Next Manager Speculation and wishful thinking thread

VT and Eastie convinced its going to be Stevie G

Welcome, Paulo Fonseca.

Paulo's away in Mauritius with Isabella and their three little ones on a mini-break. He gets back to Lisbon at 15.35 on Wednesday.

Isn't Isabella Fonseca the name of Martin Amis's wife?

Kind of. Isabel, I think.

Ah, yes that's the one. Would still have her over Gerrard in the dugout, nevermind her namesake Paulo.

I’ve said previously I don’t trust Purslow I think he’ll make an easy lazy appointment That suits himself
Looks like we’re gonna find out sooner than I thought If my fears are founded

Let's just wait and see. I'd convinced myself that they were going to stick with Smith this morning, so let's just see what happens.

well we haven’t got any other choice mate
But fingers crossed eh

Because there isn’t an outstanding candidate, I would give one of the unemployed managers a deal to the end of the season, (we’d have an option for another year).  They get a “massive” bonus if they keep us up.  All parties should win and be sufficiently motivated.

So take your pick from Nuno/Koeman/Fonseca/Farke

I just feel we will get a better manager in the summer.

Maybe Koeman or Fonseca but it is a big no from me regarding Nuno or Farke. Especially Farke unless we are admitting we will go down and then try to come straight back up again.

Which airline?   And what biscuits do you want with this bong?

I can't endanger my sources by telling you the airline. Rich Tea.

You don’t get this sort of cerebral, highbrow stuff on Small Heath Alliance.

My latest throw of the dice:  Ralf Rangnick for this season/next whilst he grooms a coach to takeover so he can assume his current DoF type position. 
This would largely make Lange redundant though I think.

What is Sven up to these days?

Surely a manager that suits himself is one that will bring success to Villa? Ultimately that’s his job.

I don’t think he will consider anyone outside of his narrow little orbit
But like Rizzo says we’ll have to wait and see

Expecting an announcement tomorrow.

What about Erik Ten Hag of Ajax? He's supposed to be going to Man Utd though, but it's the sort of the "under the radar" thing our owners would do, to get hold of him.

I dunno John. He's appointed two foreigners to the DoF position, and has gone big on modern types of coaches (with 'mixed' results admittedly). The appointment will show the way the owners and Purslow are thinking though, long term.

Nothing highbrow about it, mate. She's merely the Uruguayan Karren Brady.

I worry he's a starfucker and we'll end up with fucking Gerrard.

Not a chance, might as well try and hire Guardiola.

Heard something?!
