Reading through his interviews etc I would still go for Fonseca. I think his philosophy is to get the midfield on the front foot and attack in a 4-3-3 primarily, which suits our players. The fella that was at United and Dortmund and is now at Roma said he's obsessed with tactics in the same way Tuchel was at Dortmund too, so he clearly thinks and considers the game.

Does Dyche cut his cloth accordingly or does he play that way out of choice. They can play good stuff, they ripped Everton to shreds last season.

We need organisation and some real structure and nouse. There's a really good squad here, £100m to spend, 40k every other week. Pressures and opportunities seldom found.

He wouldn't be my first choice, but at present Smith's presiding over the worst football in the Premier League. Our 'style' is punts out of defence and long throws from Cash. Smith makes Dyche look ike Guardiola.

He wouldn't be mine either. I think I'm being wooed by the idea that if we could organise ourselves defensively we'd sort out 90% of our problems and climb the table.

They should have sacked him by now. I am very worried we are going to waste a good 2 weeks where we could have got anothed manager in to work with the players for the Brighton  game

Its pointless keeping him for brighton game.

Our ability to keep the score down last season was a massive part of our success. Not only can we not do that this year, we are rarely capable of scoring one let alone more goals to draw games let alone win them.

We have to score 2 or 3 just to get a point. Problem isn't the defence per se, its the shambles in central midfield. The structure of them, the running and critically ball retention are huge issues.

McGinn cannot play his natural game without 2 behind him, as he gives it away too readily and it is always high up the pitch.

F**k it, let’s get Simeone in. He must be bored at Athletico by now, new challenge etc.
Sorry mate but the chances of us getting Simeone are about the same as your location: Absolute Zero. He is to Atletico what Fergie was to Utd - if not even more seeing as he played for them too. He’s a title winner and Champs Lg elite level manager and I’m afraid that’s not the pond Villa are fishing in.

Someone like Potter probably is about as good as we can hope for right now.

Whoever it is, hope he has the balls to make a cheeky loan offer for that Grealish chap.

I hate Dyche. I don't understand all the righteous indignation around divers and cheats and so on, when there's so much tolerance for managers who preside over 'styles' that wreck the careers of other professionals as Dyche and Pulis do. Should we ask Wesley if we should appoint him? The man's a violence-loving unprofessional smug backwards noxious ginger little gobshite and I don't want him within 1000 miles of VP.

Put you down as a maybe?
