If you are doing a poll put Shakespeare in there. Coz he is the most likely long term replacement candidate just like Thomas Frank was at Brentford.

Whether or not we want that kind of continuity is another question but Smith and Villa seem to have lined things up in a similar manner.

He lasted what 10 games as Leicester manager. He's just a number 2 and would be o.k if needed as caretaker for a few weeks.

Don't rate him.

Hes not falvour of the month like Potter but no chance Potter will leave Brighton

[GingerCollins29]

That list of options is depressing, unrealistic or shite.

Potter will not leave brighton. 

Joachim low? Favre? Not a hope in hell.

Lampard and Gerrard. Just relegate us now. Lampard is abysmal and Gerrard won the scottish prem. I could do that with an old firm club. 

Smith can gladly stay if they are the options.

Potter. No other manager I want, think he is perfect. 

I’m still not Smirh out, but Potter would be great. 
 

Im not entirely sure why so many think he’d be in unattainable, I don’t care what the league table says, Brighton to Villa is a big step up.

You could ask this of any manager going to a club who have sacked a manager. They didn’t get sacked because everything was rosy. We are a step up from Brighton and he would have better facilities, bigger transfers budget and get paid more. I’m almost sure if we want him, we would get him. 

Really how would that happen ?

He would have to resign from Brighton.

Brighton would surely rebuff any approach from villa.

Joachim Low is 61 and hasn't managed in club football for 17 years

He wasn't a successful club football manager either 

He won't be going anywhere

Neither do I, I’m amazed anyone still thinks Smith can turn this around.

We use our advantage in the negotiations.

No disrespect to Brighton, but Villa are on a different planet to them size wise and also potential wise. Villa is a huge job for any manager.

A bullshit thread. Why not back the manager while he’s still in the position. 

I disagree.

The manager has had plenty of backing and support, but this shit show cannot continue.

Most of us have had enough now.

You make it sound like managers leaving one club for another never happens. It’s called MONEY. Generally in life if someone wants something and they have more money than the other person, they get what they want. 

[picicata]

I voted who I think would be the replacement which is Lampard. I don't want him though.

Meh

Wed have too. It would take huge amount to deprive Brighton of a a guy who has got them fighting for a place in Europe.

It would also mean potter telling Brighton he wants to leave. Just not seeing it.

One PL manager leaving for another PL club mid season. I've not researched but when did that last happen ?

Same.

[AvfcRigo82]

I would give Antonio Conte a call and see how he feels about becoming the new coach.

[AvfcRigo82]

You can laugh @VillaChris

Who do you suggest??

[PaulC]

You cant just approach a manager who is in a job can you he would have to resign first.

Think we should. No harm in trying to get the best available… doubt he’d accept the challenge as that level of manager only want a champions league club, but, still.
