It could be Unai, it could be players, it could be both. Something needs to be fixed or changed though as we've spent the season looking more like a Gerrard side than the Villa under Unai we saw up to OT.

Short memories here. 1996 is our last trophy and 4th finish with a lot of absolute garbage since.

Careful what you wish for.

Exactly, it'd be like dumping Margot Robbie and wondering why you'd ended up with Sharon from Eastenders.

Emery is the right manager for us. Some of the players have let us down. Rogers has been atrocious since earlier this year. Can't keep starting him and expecting it to work. The lad needs to earn his place back in the side.

I'm happy to give Unai the rest of the season even if we don't finish top half or look like it. Provided we stay up (we will) then he deserves the time. Simple as that.

He's worked miracles with this club and a bad start to the season isn't enough for me to even question him let alone want him out.

No way does he go anywhere. No way.

Same. Let's just hope he wants to stay.

I can't believe some of these comments. Maybe O'Leary was right...

Out of interest, which comments are you referring to?

Think he's on about when O'Dreary told the Irish players the reason George Graham wasn't picking him at Arsenal was because he was jealous of the pug faced sugarbag's house.

Which shows how insular and delusional the knobhead was/is.

But based on the amount of times his words are cited on here, you'd think he was one of the great philosophers of our times.

He's hacked off with them, they're hacked off with him, and we're in the middle of it. Emotionally I agree with the idea of flogging any sulking wankers we've got in January and keeping Emery, but this can't go on until January, and it won't.

When I was at school, I had a milf thing for Sharon, bit then again I also had the same tingles down below for Karen Brady aswell.

Absolutely. Know I’ve questioned circumstances which he might go, but talk of getting rid at this stage is utterly ridiculous.

I can't speak to your latter paraphillia, but I once saw Sharon from Eastenders walking her beagle in Regent's Park, and she was really beautiful in the flesh (it was the mid-90s).

Great euphemism.

Rogers in the side on Thursday, turning in a performance like that and being picked two days later will sink the Manager. It's like playing with 10 men.

Stubbornness can be a blessing or a curse.

Unai’s refusal to change tactically might be his undoing. We keep doing the same thing, and it ain’t working.

No manager is untouchable. Big and bigger names have been fired by other clubs in England and around the world. It’s a results business and since the FA Cup SF, the odd result aside it’s been nothing short of a disaster. It needs to improve very fast. We have games against top PL sides coming up and on this form where we can’t beat last seasons lower half sides or promoted teams then we are going to get battered against Liverpool, Arsenal, Man City etc.
