I was trying to remember the poster on here pre season who was adamant this group were way better as owners than Xia would be...it wasn't you was it Hanoi? So far they've signed a whole bunch of unknowns from abroad, didn't sign that big name player (Anderson Talisca), made an ill advised appointment in Zenga and I have to say I don't really see how getting in Lambert will excite the South Bank. On the evidence of today they need to be worrying about relegation...can't defend at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a couple years time we could find ourselves in a position where we're dreaming of loaning Wolve's squad players. Ah found it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played exciting football when he turned up here but the spell here broke him and now he's cautious and pretty negative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes, whatever was said at the time of the takeover, nothing much good has come of it so far. They'd have been better off not sacking Kenny Jackett. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Honestly, I think he's a shite appointment. He might do 'ok', but ok won't get them promoted. Not this season and probably not next either. Let's face it he likely caught lightening in a bottle at Norwich and leant on Benteke and Delph here, one of which signed years before he arrived. Yes he had a very tough job, but don't forget he was failing miserably no matter how you spin it at the time he was sacked. Never forget the turgid football either. Utterly uninspiring and if I were a Wolves fan I'd be dumbfounded. Also, he must be a **** masochist. From Lerner to the chicken shop to a club ran by an agent that have the potential to become a circus. You can't make it up. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, back to back promotions followed by a comfortable midtable PL finish were no fluke. It remains to be seen if he isn't completely finished as a manager, but credit where it's due. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 He isnt completely useless but towards the end he was one of our worst. Never been the same he lost his back team. Be interesting to see who is his number 2 is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The home game was a absolute disgrace All it needed was to play Guzan...I'm convinced we wouldn't have conceded at least one of the goals from a corner in the first leg with the form he was in that year. In fairness that team finished the prem season pretty well...the tie just came at a terrible moment for us mentallty given what happened that xmas.

hippo Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Hope he does well (not at our expense of course !) He always seemed honoured to be manager of Aston Villa. It mystifies me how on a couple of occasions he really seemed to be getting their at Villa, the way he ended that first season - it all seemed to be coming together. In general when he paid £3m + player they came up with the goods. I gave up on him only when he took that coaching trip abroad and decided the way forward was to pass the ball sideways at walking pace, then stood in utter amazement as we struggled to threaten the opposition goal. I still wonder how anyone so long in the game can ever think that was going to work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
