You've got to be in your mid 30s to have any memory of us winning a cup. I'd snap your arm off to win a cup and stay up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they **** themselves. I know you’re joking to some extent, but I think that there was an element of that approach with Gerrard. Times have changed since the days of Ron Saunders, Clough and Fergie. Players don’t respond to fear theses days. For a start off, they can earn enough to live the rest of their days inside a year, so they’re not in any fear of losing their job. I think good managers realise this, unfortunately Gerrard didn’t come close to being a good manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that, but in 10 minutes they’ll be on the phone asking their agent to find them a new club. It’s the players market, and if they feel hard done by, agent goes to work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messi11 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Wont surprise me if Emery is on the phone to Villa HR tomorrow saying he cant take the job now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBGB Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Honestly, with his record, I’d give 3 years no matter what (even relegation). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost 15 out of 18 under Gerrard, I doubt 1 game being managed by a assistant is going to turn him off? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerCollins29 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 The more I think about it today, the more perplexed I am. This was there last chance to show Emery before he arrives. Some of the 2nd half effort levels were petulant and downright pathetic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s my point. He should be given a lot of time because of his record. He’s worth giving leeway to. Edited October 29, 2022 by CBGB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Did anyone have a half decent performance? Barring mings and bailey everyone else looked shite. Pathetic way to bring the new manager in. Way to go to destroy the positivity that was built last week. Dog shit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took a while to get that first win they were winless until they got reinforcements in but they were drawing and becoming hard to beat which is what we need to do , I’d take that for his first few month and then progression.

At the end of last season they were 3rd on the form table post Howe. That's what a top manager can do. Idea that they need years to get their ideas across is just non sense imo.
