Dave-R Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 This is a question I've often wondered with you guys and how each of you would respond. If it ever came to the time we part ways with Smith (hopefully not for a long time), would you guys ever consider a female manager or Coach in charge of the mens team?? Do you think that female managers and Coaches have a long way to go before they are able to take such a role in football?? Is there much needed experience still needed in women's football before some of the female coaches/managers take on such positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I would any coach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudevillaisnice Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Rinsed every last bit from the squad we had today. Great point. Chelsea bringing on Werner and Jorginho who cost like a billion quid whilst we bring in Davis sums up the squad differences (it’s not a criticism). Hopefully NSWE can improve the squad and back him. Great point today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Manager of the year for me. The job he's done is just phenomenal, and I'm continually thankful that he's proving my earlier criticisms wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV82 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 (edited) Smith currently talking after the game on Amazon. Brilliant as always. We are so lucky to have this guy in charge - soak it up. Edited December 28, 2020 by AV82 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 An absolutely phenomenal end to 2020 for us. I never thought we at any point tonight we were completely 2nd best, we did tire towards the end of the first half and just expected us to run out of gas completely in the second but not these boys. They never stopped and that was more than a well deserved point. You'd expect our lack of depth to hurt us eventually but our main 11 are a match for anyone in this league. What a fantastic season we're having. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest av1 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I still can't quite believe this. After the year we've had with Covid and Villa looking like we can beat anyone in the league, I'm beginning to wonder if this is just one of my funny dreams after eating too much cheese. Any minute now I'm going to wake and realise we've just drew away at Luton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 The fact that the last few results have been achieved with first choice players missing is immense. You can't buy team spirit and the culture he has created, exciting times! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Quote 'Smith deserves a lot credit' FT: Chelsea 1-1 Aston Villa Micah Richards Former Man City defender on BBC Radio 5 Live Dean Smith deserves a lot of credit for what he has done at Aston Villa, from relegation to the way they are playing now. Some of the best training sessions I have ever seen have involved Dean Smith. I didn't know whether he was going to be a good coach because when you come to the Premier League, it can eat you alive but because he is a Villa fan, he got his chance at Villa, he's thrown everything at it and I'm not surprised that he's doing this well. https://www.bbc.com/sport/live/football/55095090?ns_mchannel=social&ns_source=twitter&ns_campaign=bbc_live&ns_linkname=5fea37625afdc802c37f9e3f%26'Smith deserves a lot credit'%262020-12-28T19%3A52%3A41.114Z&ns_fee=0&pinned_post_locator=urn:asset:e92f9503-4122-4a86-9a85-0af6cb486f3b&pinned_post_asset_id=5fea37625afdc802c37f9e3f&pinned_post_type=share 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I love what he said before tonight's game. When asked about not changing the team from that which played against Palace he said he asked the players and they were all up for the game. He also said no player ever got stretchered off with fatigue. I love the man and hope he manages us all the way through to the days when we lift trophies.

VillanousOne Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 There was a point this season where errors started to cost us games again even if the performances weren't poor, somehow Deano stamped those mistakes out and got some fringe players most had written off performing again. He has to get manger of the month for December! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
