TrinityRoadSteps Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Taken today, fans at the ground seemed pretty happy according to reporters. I could be wrong but I think that is shopped. It wasnt that sunny at Villa Park today. So I think it must have been taken Saturday :winkold: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 I'm glad he finally got it. Finally got what? The fact that we will have appointed an unemployed manager that is not as good as the ones who were employed but who we could not get due to compensation? that isn't a bew opinion i have had Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Not really, Cisse was very good until he broke, Diouf is a nonce but is a decent enough player when he's on form. Hamann and Heskey were good for Liverpool. The rest were a bit naff. But he's no better/worse than MON in the market IMO and gets better use out of his squad. Plus, unlike the other candidates (apart from Sven) he's a proven winner. People also underestimate the experience and knowledge he'll bring to the club and when he leaves we'll have a far greater scouting network and profile around Europe. Of that I have no doubt. His football is a bit meh, but again he gets results. I cant really find much negatives about this potential appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harris21 Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 If GH does become manager then he has my full support. Just seen an interview with an Jason Mac and he said they will be in for a big shock with GH. But then again he did drop him from the side!!

TrentVilla Posted September 5, 2010 Moderator Share Posted September 5, 2010 Houllier. The only man willing to spend more on Heskey than Martin O'Neill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harris21 Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 I'm more concerned about Friedel and Warnock, who were completely frozen out by Houllier and I'm sure wouldn't be overkeen to see him as their boss again. Didn't think of that... but they are perfessionals and should be fine. Anyhoo they are by far our best players in their respective positions.

villan-scott Posted September 5, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted September 5, 2010 I hope it gets announced tomorrow and there is a big hoo-hah at VP as I'm working at Tesco in Aston all day tomorrow and wouldn't mind popping over to see the arrival of our 'Special One', and Pete Colley potentially interviewing fans for their verdict, I'd get involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Houllier. The only man willing to spend more on Heskey than Martin O'Neill. Doesn't Steve Bruce come into that equation ? Houllier bought Heskey for 11M Oneill only actually bought Heskey once I guess for 3.5M Didn't Bruce buy him twice for 6M each time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted September 5, 2010 Moderator Share Posted September 5, 2010 We won't have to worry about that til at least January anyway. I'm more concerned about Friedel and Warnock, who were completely frozen out by Houllier and I'm sure wouldn't be overkeen to see him as their boss again. Friedel wasn't frozen out as he was never in, he was never number 1 at Liverpool and moved on to become a number 1. Warnock was loaned out as a young player which is normal and was at Liverpool for 3 years after Houllier. Despite the paper talk I don't think there is an issue here.

jasdipsn Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 GH Liverpool Top 10 In's & Out's. Some good sales some bad buys. All his big buys were shite then. Apart Hamann. Yes, seems so. Although, weird as it sounds, Emile Heskey was actually pretty good for Liverpool so wasn't a bad buy at all. How, Cisse, Diouf, Biscan come upto £29.5 million between them God only knows. Cisse looked quite good prior to his horrific leg break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 aren't most things posted on here someones opinion?

MattJ83 Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Yep - Im happy with this appointment if its true. There are alot of advantages and disadvantages being thrown about about him (as you would expect on a forum) but I think in general and given the amount of managers currently available then its a good deal. I would be interested to know how he see's our way forward and if he has been given any reasurrances over finances in the jan transfer window. It will be interesting to see what he does with the squad and how he gets them to play. Leaves me quite exciting about our next match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanvilla_1994 Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Not the best but also equally not the worst we could be looking at, he will get 100% support from me and every other villa fan i hope ( if he takes the job) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
