Next manager?

[DB]

Deano said on Talkshite this morning that you don’t turn down the Villa. If Smith was offered, no doubt he would take it. Not my choice mind.

I think we have to have faith and trust in the new owners.
They have done nothing to let us down so far, in any respect.

I know I wanted Bruce out sooner, but this is soon enough for us to recover and move forwards.
They backed him, they gave him time, they gave him a couple of chances and he blew it.
They have acted swiftly and decisively.
I have no fear that they are looking at the usual suspects, the old guard. I think they are far too clued up and ambitious. I also think they are not being swayed by the bullshit from the usual plaudits who are all as lazy and predictable as each other.

I think (and hope) this could be an exciting new chapter for us.....bring it on.

Cant find any links re Fonseca ruling himself out . Nothing about Moyes either

Yep , where has Zorro said no?

[Steve67]

Another left field choice, Michael O'Neill. Seems to be highly rated.

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Another O'Neill might be too much for some people here!

[TonyD]

Rodgers is better but only slightly better than the Moyes , Big Sam brigade.   So no for me.

If the owners appoint Moyes,  then they are truly mad. 

My top 3

Fonseca
Henry / Wenger
Deano Smith

[Risso]

I wouldn't be averse to Rodgers, but I do wonder how much of his reputation was built on him being lucky enough to inherit Suarez (a Dalglish signing?), and get almost a full injury-free season out of Sturridge.

It would get confusing. TSM, TSM 2, MON, MON 2.

Translates as

News circulated this Thursday in England, notably by the newspaper "Birmingham Mail", pointed to the interest of Aston Villa in Paulo Fonseca. However, a close source of the Portuguese coach denied A BOLA that this is even a hypothesis on the table, even because Paulo Fonseca does not consider exchanging a team that participates in the Champions League for an English 2nd Division.

It should also be noted that the news circulated gave account of the involvement of businessman Jorge Mendes in this alleged attempt by the heads of Aston Villa, but Paulo Fonseca is represented by Marco Abreu.

I know some Liverpool supporters who said he was okay but had his glass ceiling.  Sounds a bit like MON.   We don’t want another goodish but ultimately limited manager.

[Phil from the upper holte]

Dean Smith wants it. 100%

[themossman]

Suits you, sir.

[TonyD]

Dean Smith wants it. 100%

Doesn’t he just!

Yes. But the ceiling for Liverpool that he couldn't break through was winning the Premier League / being successful in the Champions League. We're looking for a manager to get promoted and reestablish us in the Premier League while putting in place a clear style of play. He's more than good enough for what we'd need over the next five years or so.
