He has taken us to the next level, twice.  Promotion, survival, revival.  Doesn't mean he gets a free pass though.  Another opportunity in the transfer market this summer to move us up again and for us to be more consistent.

He’s took us as far as he can.  If we’ve got aspirations of being a top 6 club the owners need to get rid in the summer. To be a top 6 club you need a top manager, deano ain’t it I’m afraid

Utterly clueless comments. Smith deserves some criticism for tonights "performance" but to suggest we need to get rid, deary me.

Not clueless at all, if you think dean smith previously of Brentford and wallsall is the man to take us forward your the clueless one.

He reckons the subs worked well when they came on. No Dean, they absolutely bloody didn't.

He's done nothing but take us forward. From bottom half Championship to promoted, to staying up with a final, to top half side.

What the fuck does it matter if he was at Walsall or Brentford? He's at Aston fucking Villa and doing an excellent job.

He's probably thinking of Dean Smith who got us promoted from nowhere, kept us up and then pushed us into the top half of the table.

I have absolutely no idea what he was trying to accomplish with the subs.
The problem for me was with the wide players and had been all game.

I’m not saying he’s done a shit job, he’s been brilliant for us, what I’m saying is if we want to go the next level we need an elite manager, look at the top 8 now, apart from moyes all managers have won medals at the highest level, sorry but smith ain’t the man to take us forward if we have real ambitions

The top 4 is occupied by 1 manager who has medals that didn't come out of a Christmas cracker.

That's what makes the inconsistency so annoying though. Really good chance to break into the European places this year, but every time we look like doing so, we throw in another hopeless performance. Goal scoring is also becoming a real problem.

A season too early for us it seems. Inconsistent performances seem to be blighting most teams. West Ham are on a very good run but I bet it could quite easily change.

It seems for some people there's no gap between a manager meriting some criticism and deserving the sack.
