no far from it. Convinced Henry will fail though
-
My reasoning I think he will be shit. And once again we are the laughing stock of the football world. I hope the good lord intervenes and it doesn't happen. If it does I wish him every ill known to man.
-
rocket polisher. A disgrace to the history of our club and those responsible for his appointment should hang there heads in shame. We are Aston Villa with a proud history a famous old club - we shouldn't be appointing little rocket polishers like this into senior positions. Hope he <deleted> off pretty quickly PLEASE DON'T CIRCUMVENT THE SWEAR FILTER - NV
-
Pretty sure we are down to a choice of two - so if you want Bruce out you are going to get Henry (personally I think its done and we are just finalising things)
-
We watched the world cup hey lets buy a football club we want a world cup manager - ah theres one ! Thats the level of thinking at our club.
-
Doubt if he will get\need a meeting now. It would seem our overlords are tying up the Henry deal - then Bruce will get a phone call. I heard at the weekend despite Bruce saying he had a meeting planned for Tuesday - he didn't - he was just hopeful of meeting the new owners in the next few days.

Big Sam " grinded" Everton to a decent placing in the PL last season. I wouldn't view a move for Henry as ambitious - he is out of work - and openly looking for management position. A move for Eddie Howe or Arsen Wenger would be ambitious - but not Henry (I would arge its a particularly stupid idea myself) Lets not forger these two billionaires have invested a small amount by there scale of wealth. Every chance they get bored of it in 18 months , when they have to pay out Henry his 3 year contract @ x million a year -

Were not that lucky
-
because we had sherwood and remi garde
-
Where on earth have you got that idea from ?
-
It won't be a masterstroke. Some billionaires watching the world cup - decide to buy a football club - they want a manager from the world cup - and low and behold one becomes available. sure we might get lucky , but it doesn't bode well for future if that is the depth of thinking.
-
Does it ? - I think we are going down the immediate failure route !
-
Its bit like buying a used car from one of those shady parking lots - it might be all right.
-
I never understand this - he will get his chance - the problem will be winning football games often enough
-
Really think you over analysing - a manager is appointed to win games - if he doesn't he gets the sack. What you seem to be saying If Henry fails we should get another manager to come in to carry on his work ????? - personally when Henry fails I would hope we appoint someone to come in and do things differently. Can I be first to say - "He would be a good manager - we just need a defensive coach"
-
It looks like it will be Henry - my question who do we get in come January when he has totally bombed. Has to be Big Sam
-
Henry wouldn't a Steve Round replacement would he ? -hope springs eternal
-
I can honestly see Henry lasting less than a season.
-
Precisely - and a bit worrying that our new overlords don't see that. could easily end up in a relegation scrap
-
He wants the change the culture, and the ethos of the club and give us a real playing identity, lay foundations for the future with modern coaching methods - and any other cliche these managers who barley win a game talk about.
-
Well one of owners is worth £7bn - and Nathan Jones at Luton is an up and coming manager. Henry isn't even a manager - let alone up and coming.
-
He was IMO never going to walk. The novelty factor of Henry will be long gone by mid October.
-
i agree but a novice just over a week before the season starts ?
-
Are talking Henry or Ole Guuner solkasker ?
-
If you believe that - I would hop over to paddy power with a sizeable wedge of cash
