useless Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Everytime a job like this comes up, Nicolas Cortese always gets talked about, but never happens. Hopefully a name to give everyone some confindence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TrentVilla Posted June 29, 2016 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2016 Odd isn't it, it's almost like those running the club actually have a plan and some ideas of how to move forward. Novel. Lets hope it's not Roy Hodgson! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 It's hard to speculate on a name, because we (or at least I) don't even know what the role of a Technical Director will entail. Cortese's name will always come up, but I would have thought that if we were going to be hiring him, he'd be doing Wyness's job instead of Wyness, but maybe not. If it's someone who's going to oversee all the scouting, then it might be someone like Frank Arnesen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted June 30, 2016 Moderator Share Posted June 30, 2016 Sorry I didn't mean to imply I know who it is, for clarity I don't. I agree with the above post, I think this is a roll for one of those infamous 'football people' rather than someone like Cortese who I can't really see is needed with the personnel already on board. I think it will be of international standing in the game in a playing and probably managing capacity. I'd assume they will be here to head up scouting networks, coaching and development and be involved building this club network. I'd be very surprised if they are British, more likely to be from Southern Europe or South America I'd assume. It will likely be someone like Sven but hopefully not the man himself. I'm really eager to see who it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have appointed him on the Villa board instead of paying his compensation when he couldn't manage us anymore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
