Next Manager Speculation and wishful thinking thread

[N'ZMAV]

Radio WM reporting that no official approach has been made by the club regarding SG.

he'll be in by 8pm then if that's the case.

I haven’t been excited about a manager since MON came in. The rest were meh.

I was more positive about Smith though compared the the other useless fuckers we had before him.

Exactly the same here. Although i was strangely optimistic with Smith, for no other reason than he was Villa and we’d just had for the most part 8 years of charlatans, f**kwits and journeymen (we’ll be there or thereabouts).

Gerrard is coming that seems certain, so we might as well support him and hope its the inspired choice than most of us cant see at the moment.
His first interview will be very interesting.

I would like him to be unveiled at 11am tomorrow. It would seem apt 'lest they forget' they've lost their manager.

I back them all until they give me reason not to

I hope its better than the “inspirational” ones he gave as england captain.

His first interview .....

1. Get a fucking translator in here will you
2. So about the Liverpool job you want Stevie....
3. Holy shit, what have we gone and done ........

The speech he gave at half-time in Istanbul must have been pretty good.

[London Villan]

Who were england playing that day?

[Beard82]

The more I think about it, the more I think it is just a way of getting a new, marketable, face for the project now Joes fucked off

It sounds like he plays a lot like Smith does, and has a set up similar to that.  I think he'll do his best and be like JT and professional.

I don't think he would achieve any more than Smith would - but I think this is a "commercial" appointment by our CEO rather than a footballing one.

It’s seems that plenty on the outside of Villa boards see this is a very good bit of business. We here seem to be in the minority on this one. Still I can’t say I’m getting in anyway more excited by the prospect.

Then again I was excited about Lambert, O’Leary and Sherwood.

And I was excited about Garde, not to mention those near-misses Solskjaer and Henry.

Me too with Garde.

Interesting or sheer coincidence that Liverpool's Sporting Director,Michael Edwards,has announced that he will leave at the end of the season.
Liverpool's recent success has been helped by getting in excellent support staff for Klopp.Critchley,ex Liverpool Academy,is doing well in charge at Blackpool.

Steven Gerrard: Aston Villa step up pursuit of Rangers manager

WM say nothing is going on.

BBC sport say we're stepping it up.

 

[N'ZMAV]

1/25 now on Gerrard.

For those of you objecting to a Scouser becoming our Manager/Head Coach
I would just like to point out that in my 60 years of following this great club of ours the two managers giving me the biggest thrill ,in terms of watching entertaining football, were born in Birkenhead and Old Swan - Merseyside
Steven Gerrard was born in Whiston some 12 and 6 miles away from the above locations
Lets not let Regionalism cloud our judgement 
He would not be my first choice but I will get right behind him (and maybe even cadge a lift off him to VP on match days )

Nobody is objecting to a Scouser. Where he was born is irrelevant.
