Yeah can't see any other option than Scenario 2.

Actaully when you put it like that i do agree. I think we should give him the whole of next season, and see what kind of player we have at the end of next season..

Agreed, we would only lose 2 mill.. And get another injury prone player of the wage bill. cut our losses. Or.. we could keep him, try to play him in his favoured role, keep him as a rotation option (as I doubt he's on high wages) and then IF he picks his form back up, we'll either have a quality, young player on our hands, or we can sell him for a higher fee. yeah that could make sense.. the problem now is he has a reputation of being an Injury prone player.no one is gonna buy him knowing he is so fragile, one wrong turn he could be out for a whole season.

The CEO praising the manager. Absolutely scandalus. Its the fact that its a blatant loads of crap ! it wont matter what he does tbh as he's not good enough ! Someone tell me what was Faulkners previous job Catch my drift ? Why is it a load of crap? One impression Mcliesh gives me is that he cares. Ok great he cares, Look where that has got us.. Simple fact is we can get a manager in Who cares, and knows what he is doing. Another Impression i get from McLeish is he doesn't know what he is doing.. he always look like he is about to be sacked, when he is on the touchline.. You can see the worry all over his face.. Simple fact it he doesn't know what he is doing.

Ah ok cool, yeah just looked it up.. thats pretty good, we have him for our next massive game..

keane's gone now i think.

Agreed, we would only lose 2 mill.. And get another injury prone player of the wage bill. cut our losses.

Someone put Laursen's management stats on here and he was having a nightmare. Ok maybe give him a couple of years of managment before we hire him, But i still believe he will be a successful manager in the future. Just needs the right bunch of players.

haven't seen enough of this guy to judge, But clearly is rated highly... think i would like to see him get a good run in the team.

Wigan can be unpredictable though.. I saw them play Man city at the DW, and gave them a right go.. Unlike us. same again against Liverpool and chelsea.. They both drew there.. All im saying is wigan can be unpredictable.. I mean we should win.. But im guessing draw in that one.

I personally would hire Laursen as manager to replace AM.. A bit of a risk, but i reckon he could sort the defence out....absolute villa legend, that is sorely missed.. Come back Laursen to save Villa!! that would be amazing. already has the fans backing.

Thats pretty Dark man..lol the Alex mcleish aircrash investigation special on national geographic :lol:'

Thats pretty Dark man..lol

Guess your all discussing AM going over to the US lol.. i really don't see the point in this.. he should be working on getting the team ready for what is his most important next couple of games, What good is going to come of him going over to the US and talking with the coach of a team that is one of the worst in the NFL.. great

Wow after seeing that points thing, its looking pretty despressing tbh...these next 4 games should seal AM fate with our club.

Im still baffled why we didn't go for Woy Hodgson, Great manager I believe he would have done better than McLeish with these players.

Ohh sorry, yeah im a year ahead lol. its was 06/07 We finished 1th... But still this is turning out to be a nightmare season.. Just want it to end already. Yeah that season we finished with 42 points on he board.

at least that season we finished 11th.

This remind you off a certain team that play in Claret and Blue lol.. Except that teams don't even need to attack us constantly to win. Yeah very true, we just invite them on.. With how bloody deep we sit trying to soak up pressure. Eventaully you are going to concede if you defend so deep. E.G Man city on sunday.. look how deep we were . and when we did clear the ball it was no good because it just came straight back... we needed to press them high up the pitch..

Made some good arguments there tbh, but here is a question.. What happens if he loses the dressing room? ( assuming he already hasn't lost it).. thats a hard thing to win back.. when you lose confidence in your manager, how are you suppose to go out there and play with confidence, when the manager who picks the tactics has set out for a 0-0 ..and defend so deep that there is no chance of getting past the half way line.. Apart from when you go 1 nile down and Finally start attacking but realize, you started to late for example man city.. We started attacking in like the last 10 mins.. What is the point? every time we got the ball clear it just cam straight back at our defense.. I thought personally he got McLeish in to Sort out the defense and Steady the team. Well so far it has not worked.. our defense is no better than last season..

Great words.

This remind you off a certain team that play in Claret and Blue lol..

To quote a very famous song, Im guessin this should be running through McLeish and Lerner's minds a the Moment Should I stay or should I go now? Should I stay or should I go now? If I go there will be trouble And if I stay it will be double This is 100% true for villa at he moment, there will be double trouble if he stays.. please leave lol.

Yeah to be fair more people are defending him, than slating him... I mean against that midfield most players would struggle.. lets judge him in 5 years, Not on 1 game against , what is arguably the best midfield in the PL ..
