Also, Zidane's still looking for a club. Lol. Or how about Guardiola? Mourinho perhaps? Maybe Ferguson would come out of retirement? So many choices for a midtable Championship club who haven't got a pot to piss in. Edited October 2, 2018 by One For The Road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have new owners who are billionaires who have sanctioned big name loans from Premier League clubs, I’d wager that we have quite a lot of money, no proof obviously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a midtable Championship club who may have a pot to piss in but that's totally irrelevant given FFP regulations mean we can't use it. It all amounts to the same thing. The names on that list were nothing short of delusional given our current position. Edited October 2, 2018 by One For The Road 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Which equates to the same thing as not having a pot at all, in the context of hiring managers who will cost a fortune and want transfer budgets.

Vive_La_Villa Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 2 hours ago, Made In Aston said: The DOF sets the whole long term footballing strategy and this goes way beyond the managerial appointments. With the rise of technology and data analysis the role of a DOF in the modern game is no longer a luxury, but an essential, integral element. For example, player recruitment is by committee consisting of the DOF, manager, scouts and data analysts. Sports science is the same (DOF, manager, coaches, data analysts, physios, nutritionists etc). The days of one man controlling all aspects of the club are gone and if clubs don't start using this modern approach then they will get left behind. Villa is in danger of falling back, with the likes of Leicester, Southampton, Wolves and even Brentford embracing modern methods and reaping the benefits of it. To use a mobile phone comparison, Villa is the Nokia 3210 while other clubs are iPhones. We need to get smart and do so ASAP if we are going to have any chance of competing at a high level again. More like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
