I actually forgot about that, however, stranger things have happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got about three months good form in his career as a manager. This is what we've become. 3 months? He's had 2 promotions and a play off appearance, Plus the run at the end of last season I'm not saying he is the messiah but he's got experience of turning a team around and getting them back up 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Premier League basement club are expected to announce the departure of Remi Garde in the next 24 hours and former Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson is among the preferred candidates. Pearson wants a club he will be allowed to develop and grow and Villa fits the bill in many ways but it is not an easy task. There are also potential changes at other clubs which he is maintaining interest in. +4 Anderlecht coach Besnik Hasi has emerged as one of the surprise names under consideration by Aston Villa +4 Frenchman Remi Garde is expected to leave the Premier League's bottom club in the next 24 hours Hull's Steve Bruce and Tony Pulis at West Brom are other names in the frame for Villa but Hasi has been proposed to Villa as another coach of great potential. Hasi, who was at the Manchester derby on Saturday sat alongside City and Belgium captain Vincent Kompany, is only 44 but has quickly established a reputation for developing young players and has shown an ability to cope after some stars were sold on. Share A centre-back as a player, Hasi was born in Yugoslavia but went on to represent Albania and won 44 caps. He began coaching as an assistant at Anderlecht in 2008 and became manager in 2014 and has a 53percent win percentage. Anderlecht are third in the Belgian League with some promising youngsters such as Dennis Praet and Youri Tielemans expected to attract big offers from Premier League sides in the summer.

That's about the likelihood of Rodgers ever coming to our disaster of a club. Seriously, he is so far out of our reach its ridiculous. You're about as deluded as he is!! Where exactly do you think rogers is going to end up? Luckiest manager going, how he got the liverpool job i will never know. He ain't good enough for villa, thats how 'highly' I rate him. Jumped on a moving bike at swansea, and at liverpool, but he'd got suarez pedalling for him at anfield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicho Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I feel like Im liking every Pearson positive post but I would be happy with his appointment. As mentioned by posters throughout this thread, he has Championship promotion experience and Premiership experience. He has a good reputation by fans of teams that he has actually managed and this goes against his media portrayed persona. However anyone coming in needs to backed by the board to make the changes necessary. Remi can see the problem but has not been backed and this is where we are and will continue to be until we back the man coming in and importantly that man has the minerals to sort out the players. Unfortunately for some the players I dont think there is any coming back in the eyes of the fans as they have downed tools and do not care one bit.

Popular Post Xela Posted March 21, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2016 The more I read about Pearson, the more I like him. Forward thinking, protects his players, not afraid to gut a team and takes no shit from people. I'd be fully behind the appointment. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I've never actively disliked our manager at the time we appointed them (even McLeish) but Pearson would be the first for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's not even that good! He's done things with Leicester, and that's great, but that's all he has. Failed at Southampton. Failed at Hull. Even after Leicester stayed up, the club wanted rid. He should be so far down the list of managers we'd think of approaching that the chance of him coming to the club would be incredibly close to 0%.

Popular Post sne Posted March 21, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2016 For the last few years it's been oh so important with Premier League experience for both players and managers. Turns out that didn't work at all. The managers flopped spectacularly and our worst performing players are those with this fabled Premier League experience. Now we're dropping down a league so we desperately need people with Championship experience? F that! It's all about the right people at the right place / time. No 2 situations at 2 different clubs will ever be the same. What the club need to do is decide a clear strategy of how we should play, find a manager who suits that and the recruit players to fit in that system. Normally you already have all this and need a manger to best utilize the players already at the club, but we have NOTHING. The positive thing about this is that the board and the new manager get to build something completely new. The negative is that we really can't afford not to get straight back up... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
