know where teams will finish at the end of the season

but remember that inexperienced, young ex tv pundit who took over at Derby that people thought would struggle badly at first
well he's sitting two points from top in 4th position just now

Lampard's doing o.k but they were completely outplayed by Leeds. Derby got plenty of good players so they're in their usual play off position that "dinosaurs" like Rowett and McClaren got them to.

he got completely out played by Leeds after being there for a couple of games we got completely out played by Sheff Utd with Bruce after about a hundred games

He still has lots to learn.

If it was a choice between Dean Smith and Lampard, I'd take Dean Smith tbh.

Someone like Fonseca is an interesting name to throw into the ring though. Pretty sure he was close to the Everton job a while ago.

Also turned up to a press conference as Zorro!

H&V favourite Howard Hodgson was one of the callers on WM last night and mentioned Quique Sanchez Flores as a possible replacement for Bruce.  Wouldn't be a bad shout and has experience of managing in this country.

has Chelts offered any intel ?

André Villas-Boas

does Mendes know him as he is  portuguese ?

free agent  , still only 40 ,
excellent win rate with all his clubs.

I just think his name suits us as manager .

That’s not a bad shout actually. I’d forgotten about him.

He's well qualified but I think he's a bellend. It's a no from me.

has Chelts offered any intel ?

Yes, apparently one his underlings at work is being a twat and/or is taking the piss.

Has said 'underling' claimed he can't get to work due to a problem with the electronic gates outside his house?

As Brentford seem to be flavour of the month, the man who led the club from League One to promotion to the Championship in the 2013–14 season and finished the following season with the club's best second-tier placing for 80 years is currently out of work, he's not a Villa fan though.

Isn't he out of work because he's done a rubbish job at his last two clubs and left two out of his three clubs including Brentford in somewhat dodgy circumstances though?

whoever a new manager is and whenever he comes I only have two wishes

1 that he can build something sustainable, has some sort of plan that we can see developing and taking shape as the months click by, I don't even care if it takes time as long as we can see it happening

2 to be able to turn up at games believing we have at least a 50/50 chance of watching a bit of decent football being played

that's not to much to ask is it

Quite possibly but I know as much about him as the current Brentford manager, apart from he possibly isn't a Villa supporter.

who does he support ?

Could be a big factor in whether i throw my weight behind his appointment or not

How about a Sven/Terry combo?

Skiffle seems to be exactly where we are now. No thanks. Music has moved on.
