Next manager?

[footyskillz]

Marc Overmars currently Ajax Director of Football has tweeted photos of tickets to tomorrow's game..

Surely he’s going for the football fest that awaits.....

If that's the case then it's Henry as headcoach people !
The old overmars Henry partnership
Unless we finally sign bergkamp

Dave woods was right all along

It the jump straight to top attitude that bothers me with someone like Yorke (along with the fact that I suspect he'd be shit) and it's why i wouldn't take Terry either.  I'm ok with someone who has done an assistant or coaching job and looking for their first manager job though so I'm ok with Henry and Arteta (I think the latter will do well for someone very soon).

You can see that the likes of Terry, Lampard and Gerrard have the credentials though, leaders, captains, brilliant proffesionals that had long careers at the very top. Yorke made it at the Villa, had a couple of good years at Man Utd and then became something of a playboy footballer in his late twenties onwards. He also never lead or captained anyone as far as I can remember.

He'll be lucky to get face value

Needs to learn up his cockney accent or he'll get a fackin slap.

Dwight Yorke. He's spouting again...

Well done to him for passing his level B coaching badge but if he wants to be Villa manager so badly and apparently has done for quite a while why hasn't he bothered cutting his teeth in management at any level to prove himself. If a fondness for the club was enough to qualify you for the job all of us on here would be on a shortlist along with Tom Hanks, Nigel Kennedy and Prince William.

I think you're forgetting that well known Villa fan David 'I'm forever blowing bubbles' Cameron.

It's fake.

Lol! Please not Moyes...

The problem is we are not as an attractive proposition as a majority of fans think.

I understand most fans only see the good in the club, that's natural. But there is some huge delusion going on with some of these suggestions.We won'tbget someone like Benitez, Dyche,Howe etc. Why would they leave where they are?

Sad fact is due to half a decade or more of mismanagement, poor decisions etc we find ourselves looking and having to consider not the most sexy or glamourous appointments as the most viable ones.

[Chris Jameson]

His spelling of "manager" leaves something to be desired, too.

I see "manager" written as "manger" so often on various websites, in books, newspapers etc.

Moyes has not been contacted.

It's not Moyes. Thank God.

He’s odds on now

Just heard from my son who has a source who works at Villa and he says it’s definitely going to be Moyes

Glad we've cleared that one up then!

ha ha
me and adds have been disagreeing on here for the last two years no need to stop now

I hope just this once you're wrong, John.

The Overmars thing is a fake - I think. The Official Villa Instagram account posted a picture of some tickets to the Millwall game and then an un-verified (ie without the blue tick) account claiming to be Marc Overmars posted the exact same picture...

Roberto Martinez has said that he is not aware of any contact between us and Henry.

I can confirm that I too am unaware of any contact between us and Henry.

Last time I was approached about - and took - a new job, my current employer was also the last to know!

If, and it's a big if, we aren't in the shit over Financial Fair Play, we are one of the most attractive clubs around. Guaranteed millions in wages. A potentially huge transfer kitty. Famous stadium, large fanbase, massive potential.

Only downside is that, in order to start tapping into that potential, you have to inspire us to finish above pointless teams like Middlesbrough and Brentford, and get us promoted. It's hardly cracking Enigma.

Absofuckinglutely loads of top class managers would be enticed by that, if we make it sound attractive.

Or we could just talk ourselves down, like some of our own fans do, and settle for some shite like Moyes or a total punt like Henry.

Yeah but you weren't responsible for recently promoting him to Assistant Coach of the Belgium national side. Bobby M was.
