Reivax_Villa

The staff have not managed him properly imo. The boy is nearly 20 and has hardly played first team football. He should be going out on loan. He is lacking a lot of experience for first team football. He could bang 50 goals for the under 23's it still won't make him a better player. He needs to play non-league or league two football and graft it out.

3 wins in a row.. Against weak opposition and we still look unconvincing. I just cannot see this team getting promoted with Bruce in charge. It's shameful that we continue to look this poor for nearly two years of his management. We will be found out against better opposition in this league. Let's see how long Bruce and co can ride this gravy train for..

This match is just showcasing the problems that bruce has brought upon himself. He has been here for nearly two years and he hasn't signed a centre back for more than a one year contract.. And he talks about stability..

??

This club has not been good at managing young players for a while. Murphy should have went on loan last season as well as our other youngsters. We continue to keep our prospects playing under 23 football. They need first team exposure somewhere else.

Well it doesn't matter how we play As long as we win.. ??

I will continue to support Bruce however i am aware that his limitations as a manager has shown throughout our performances here. I watch enough football to know the impact a manager can have on the first team. Bruce had his impact, which was stabilising us, making us tougher to beat and ensuring that our players are committed to the cause, something that was previously lacking and was the cause to our demise. There will always be a split between fans on Bruce some are content by winning by any means necessary whereas other fans want us to have substance and purpose to how we play. Someone mentioned what impact has Biesla had at Leeds so far.. He has had a great impact to the way Leeds play, that is a different Leeds united to the one we saw last season. The same conversation took place last year when Nuno Santo took over from Wolves over the summer and changed the clubs philosophy and got them promoted, Leeds could do the same. Due to unforeseen circumstances this summer we were never in a position to change our manager. Our major problem is that we have flattered to deceive and we have done so for the past year, we have played poorly and scraped wins. We do not play attacking football, we do not have patterns of play. For me personally as much as it gripes me to see Villa play in the manner we do, I have to accept that Bruce will get the remaining loan window to bring in players. He will be given time to bed them in and then depending on form this will determine his future here. If by mid December we are faltering in our pursuit of promotion, ideally a head coach with some stature with new ideas should be brought in.

Better players being managed by a limited manager..

Either way its not going to end well. He will either get sacked this season or he will get us promoted waste millions and then get sacked..

We wouldn't cope. He would outthought which would result in us being outplayed. Cardiff are similar to us and they will be the team that would go down because of their limited style.

I was watching MOTD last night and the array of talent and the style of play that these teams had. Teams like Watford, Palace, Bournemouth. Teams you would consider to be average at that level looking miles ahead from where we are. If Bruce managed to get us promoted. I would dread to think how we would look as a premier league team.

Neves is a top player. Reminds me of Pirlo. He is easily a £70 million player and should be at an elite club.

GOAAAAL

Number 1 is Vacant I reckon Bruce will be signing a new GK.

He is ambitious, he may feel that playing premier league football next season is key for his development. He also is probably looking forward to playing with a greater quality footballers and being coached by Pochettino. I guarantee when he was watching England at the world cup he thought.. I'm good enough to be playing at this level, i need to prove myself next season at a higher level.

Villa fan or not Grealish's career means more to him. He has the ability to further his career and i would not hold that against him. I hope we get some really good money for him if he does leave.

If Hugill is the man we bring in and we provide very good delivery for him we will damage a lot of teams away. Hugill and Snodgrass would be very good additions.

I said this at the start of the year. I cannot see Bruce playing him to be fair. I will go far as saying he will leave and become a solid premier league player in the future.

As much as i like Snodgrass, i just do not see the logic behind what Bruce does. Snodgrass needs to have a full back to support him. The way Bruce has set us up during pre season i just cannot see him fitting into this formation.

If we sign Snodgrass, how will he fit into this 3-5-2?

They don't either ?

Good decision. He gets another fair crack, if he doesn't deliver he will be gone.

Any manager that comes into this club before this season has a big task. If we are looking to build for the future, the foundations need to be laid and if Henry fits that mould then thats it. If we want to go for a big push for promotion this season then bruce has to stay because any change to the first team will disrupt our start to this season. I feel like there are better options than Henry that can lay real foundations at this club. This job is too big for Henry.

Grealish needs to be playing at a higher level to fulfil his potential. We just need to get a good price for him. Staying for another season will hold career back.
