hippo Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 This is when we see what the new owners are made off - do they go for the easy option of Dean Smith to appease the supporters ? - or the easily appoint-able Thiery Henry - either of those smacks of more of the same - I wouldn't expect either to start next season. Do they have the pulling power to get Brendan Rogers , Sean Dyche, Eddie howe , - An overseas unknown is most likley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Pochettino for me. We've got our own ground, we sign loads of players and he gets to work with Jack after all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael118 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Ranieri, Allardyce, Hiddink or Sanchez Flores. 'It is damaging to a career you have spent years and years and years putting together and accumulating and proving that you are a quality manager and even though the reasons are not that valid it is still pretty damaging.'

hippo Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I think he gets Bristol away .... Can't say I am hopeful of a 'wow' appointment though - The current set up all seems a bit Randy Lernerish to me.... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How you cannot distinguish the gross disparity in resources, expectation vs. outcome is beyond me. It's like asking how Watford's manager can be doing a great job in the PL when they didn't even make Champions League this season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are aware that was his debut season in the championship? He had a tiny budget he has done a unbelievable job there. also he showed Bruce how to play football recently and completely humiliated him. Wilders a good manger. I like him alot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't - I was just saying that his track record in this division hasn't delivered a play off place - and 3 more points than this season - for me that wouldn't put him in the category of 'awesome' Its a difficult roadmap to see it being CW anyway - If we are going down the existing championship manager route, I think we would turn to Dean Smith much earlier than Wildier. To be honest I think it will be an overseas coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I honestly think Sherwood would do well here in the Championship if he came back...I kind of miss him. Things seemed more fun with him around and he was unfortunate to be part of Villa at the time it was all crumbling down, just like Garde. In hindsight, O’Neill was smart to jump ship when he did... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, i believe Bruce has gone insane! You really wanted to get that quote in didn't you. TBH - I don't think Bruce is doing the same thing over and over - He has been leaned on to stop bringing older players - and we now have a very 'un Bruce' like squad - its as though the squad has been assembled for the next managerial incumbent.

Now that gives food for thought..... Perhaps SB's only "F you" response is to play jedinak at CB..... Where's Tom Hanks and his "walking the green mile" when we need it ?
