PieFacE Posted October 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 10, 2018 Do all clubs go through interview processes like we do? Seems to always drag with villa. I swear other teams have replacements lined up before they sack the manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've wondered more than once what he's been up to since retiring. An occasional tv pundit appearance......after dinner speaking too, perhaps ? Dunno if he has a sideline business or if he's just plain bored and wants in on the footy gravy train full time ? I mean, if Robbie Savage can get given a career in the media...! I might be wrong but I have the feeling that apart from his skills on the pitch, he is like so many retired footballers who have very little else in terms of talents and intelligence and thinks "Oh bugger - my money's running low....what do I do now ?"

Demitri_C Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Sky sports reporting Henry definitely coming so looks like that one definitely isn't happening. My money is on faria- terry as the rumours suggest. I'd prefer Rodgers but I am assuming he isn't interested if we haven't talked with him at all.

No pleeeese Although Faria could be the Man, hope he don't upset players like Roy Keane did in the past, seems to have the same personality. Also is he the one the players lose there head with when Mourino's end is near. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Never wanted that cheating Henry anyway. Robbed Ireland of a World Cup spot in 2009 with that handball goal. The man is a cad and hasn't enough bottle to take a job that may prove too difficult for his liking. Time to move onto the Faria/Terry dream team! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Posted October 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 10, 2018 Im with you John, too much of a gamble considering our position. Rodgers for me with Tezza as his second. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 (edited) I really don't get the Monaco thing,what have they ever won? The only thing the place is famous for, is having a grand prix, street circuit and a Hollywood starlet as a Princess.
