I think Moyes is finished now, I don't think he will ever reach the heights he did at Everton again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Moyes should be our priority, however I'm not sure he'd be willing to go to a Championship club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Simple for for me. He's not good enough to manage Aston Villa - has to go or else more of the same next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabby Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Moyes is a non starter he is not dropping out of Prem League You need to go for the likes of Rowlett who has done a good job with smaller clubs with minimal funds or a proven manager who can get promotion.The acceptance needs to be we are unlikely to employ ( assuming Remi goes ) a manager who going to excite us long term.We need someone who can do one job , get us promoted and if that means lumping it forward to Gestede to score headers or buying experienced champ level / former prem level players then so be it.

Villarocker Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Right now, regarding whether Garde goes or stays, I'm not too bothered either way. However, my inclination is that we have had far too many changes in recent times and probably need to steady the ship. Final point is that I think it's important for us all to remember that this manager has not signed any players during his time here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-Reacho Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I'm pretty sure Pearson's also a non-starter as long as Lerner's here. He apparently said he didn't want to appoint him as he was toxic or something to that effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a well run club would have allowed that though. You just don't let an inexperienced manager have the final say on our biggest squad overhaul in Premier League history. It doesn't matter how inexperienced Sherwood was/is. I would still have preferred him to have the final say on his signings, as opposed to the likes of Reilley.

romavillan Posted March 3, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted March 3, 2016 I think Garde deserves a chance to actually have a go at some point, he's not had a chance so far has he? Squad is not his and is dire. I'd love to see him backed properly in the summer, if he leaves I think it will be one we regret when we see him do well somewhere else under better working conditions than here. The ball is squarely in the board's court, looks like Fox is a goner, So will Lerner/Hollis have the balls to back him or not? My guess is not and we start looking for a new manager in June. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was personally right behind Sherwood. He had given us a great end to the season and a cup final out of the blue. The last 3 games were appalling admittedly but I felt he'd done enough prior to that to justify a pre-season. With the benefit of hindsight, it was probably the worst pre-season in our entire history to have an opportunity to buy. We were dire, known throughout the football world to be dire, our wage structure was poor and we'd just lost our best 4 players. Who in their right frame of mind would have wanted to sign for us? That said, its looking like the 2 French players Sunderland signed in Jan are better than any of the ones we bought in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I don't know why so many are sure that Moyes wouldn't drop down a league. Big Sam did, and he had a fairy decent reputation as a Premier League manager. If we gave him enough money and convinced him that we aim to be back in one season, he could see this as the perfect job to rebuild his reputation. If he got us back up the first time of asking, I'd be pretty confident he could re-stabilise us in the Premier League. By the way - the (apparent) bully I was referring to was Karsa, as he's the most recent one I think had a supposed detrimental impact, which I think Pearson could replicate.

maqroll Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Looks like he's not coming back Quote Aston Villa’s relegation-bound squad is split damagingly into two factions with many of the longer-serving players openly questioning manager Remi Garde’s reluctance to challenge or criticise any of the squad in the aftermath of defeats, Telegraph Sport has learned. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/aston-villa/12182723/Aston-Villa-squad-split-in-two-as-senior-players-openly-question-Remi-Gardes-management-style.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexbelowsound Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I like Remi but I couldn't care less whether he stays or goes now however I find the idea that any one of those utter wastes of space think they are in a position to be questioning anyone laughable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
