The most successful clubs go out and get the best managers. It quite simply is the most important position in the football club. Time and time again Aston Villa appoint managers who have shown some promise in the lower divisions and then seem surprised when it all goes wrong when the pressure of managing at the highest of levels begins to show.We never learn do we? Shrewsbury, Norwich, Small Heath and Brentford do not give the incumbent the required level of preparation for the responsibility of managing Aston Villa.Villa's most successful managers in my time: Saunders, Taylor, Atkinson and Little had already gained the necessary skills to be successful at the highest level. Next time we appoint a manager, whenever that may be, and I suspect it will be sooner rather than later I hope that we learn from history.UTV

I think a lot of us expected the last 3 to be fairly straightforward, up until their form changed in the short period before playing us.I'd like it to work, I think it could work but we need better players and the manager to have a wank and clear his head.Haha!Brilliant solution!
