I think he is done here. I am not against making a change, but the timing and potential replacement terrify me
-
We lost two home games last season. Thats the best Ive know in 40 years of watching the club - attendances wen't through the roof - wasn't good enough. I would bet that in 2 seasons Henry comes nowhere near that.
-
So Henry could surprise you - but Bruce couldn't ? If you want Bruce out fair enough - but to replace him with a total rookie, just over a week before the season starts and the best defence is 'he might surprise us'
-
Alan Nixon reckons it will be done in a couple of days....
-
Well Henry might be manager .....
-
I suppose 10th would pacify me. I just think he will come in, loose a couple of games, slag the players off in the press for not being fit enough , fall out with a couple of senior pro's - tell us all he is 'changing the ethos' - all the bad elements of Garde, Sherwood, RDM
-
Or maybe they invest £15m each at a guaranteed rate of return. We get cash now - they get paid every year - that would be a classic xia deal.
-
I can already see after wigan beat us at home - he shruggs 'it is not possible'
-
Yep - it would Zola replacing Rowett on Steriods
-
There are no certainties in football. but Theiry Henry failing at villa is about as close as you can get. -
-
If they both 'love football' why now ? - they aren't particularly young - and they would have had the means to do this years ago.
-
So a London based guy worth almost £7bn - buys non London club. Got to say I am still suspicious that this is the real deal - my fear is they are providing short term finance - so we don't get totally fleeced in the fire sales....hope I m wrong - perhaps I am too scared by the false dawn of Lerner - (I won't say Xia because I was always doubtful of him)
-
unless the decision has already been made - and this is where it get communicated ?
-
OK - whose the new CEO then ?
-
Really - much prefer a dedicated CEO - lets not forget this bloke is worth close on £6bn - he has invested £30m tops in Villa. He won't be putting too many hours into what for him is a small investment.
-
Both Him and Xia said a lot of things. They lied ...period.
-
Hmmmm - a surprise - but does say he is London based - does this mean no CEO then ?
-
My point still stands - mid table finishes with Brentford and Walsall.
-
ok - well we will know by wednesday.!
-
like I said there are later quotes - when he says the meeting could happen as early as tuesday
-
Thats my fear as well - Lerner wanted Jurgen Klinnsman - but settled on MON
-
Ah ....Dean smith who has midtable finishes with Brentford and Walsall and concede goals for Fun - its a wonder no one has snapped him already !
-
If you want to gamble\ take chances - then Nathan Jones from Luton - would take some getting though.
-
The big spending of liverpool often slips under the radar - IMO on a ratio of money spent to trophies won they must be least productive club in the prem. ?
-
Read it carefully - there are two sets of quotes going around in the later reports he said " a meeting with new owners could happen as early as Tuesday. "
