Lord Willard Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 (edited) Stevie **** G, no thank you. He might be a good manager but it's too soon for our club. He needs the ten years of graft first. You don't employ a pilot thats qualified for two years to fly a A380. You get a seasoned pilot thats got years of experience knowing how to deal with every situation. Ever since someone mentioned Ten Hag everyone else seems disappointing. So whoever that was, **** you too Edited November 8, 2021 by Lord Willard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been others; some performances have been worrying for some time. There have been a number of things that have indicated that Smith was out of ideas and out of his depth. Smith would have taken us down. Purslow had no choice, and acted correctly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRO Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 56 minutes ago, IrishVilla10 said: I think Gerrards the type of manager/player you hate when he’s against you but love him when he’s for you. You can guarantee he’s going to demand performances and he knows how to win football matches. No one can be sure, of anyone, its all pure conjecture. but for me Stevie G looks like the deliberate man, a man who can deliver. He would raise the profile and I think he would rally the troops....I also think he would sort out midfield, the engine room of Deans demise imo. I think he is the type to say, "this train's leaving the station, you are either on it or not".....now the work starts. short on experience, sure but that can be overstated, Neil Warnock is the most experienced around....no ,I didn't think so. If its not Stevie G......then it has to be a winner, with a similar ilk. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted November 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 8, 2021 (edited) Contrary to belief, I actually don't think Deano had/has " reached his ceiling " at all. I just don't think we had the time to wait for him to perfect his craft and gain the experience, at the expense or results, in this climate. It wouldn't surprise me to see him go on to be a top Manager, but there are undoubtedly things he needs to work on ( IMO ) and experience he needs to gain. Some people are looking at this way too one dimensionally. Just because he ultimately might not have been right for our next step, at this particular time, doesn't make him a shite or limited Manager either.

I don't think he will ever finish higher than he did last season personally. That isn't to say he won't improve his craft though. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see there being a few issues to sort out around the backroom team. Mind you, Noel Fielding as set piece coach couldn't be any worse than what we have currently 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's had more money thrown at him than any other Villa manager in history. Not sure whoever he manages next will be quite so generous. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's 10 years into his career, and if he sticks with it he could have another 20 years in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Silvers Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I like @Sulberto21 suggestion, Marcelo Gallardo, I'd also bring in Bielsa as assistant coach/spy and replace Purslow with @villalad21. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
