Whoever the next Mgr is, will have many restrictions taking over from Bruce just like he did from previous mgrs re players chosen and wages paid. I just really cannot understand the owners allowing 70k a week to be paid to Bolasie and not being worried about the impact of financial fair play . They wouldn’t be familiar with it and neither would out ceo, I just hope they’ve been given great advice, by who I’m really not sure

Anyone with any sense would be advised to stay well away from Villa Park, the only thing big about us now is our wage bill.

Its going to take a hell of a lot more than just tinkering with this shower to turn it into a team.

I just can't see who of any quality would want it. We're an established Championship team paying premier league wages.
The last sentence is very true.
In this league,there are a lot of sides with the same sort of potential ;Derby,Stoke,WBA,Boro,the Sheffield clubs,Forest and even Blues,who with good management could look to emulate what Bournemouth and Watford are achieving.Then you look at how massive Leeds and Villa could be.And Villa have some of the richest owners in football.
If FFP had realised some of its worst horrors and we had been forced to sell Chester,Grealish and some other experienced players,would our current league position been any worse under a decent manager who had to play some of the youngsters.
A mess of Bruce's making.But we have got rid of a dinosaur.Time to go forward.


well FFP has yet to come into play so we've still got that to look forward to. I didnt agree with it but can understand owners sticking with Bruce given the state we were in but looking like a lot of money has been committed on the loan deals.

I kust hope they don't go for broke like Xia and put club in danger again. Aside from centre backs the new manager needs to work with what we've got and probably offload a few

Have heard Moyes  has removed his name from the vacancy.

Say what you want about David Moyes but this is an indication of just how difficult the Villa job really is.

Or that he knows he’s got no chance, so he’s trying the save face.

The new manager is surely going to  one to the conclusion that we will attack better with one or two of our £46m worth of wingers on the pitch and one or two of our strikers, like at the same time.

I think the FFP penalty is overplayed, is it likely to be more than 12-14 points? With a proper manager that’s easily recoverable if we’re still in the division next year. Bruce has been costing us 1-2 points in most games this year.

This whole points deduction is a myth at the minute, not happened to anyone. Even blues havnt had theirs

Not really. The GK is being hampered by a dreadful defence

When I was googling yesterday in an attempt to find something that'd stop john e worrying himself to death, I saw this BBC headline come up in the 'news' results...
"David Moyes pulls out of running for Aston Villa job".
On closer examination, it transpired that it was dated 2016.

I wonder if whoever you heard from has spotted the same outdated article?

That was the ridiculous thing today. I know MacDonald is fatally discredited as a first team manager but to set us up like that in a definition-of-insanity, Bruce esque manner was pathetic.

I don't get how he can be so good with the U-23s and so criminally abysmal with the first team.
