Just wish we had an Everton or Wolves at home as one of his first two games. Getting off to a good start seems to be a must now for managers. Just hope there is patience as he is clearly a very good manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 It feels like a really thought out appointment, even though it's happened relatively quick. Hopefully he finds his groove sooner rather than later, I've a feeling he could be the one to turn us into something a bit special. Welcome Senor.

The most classic form of racism It's not "making fun of" his accent. Have you ever seen his press conferences in England? People started quoting him that way out of fondness, like a catchphrase, and he leaned into it. Several times it was morning or afternoon and he said good evening anyway. It's not an insult or mockery of any kind. He speaks better English than Gerrard tbh. Edited October 24, 2022 by est1874 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not even sure it’s meant to be funny, but I certainly don’t think it’s meant to be derogatory coming from Villa fans in this thread. Anyway, not a hill I’m going to die on. Welcome Unai - I’m very pleased to have such an experienced and successful manager in charge! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilS Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Wow! Nothing in life is certain, but I think the owners have pulled of a massive coup here with one of the most successful managers we have ever appointed in my lifetime. Welcome Unai, wishing you the best of luck here. Hoping you can bring a bit of success to Villa Park. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoMkali Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 1 minute ago, El Zen said: I’m as woke as a woke wookie in Woking, but c’mon. More like friendly jesting, no? Apparently the joke started due to poor performances. So it wasn't started as such. 2nd there are idiots who don't understand jokes and take it seriously. And when they take it seriously they escalate. Why do you think all the YouTubers and streamers who used to make racist jokes have stopped. Because a bunch of people who were too thick to get the joke used it as inspiration to attack minority groups. There is no room for any form of racism joking or otherwise online. In person sure you can make a joke but online you don't know who your audience is and they might take it the wrong way and then go out and hurt people because they've been inspired by racist comments like these. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A manager accustomed to building teams with both limited and near-limitless budgets, he is also recognised for his exceptional ability in negotiating the Europa League, which he has won a record four times.

sheepyvillian Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 All the great Villa teams have been known for their counter attacking ability. This really could be a hand in glove appointment. I'm confident the fans will be behind him and show him the respect and patience that all successful managers need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 I feel like this appointment won’t divide the fans as much as the Gerrard one, where there were a few disagreements from the outset. This is a fantastic signing for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don’t understand this. I think he’s probably good, but is he that good, maybe I just don’t understand football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
