foreveryoung Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Shocking if people are mentioning Dyche what about Nunes. Not for me, I'm "all in for Amorim"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But doesn’t that itself speak how highly he’s rated. That Sporting were willing to pay a club record fee for a manager who been in charge of Braga for 5 months?

I'd love Villa to have a 70% win rate - but this is Villa, we will have setbacks and this guy has no track record of overcoming anything, it's all been gravy so far. We paid that for Ings or Digne, or even Wesley. The manager is way more important than any one player - it makes sense that clubs should pay as much for managers as they do players. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyp Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 (edited) For as grizzly as he appears - i bet you Dyche would seriously impress if he got the chance to interview. He’s that man manager we all thought Gerrard could be. You are all been sucked in by the tangibles again. The tactics boards, the YouTube videos put together by a spotty teenager. Moyes doesn’t have a style. He has it though, he has that X factor. There’s just something about Dyche. I’d roll the dice.

I agree that we should pay what it takes, but I don't know if Amorim has overcome anything testing, yes it's unbridled success so far but he's very young and nobody can expect him just to win everything forever more, he will have to develop resillience at some point. I don't think, for a world record fee, that he's the finished product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smg Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Been following this all day. My fear now is that once again we will appoint someone who does not have unanimous fan support. Anything other than a perfect start and the knives will once again be out and we will be back to square one. (Again) I think it’s important to accept that we are no longer seen as a big club in terms of our on field performances and therefore expectations need to be more realistic in the short term. The new manager has to have the time to develop a group of players not just a pre season and a couple of transfer windows. We know ( if we are old enough) Ferguson needed time, Arteta was a mess to begin with and Potter took time to get Brighton organised and performing in the premier league. Are we as a fan base capable of showing that patience ? Which of the prospective managers are capable of achieving what we need I have no idea but we cannot continue to expect greatness just because of our increasingly distant past success.

The club would have offered him a contract of about 10 million euros per year for him and about 100 million euros to invest in the winter market, which should allow his team to breathe more peacefully and, at least, not suffer to save him. I don't know the paper's reputation, and it's hard to parse the words in translation. It says "could" return, so that doesn't sound like they're certain, though who knows what the exact sense is in Spanish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which of the prospective managers are capable of achieving what we need I have no idea but we cannot continue to expect greatness just because of our increasingly distant past success. To be fair, i've been thinking overnight. ANYONE who came after Deano, would have had a hard task in winning fans over due to heavy sentiment and a feeling of him (One of us) being wronged. On the back of Jack leaving too and a pretty heartbreaking summer overall. Hence a disconnect, which maybe only wins and time could distract from. In a roundabout way, I feel SG received | absorbed a large chunk, if not all of that, whilst simultaneously seeing expectations probably lowered. By default, a new man might get a much easier ride IMO. Obviously unless we are terrible consistently.
