Dodgyknees Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 And btw, if you are praising him for getting us to Wembley where we were thrashed. I hope you aren't anti-Bruce, as he took HULL to Wembley and almost beat Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morley_crosses_to_Withe Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) Sherwood has had his bried spell of trying to be football manager and will now just drift into obscurity. Although he did actually gave us a few months of fun, which is more than we can say about some of the other lot we've had the misfortune of managing us like AMcL, RDM and Garde. The former was just the antithesis of fun. RDM had us playing some okay(ish) stuff, but ultimately failed because he pissed money up the wall without any consideration as to squad balance and how it should be shaped. Garde - I don't know what he is. I still don't know if he's actually a football manager, or someone Lerner got on the cheap to pretend he was such. He showed absolutely nothing apart from how much of a mope he was when he didn't get any money in Jan. I'm sure when Wenger retires he'll admit that Garde was just a wind up and he only recommended him for the lolz. The Ali Dia of football managers.

I suppose it's a pointless argument, because at the end of the day they were all shit, but for me Sherwood was worse than Garde. He achieved essentially the same results with a fairly large budget, whereas Garde failed on nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 He's a fool, clearly a prick and not a football manager. And yet he provided the most enjoyable period of the last 6 years. What does that tell you about the rest of the managers we've had around him? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherwood isn't a football manager, but he at least imitated one for a short time, whilst the rest looked like anything but one. I'll also add that I reckon if Garde would've been made manager when Sherwood got the job, we'd have sunk like a stone that very year. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted February 13, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) Yet on the other hand I'd wager if garde got the job in the summer instead of halfway through the season, we'd have been far better off than we ended up under Sherwood. Garde was shit. But taking over what he took over I'm not sure there's a manager in the world who could have done anything with us. Sherwood had ruined us by that point, yet he'd had a summer and £50million to prepare the team. Edited February 13, 2017 by Stevo985 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 for me the list of recent shitness at the moment is starting with the worst 1. Black/Di Matteo /Garde 2. McLeish 3. Bruce 4. Lambert 5. McDonald 6. Sherwood 7. Marshalls (because they have 100% record in charge) an absolute horror show of managers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 1 di matteo 2 Sherwood 3 garde 4 bruce 5 lambert Lambert was no way the worstime. He did shit but under some tough restrictions.

Zatman Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Remi Garde 2 wins and one of most embarrassing performances in Villa Premier League history after the Chelsea 8-0 and is ranked higher than a manager that won a cup semi final and beat Spurs at White Hart Lane a stadium we have won one other previous win since 2000 makes sense I suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southampton away was one of the worst performances in history in my opinion the 6-1 was utterly embarrassing. The high line was so embarrassing and sums up Sherwood as a manager, what's worse is he never changed it. Clueless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 yes the really issue then was the team were knackered. We played some great stuff before that against Liverpool, Man City, sunderland and Spurs. Two bad performances shouldn't overshadow the good ones and yes the following season we were crap because we sold our two best players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
