daft

I am going to venture a guess and say that is satire.

If you take that hit for us to keep Dyche away, your balls will be Villa legends for ever.

Yeah, it is a results game. Get results or get out.

Ah, I see. Yeah, I can agree with that. I think it is one thing do dislike a manager, but some of the vitriol you see aimed at managers under pressure is sometimes chilling.

Thing is, I think we need to look outside 'proven PL experience' for this to work. We have history, but we aren't currently in a position to offer coaches CL or the worlds largest fan base as a stage, but we are a decent prospect for the right man. Could that be Ruben Amorim? Quite possibly, or someone like him that is up and coming. Gerrard had a few years in a league that is nowhere near top tier in Europe. Someone with Rubens profile at least has a few years in a better league, and have tried their hand at European football. There are more people out there like Amorim, up and coming and hungry, and personally I believe that's where we have to go fish. A modern coach that understands the importance of man management as well as tactical nuances and analytical skills. This combined with a skill for getting the right people in to work in the coaching team is essential. Due diligence is key in this appointment, and I do hope we get someone that can finally help us kick on.

Interesting if he said that. I have no real idea what he bases that on. Weird man.

I mean as long as it’s clean and free of nasty deceases I say go for it.

Oh God I died. I think he can take care of us for the weekends as well.

Somehow that doesn't really inspire confidence in Amorim's abilities...

Me too.

Again, it's way to early to tell. Lots of points left to grab.

Too early for that.

Tedesco?

We are not in a relegation battle.

Maybe if we can get Tim as an assistant as a bit of a safety net.

Dude, when it comes to prospective managers you are proper slut. You fall in love twice a week!

I just think he's a Champions League manager. Not necessarily for a PL club. But it makes sense. Guys like him wants CL football just as the best players do I suppose.

So if he's already said that, why are we talking to his agent? I swear, people making this stuff up should at least try and make the fantasies coherent.

Stu?

I had no **** idea of who he was before we were linked so I struggle to be excited tbf.

I think that's a safe bet since we aren't a Borg collective. You'll always at least one little **** that will be unhappy even if it was Pep.

Agreed. On the last part, we'll see. Still lots of points up for grabs.

My theory is that even top 10 is wildly over optimistic, but we'll see now that we're about to get a better manager.

Please stop talking about Dyche. It's making me queasy.

Yeah, the consensus on this board seems to be we have a top-10 worthy squad underperforming under Gerrard.
