John Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I think Dean Smith might find it difficult to be number one with someone of JT's profile working alongside him. I'm sure I read somewhere that Paraguay's manager Juan Carlos Osorio who managed Mexico at the World Cup would be ready to jump ship for us. If we can't get Faria perhaps Ranieri would work alongside JT? We will be speaking to Mad Mick soon the way this is going. Lets offer Terry the job now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ergo Wilder is shit and will be shit. I want Pep or Tuchel. I detect some irony there rodders, but the reason I'm a fan of Smith and Wilder is because I believe that either of them could come in and get on with what they do best .... getting a bunch of average players to excel themselves. The "names" probably have a different agenda ie getting themselves noticed and prepped to make the next step up. I'm being realistic here, and trying to look at what's best for the Villa team in the next eight months. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I'm happy we have been aiming high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Quick thought. Does anyone feel us insisting that JT will HAVE to play a part in the Management/Coaching Team might be complicating things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 So that's Henry and Faria ruled out. I don't think Terry is ready to manage yet but he would be perfect as a No.2. Dean Smith looks decent but I wonder how much of the backroom setup at Brentford is responsible for what they have achieved. Rodgers seems the best bet now and I am very meh on him. The most enjoyable time as a Villa fan is when a manager is sacked and we have 3-4 days of enjoying the possibilities of what might happen with a good manager in charge before they all slowly rule themselves out.

If true then yes I am sure some managers would be uncomfortable with a manager in waiting working beneath them. Most managers would also like to be making decisions in terms of their assistants and first team coaches. It would definately make some not take the job.
