Are Villareal better without Emery? Seems like it.

I checked in on their forum and posters were saying it just goes to show what a charlatan Emery was.

He's the manager who won them their only major trophy in their history.

A sign of a good manager is being able to leave a club in a far better state than what you found it in.

I saw that and I could just make out one post referring to him as tactics Tim and a cowardly version of Southgate. ;)

Building a team that’s getting better and better as season progresses is some achievement. Well done Unai.

Let’s see if they get to the Champions League final any time soon. Then we’ll know.

I would have been surprised if he wasn't being as most other managers have already been sacked this season.

They should introduce a Sacking of the Season award, so even the losers can be winners.

That caretaker manager at Spuds would win surely? That was a hoot.

That was the funniest, sacking the caretaker, marvellous stuff. Gerrard was the best in terms of outcomes, though.
