Daweii Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 I like the fact that despite the club clearly making massive progress under him that according to him they are still 3 million miles away from where he'd like them to be. Now that is ambition as quite honestly I'd be happy if Villa played like they did today every game, but Lambert wants even more.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoD Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 He has already improved us so much and you know its only going to get better. The future looks bright with PL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villianusa Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 McLeish had no positives so I won't even mention him. You just did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misanthrope Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Yep, Zog has got to go, he's proven at this point he's second rate. When you dribble the ball into two defenders while not even bothering to look up, and you do it again and again, match after match, you are shit. SWP won 30 odd caps doing that.

nnock1984 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I blooming love this man!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 He seems to have a combination of MON and Houllier's positives (and then some) while possessing very few of their negatives. McLeish had no positives so I won't even mention him. I really think we can go places under him. He's his own man, and we'd do well to forget MON and GH at this point...onward and upward I say!

I'm over the moon right now, TBH...just watching the way we close down the opposition when they have the ball...always moving, working for each other...a little bit of swagger even. It's been a while since things have looked so good. Results could go down the toilet at some point, and they will, but we will finish safely mid table, and who knows? Maybe a UEFA Cup spot and a League Cup trophy? Why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 The most incredible thing is that it took only two games to him to transform the team from a boring, unwatchable, defensive formation that played long balls with the CB that limited to belt the ball clear to an attacking side that starts to build from the back and plays an entertaining, exciting, passing football.

ciggiesnbeer Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 What I love is reading other teams fans after our games. They cannot believe how hard working our side is. Our players are truly busting a gut to play. Thats all down to Lambert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 The thing yesterday was we looked so much bloody better, regardless of the manager, the team looked so much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Just love what Lambert has instilled in the Players. And he's so passionate on the touchline, and its going to get even better. Bright Future is ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 The transformation from last season to yesterday so quickly is amazing - massive kudos to Lambert for making things happen in such a short space of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AValon Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Lamberts character is already starting to show through. He's pretty unassuming, but there is a smouldering steeliness to him that could be infectious across the whole club. The nightmare that was the past couple of seasons will take some exorcising, but there already seems like theres a breath of fresh air flowing through VP. It will take time, but.........mighty oaks from little acorns, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I hope he stays here long enough to make us successful. Top class manager who, I fear, will leave us for bigger and better things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top class manager who, I fear, will leave us for bigger and better things He's done that throughout his career so far and that's how he came to us, so ultimately it's something we'd have to accept if it were to happen.

Folski Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I hope he stays here long enough to make us successful. Top class manager who, I fear, will leave us for bigger and better things While I do admit I fear this, if he was such a big success I dont see where he could go? Dont think the two Manchester clubs would go for him, nor Chelsea or Arsenal, so really there is only Spurs & Liverpool. I'd like to think that both of those are on a downward spiral at the moment and we are the opposite. I'll tell you what with the inconsistency in this league and the last two performances we could definitely challenge for the top 6 this year.

But that is all academic, We have got Lambert and that's all that matters. Lets enjoy for the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were hardly on the way up when he arrived. Anyway let's just enjoy the moments we have at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway let's just enjoy the moments we have at the moment Fair point but Spurs seem to look for more of a continental approach and I'm certain PL would not like the set up of buying players at Spurs. With the owners at Liverpool I don't think they are attractive for him. Also, Villa are potentially a huge club, it would be tough to say the same for Norwich.

mikeyp102 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Just seen motd... How predictable that they said that lambert was very mon esque... Just shows how poor they are mon would never have got the tactic like that. Lambert is completely different for the better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
