Next Aston Villa Manager

[The Fun Factory]

Hmmm- I think Fat Sam will be back in employment some time. He has already resurfaced in the media. And when ex managers do that that means they are bored and want a new job. Not sure if it would exactly excite the fan base as he  just a slightly smarter version of Bruce.

still cant believe people are suggesting Terry but ignoring another player on the books. maybe Mr. Aston Villa should get the job

Saw him interviewed yesterday and he made it clear he's finished - and rightly so .

How many years have souness  and hoddle  been in the media  ?

Knowing it.....and doing it , is two different things.

I think Hoddle has his right job a pundit.

Dwight Yorke will def want the job.

I expect Big Ron will he available to help out temporarily as well. 

[osmark86]

Maybe mr. Bilic will be available if Huddersfield can manage a shot on goal..

It's early days but it looks like the Bournemouth fairytale could be ending. Maybe he would move on now before he's tarnished by it but I think he will feel. He owes it to them to see it out. 

Dyche, well he's done so so well hasn't he. 

Unfortunately we cannot compete with Burnley financially which shows what a truly awful time we took to be relegated. 

I suspect our budget will be tight due to FFP and Burnley could throw more money at him. 

Plus he's done so well I would be amazed if a current PL team who are thinking of ditching their manager (West HAM?) make a move for him. 

Simple truth is anyone who is in the PL is a bigger draw than us.

I would say no we can't.

It sounds ridiculous I know (maybe because it is) but I think there's slightly more chance* of us enticing a manager like Hiddink with the promise of huge salary and I guess a further incentive should he achieve promotion, on a short term contract, than someone like Dyche who I would guess is rather happy where he is.

*and to clarify, I think the chance of attracting someone like Hiddink is negligible

Now there is a face I could happily punch all day long.

I think De Boer should be looked at. Ticks a lot of boxes and as his stock is low, could be gettable when he wouldn't ordinarily be.

U mad bro?  His stock is low because he is no good outside Ajax.  Wouldn't touch him with Gabby's.

Just posted this in the Bruce thread by mistake but here are my Suggestions. 

Paulo Sousa, Paulo Bento, Slavisa Jokanović, Jaap Stam, Pep Clotet ,  Murat Yakin, Markus Weinzierl.

All attainable forward thinking young managers. Cant think of any young British managers other than Howe off the top of head who could be gettable (that's if their bad run continues btw) 

bad news dude

Yakin went to Grasshoppers last week. Just did a search as i know how much myself and you would have liked to have seen him here!

He will do a great job there, his win percentage was high at FC Schaffhausen.

Pity he has so much potential and could have easily been the most talked about coach in Championship if we had ever went in for him and got him. Potentially another Wagner,

[Villan_of_oz]

Frank de Boer. 

[AvfcRigo82]

I am not sure if it has been mentioned already..    Rafa Benithez?

He is now second favourite behind Slavan Bilic to be the next Prem Lge manager to leave!

Do the bookies know something we don't? 

[sheepyvillian]

If recent history is anything to go by, then it's either , Big shit Sam , or worse still, that dull ,sweaty sock Moyes .

[AvfcRigo82]

I would take Allerdyce until June 2018 as long as he will get us promoted.

He would be happy to severe ties at the end after he collects his promotional bonus..

 

(Only if we can't lure Rafa)

Not exactly given much of a chance and sometimes a club is not the right fit. Have you read the independent article about his time at Palace? Doomed from the start.
