I get the feeling he till coach the players he's given. He might get to chat about each player we sign but thing it will be a little like Spurs and newcastle (without being all french).

Isn't it strange how one can change his mind when it becomes a reality!?!?. I mean, I didn't want this too happen but now it has, I'm kind of glad it has

Pete colley reporting it now

He's also a massive tool.

And intensely unlikeable.

I'm surprised so many people "like" Sherwood.

His only good quality, imo, is his positive record at Spurs (which doesn't stand up under scrutiny, imo). His personality would be my main gripe with his appointment.

Had a re think. Bilic for me

If it's a avram grant I think I might punch someone in the face

Where's Trent gone? He's been very quiet for a worrying amount of time now. #findtrent

Oh yes me too. I want a young upcoming manager, the next big thing if you like but it's a risk at the moment. In the summer yes, now, we need to just survive

Curbishley - lol.

Care to elaborate?

Who has only ever managed two clubs (albeit one for a rather long time) and hadn't managed since 2008. Same with Gregory. Loved him until the dodgy dealings stories surfaced but health issues aside he has been out of the top flight too long. Don't care about premiership experience as long as the new guy has top flight experience. Championship punts can wait till the summer.

Curbishley - lol.

Curbishley for me until end of season

Lowton baker vlaar cisshoko

Sanchez

Westwood. Delph

Gil

Weimann benteke

Also my team would be

Guzan

Hutton okore vlaar cisshoko

Westwood

Gil. Delph

Agbonlahor. Sinclair

Big Ben

No way will cleverly start. Reading between the lines of what lambert said anyway.. I'm going for..

Guzan

Hutton okore Clark cisshoko

Westwood Sanchez delph

Gil. Benteke. Agbonlahor

I'd play vlaar over Clark, even tho he's been just as good but it's the experience thing. Just feel moe comfortable with him in there. Until 60 mins when he limps off at least

Happy with that to be honest. Sanchez worst games for us have been against the big sides. Benteke needs s kick up the arde. Plenty of pace and work rate in there. Keep it as tight as possible and bring on the beast after an hour all angry and dying to kick john terry in the head

Woke up this morning really thinking we can cause an upset here. We will win, mourinio will kick off and everything will be Rosie again until we lose to hull lol. The optimism definitely comes from the copious amount of vodka I drank last night coupled with getting up early this morning, so I'm still pissed I think. Anyway, I'm rabbiting now. 2-1 villa. Benteke delph hazard.... Now where's my sports direct mug, I need coffee

People thinking no Costa and no Fabregas will help probably thought the same of Sanchez for Arsenal.

Must help tho? It must be easier without those? These teams or squads are better than un. It's about who performed better i the day. U need to earn the right to win.

I just dont get Lambert and fans picking formations that leave us with no width or players who have no business out wide playing on the wing.

In Benteke we have one of the best aerial forwards in the league. We should be playing with out and out wingers firing crosses into the box and putting centrehalves on the back foot.

Get gil and sinclair out wide with sanchez and delph sitting in front of a back 4 with either gabby alongside benteke or cole or grealish in the hole (with sinclair gil and cole/grealish all swapping positions throughout) and pepper as many crosses as we can manage into the box.

Only when we start playing to our strengths will we start to push on. Have 6 players to hold a secure defence with the other 4 focussed on counter attacking is the way forward. Make use of our pace on the break and bentekes power and aerial ability and we could finish strongly.

Unfortunayely Lambery will send them out in the same manner he has all season: devoid of any guidance and using tactics that are neither appropriate for the opposition nor suited to the players he sends onto the pitch.

This is by no means the worst squad weve had in the Lerner era but i see us getting relegated this season thanks to Lamberts short sightedness and Lerners cowardice for not getting rid of a manager who has seemed out of his depth for over a year now.

I pray im wrong...

Defend for our lives and fly St them on the break. Essentially what we're best at

Lambert seems to have abandoned this strategy. It's passing for the sake of passing now with a high line in defence.

That's what I'd do, not saying it's what lambert will do

The pre game build up And as usual I'm all excited and think we can win, then 10 mins before kick off I start to shit myself and think we're going to get spanked. Anyway, I've changed my mind about the team id play. Pace pace pace. As much as we can get in

Front 3 allowed to break at pace and go wherever they like. As much as gabby is a limited footballer he's such an outlet for these games with his pace as we will be under lots of pressure no doubt. Vlaar comes in as I always feel more confident with his experience in there. Richardson nowhere near england please. Anywhere outside the border will do

Not being funny, a couple of days ago we were all saying what s good window we have had. Gil, Sinclair and delph signing. One loss (albeit a bad one) against a top, top team and that's all gone. I myself will judge when we're playing the hulls and crystal palace of this world, not arsenal and probably Chelsea. Keep the faith, it will come

Gil. Benteke. Weimann.

Gil and weimann given license to roam. Let's take it to these ****. 2-1 villa. Big Ben brace

In putting it out there again. If Trent hasn't denied it then there's some truth in it. I done it with Gil and he cryptically confirmed so here's hoping

He really can pick a player can lambert
