Next Aston Villa Manager

[Holte L2]

Poch or Rafa Benitez.

I feel we should have gone all out for Ancelotti as soon has he became available. We completely missed the boat there.

The tea are either on the way or arrived in Burnley so Smith has got tomorrow at least.
I am surprised he has survived the Watford debacle.
Interesting team selection tomorrow.

Hes not going anywhere until the end of the season at least, so best accept it and save on the stress levels. Its not good at the mo, but did any of us think it would be any different?

We were always facing an uphill struggle, and i cant think of the last playoff winners whom managed to survive.

[Davkaus]

Why is Poch not on the list? Is he that unrealistic?

Absolutely, unequivocally yes.

He's going to be pretty much the front runner for whatever huge jobs come up. Your Real's, Man United/Man City, Bayern.

The next few "elite" club vacancies that come up are probably his if he wants them. Why on earth would he rock up at VP? It's absolute fantasy.

Yes,
I thought the football and tactics would be a lot better than they are at the moment to be honest

Probably just me, but I really don't see what all the fuss is about with Pochettino. Spent loads, won nothing.  He did lift the aspiration level at Spurs to be fair but won nothing and started to go backwards.

Everything at Spurs comes with an added undeserved reputation. Players, managers, Daniel 'Played it beautifully' Levy...

BFR ? 😩

[ROBBO]

Poch got booted out as do most managers it would be good to see a list of managers that walked without compensation or retired like SAF, there wouldn't be many.

[Demitri_C]

I know bournmouth are not dojng great but i think we should gef eddie howe in. Bournmouth have injuries and are a small club he has doen a great job there.

We need a survival specialist who doesn't talk about triangles and traps. Staying up is so important. I don't want to lose Jack, I don't want to languish in the Championship.

I want somebody who will get the basics right- set pieces, defending, being hard to beat, organisation, game management.

If Smith and Terry were better at all of the above we would have 4 or 5 extra points (at least).

This , likes to talk a good game but we mostly look all over the place in matches.Take out Jack we would be rock bottom of the league I have no doubt of that.

[villa `cross the mersey]

Who on earth would want to take on the challenge ? We are a poisoned chalice. I'm beginning to think the owners have being expecting relegation from an early stage but fail to understand their " blind faith" in Smith who really does look out of his depth

Had Spurs regularly competing in the Champions League including getting to last year's final. Juande Ramos won a cup but was a dismal failure. Not a hope of him coming to us anyway.
