stewiek2 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 wally with the brolly is a good choice, good records as cub manager Cub manager maybe. But we want a good CLUB manager. I swear if that buck-toothed, brolly weilding ginger clearing in the woods is manager I'll turn up at the VP gates, pitchfork and burning torch in hand, ala the classic Universal horror films like a hired mob!!! McClown was only brought in by Fergie as Preston would NOT allow him to speak to Moyes, and McClown was THIRD choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borgs Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Deschamps Quoting the first person to list him. Ancelotti is overrated. Particularly here, it seems. A likeable personality, but tends to manage only ready-built teams and not especially successfully. Hughes' football does not enthrall, though I do like his demeanour. Moyes has done a fantastic job with the Everton budget and would suit, but I'd be more content with the guy whom took an underdog to the Champs final and restored Marseille to the pinnacle of French football in his first season as manager. He'd be well connected, too. Although this club's ultimate success starts domestically Didier has thrived on the continent and it might be argued targeting him would be even more ambitious than Carlo.

kayarcee Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I hope we don't get Ancelotti. I've a feeling he'll come in, neglect the youths, fill the team up with pension age Italians, play turgid football and ultimately leave the club with a big bill and a bit of a mess. Except that he's a student of the Arrigo Sacchi school of football management- which is based on some measure of patience, but is also much more attacking than the catenaccio we're more familiar with from Italian sides. In fact, Ancelotti's breed of football is more attacking than his former coach's- Ancelotti's most comfortable playing a 4-3-2-1, whereas Sacchi used a 4-4-2 (though often with one winger pulled inward). And he's arguably already got the personnel to pull it off- Makoun to be his Pirlo, pulling strings from deep, and Young and Downing to play the roles of Kaka and Rui Costa, lying behind and pinging throughballs to Darren Bent. The only places he would need to bring in "ancient Italians (which, btw, he didn't do at Chelsea)" would be in defense, which is where you'd arguably want ancient Italians.

JulieB Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 The headline from Corriere del Sport - "Ancelotti verso l'Aston Villa" Reads "Ancelotti to Aston Villa" meaning Ancelotti according to them is going to Aston Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.Bear Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Fans who wouldn't be completely over the moon and ecstatic if we got Ancelotti are strange. Fans who don't want Ancelotti should be sectioned. Fans who wouldn't be completely over the moon and ecstatic if we got McClown are strange. Fans who don't want McClown should be sectioned. just because you say it doesn't make it true. Of course not but I would love to hear people try and talk away potentially the most successful and experienced manager this club would ever have had. To me its insane.

I suspect he'd bring in older players here in favour of youth as it's a different situation to Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadoftrinity Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 All that video is saying is that Anchelotti is one of the favourites for the job, no where does it say he is going to take the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieB Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Here the headline reads" ancelotti (to go) to aston villa" There's no question mark - verso means to as in "to go to" Confusing because I thought sources in Italy according to the Guardian had said he wasn't interested.

roadoftrinity Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Here the headline reads" ancelotti (to go) to aston villa" Same as if you looked on Sky yesterday, the headline would say "Hughes to Villa". In the video, it is just saying he is one of the favourites along with Mark Hughes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

claretandblue77 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 well 54% of VT would rather have someone else than Ancelotti. he just wouldn't be the right guy for our club. Someone comes up with a story that Ancelotti will be named manager and the negative comments start As for your 54% stat, I am pretty sure some of those people would be happy with Ancelotti instead. Just out of interest who would you go for? not being negative, i'd support Ancelotti 100% if he became our manager. in order, my preference would be: Jol Hughes Moyes Ancelotti well going by your list Jol, hughes and moyes aren't wanted going by your logic 77% don't want Moyes, 89% don't want hughes and your top choice of Jol 95% don't want him. So i'd happily take the man that has got almost 50% of the vote than the rest. If you don't want him just say, don't come up with ridiculous stat's to try and back up your arguement.

Seeing England fail hard is maybe a bit of a giveaway. You want us to fail hard? You think the Wally's problems of coming into a pampered Sven squad not playing very well as a team do not reflect our situation? McClaren supporters, please see this appointment would be madness...
