The very thing that Gerrard did at Rangers i.e. take them up and rebuild the squad is the reasoning that many people want to give DS more time. New team, new league, new player, transition period etc. Gerrard managed to overcome these issues rather quickly
I was saying that the situation that the Saints fans were in is very similar to the situation that we would be in if we appoint Gerrard. The Saints fans were wrong that time. So it is not a forgone conclusion that it is wrong to appoint Gerrard. We simply do not know. Gerrard could turn out to be a bad choice or he could turn out to be a very good choice
Yeah, got to like that. My favourite bit was the discussion on the use of subs. It was tactical. Christ, I have wanted to hear a Villa manager use subs like that for years. Normally it is just for fresh legs
How can there be no ambition in appointing Gerrard when you say if we wanted a solid safe pair of hands we would go for Potter or Hasenhuttl. By not going for a safe pair of hands is by definition being ambitious. Yes it is a risk but it can't be claimed it isn't ambitious
Every business will make wrong decisions and go on to regret the decision they made. However, good management will recognise when a bad decision was made and will rectify the problem and will learn from it
