ok, he have then finish the book -attacking is best defence - It seems to me we win a point (for ML a draw is a win). Bolton has equalised, it don't look good.

Totally agree. But Lerner is greater problem.

:cry:

For England, I hope you mean Alex Ferguson.

If we get A. Young for a loan, he could take one or two dive for us. Wigan is on good run. Is is question of qpr or bolton. I belive we are safe, so I think we will be happy with draw.

Our worst nightmare would be 1-0 defeat. Mc would say: decent performance, great defeat only one goal. Lerner would think: wow, this Mc is great manager. They just won us 1-0.

Poor performance, but we will not be relegated. Two points in two games is enough. But we don't play well, in fact we play terrible. I missed the foul in the end, why was second goal for stoke not a legal goal?

If we want a draw, we should play 10-0-0. I believe this will be 3-0 comfortable victory for Liverpool.

"Villa have the worst form of the basement battlers, the weakest goal threat and a manager who took Birmingham down last time around." We might win Bolton, West Brom and Norwich. Maybe this is too positive. I believe the club is in huge problem. Lerner is not doing good job. We had O'Neill we lost him, than we had Houllier ok he left for personal reason. Nothing to blame. Then Lerner best choice is McLeast. Maybe is best, in long run, if we will relegated. Than we have too build up, and make a decent plan. With O'Neill we need some serious spending for 2-3 really good players. The club was not ready for serious spending.

No. We have 13 games left and need about 10 more points to be safe we'll get that even with him in charge. The relegation battle is between the bottom 5. I'm worried. Not because we will be in bottom three. I'm worried we will not! If AM "safe" the club from relegation, I'm worried owners will be happy enough. We get one or two decent players not more. If we relegated, is that worst case scenario?

Clueless Manager? What can we say about Lerner? Soccernet.com Please refer to the posting guidelines about linking to other sites.

So why wait until the end of the season when we could berelegated by this clown? It will be much cheaper to buy the club in end of the season. But I don't belive this Qatar story. Too good to be true.

Four wins in six games for sunderland. O'Neill as next manager.

I saw last 20 minutes. Really bad, waste of time. Nothing was happening. Swansea played better and deserve 3points. Second goal, sh*****t. This was Swansea first away victory. From today every team will go to Villa Park and get easy 3points. We need something more than Kean in january.

Did we really watched the same game? 2nd have must be really improvement. I just saw 1st, had to go to sleep i missed the 1st half but was happy with what i saw 2nd half We tamed Stoke and made them look crap (which they are not) Good. In didn't like 1st half. My worries, we don't play good football. With MON we played well, and had chances in every game. Well I had at least good feelings. Now I don't.

Decent or good performance! This game was poor, slightly better but still poor. We might be best of the rest.

We have no chance. We can either do A) try something new, and probably loose big. try playing 10-0-0, and hope for 0-0 draw. If you bet on Villa victory, you will get 4.75 for every pound.

"Man of the match" This must be joke. Well I have to say none of the above.

I woted Moeys, but last time I woted for Ancelotti. We should get some german manager. I have no idea how realistic I am.

Ok we have no idea who will be next manager. But is this a good news? http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/amateur-football/2011/06/07/aston-villa-will-take-their-time-finding-a-replacement-for-gerard-houllier-100252-28832299/ Of course it is not good to rush to much. But we can be last club in the line if we wait too long. If you ask the managers who is best club in England. I doubt they will say Villa in top 6. We need someone highly qualified and respected. Someone who can get us among the best. If that is what we want.

It's the fact he's one of the best managers around and he would attract quality players across the globe. I don't expect him to sign 'superstars', but players who are underrated that can be the golden spine of the team. I have faith in his ability to adapt to our situation and build us into a lethal force where we could possibly give the 'top 4' a scare. I don't think none of us expect him to win the league, especially in his first season. When he does leave us, another quality manager may be interested seeing as we were worthy enough to attract Carlo and it could follow suit. He comes across as extremely likeable as well. No arrogance or none of that BS. Capello is a different situation because he's limited to English players. Carlo can still attract a few quality players I bet. Those are my points anyway. And Ancelotti is on this 50 best manager list We could dissagree to this list who is number 1,2 or 3. But be at top 50 manager list is something. Ancelotti would bring us to higher level. If Lerner bring Ancelotti, it would bring him to higher level.

I like this post. This is so 100% right. It's the kind of appointment that could change the club - in a similar way to Chelsea signing Gullit in the mid 90s Ancelotti would be a great lottery prize. If Lerner bring maestro Ancelotti to the club. Lerner would rightly be King Lerner

50% is amazing. Ancelotti moves closer to A.V. appointment Maybe old news. This is really exciting.
