Like a world class manager are the only ones better than Smith. Unfortunately aint happening. Thats not true. Is plenty of available managers better than Gerrard. I didn't want Fonseca as I expected the board had bigger targets but he is much better option than Gerrard. Favre another one not world class and available 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen_Evans Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 If it is Gerrard, that suggests to me the owners are not ready to give up on their dreams yet (whether or not this is the right way to achieve them) simply because Gerrard will not come here to make up the numbers and coast along mid-table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way would I take Lennon as I never felt he has the quality for the Premier League. But we are willing to take on Gerrard with far less experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Chindie Posted November 10, 2021 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2021 I wanted Smith to go but am not expecting us to go get an elite level manager. I did hope we would be getting someone who has proven themselves capable of performing in a top league - a Favre, Fonseca, I'd even add Potter in there, and I daresay there's others - the step up from Smith. Gerard isn't that. He might be a raging success, but there's not the kind of evidence to support that that other names have, which makes him a greater gamble IMO, and one we shouldn't be making. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said already, player manager, comes of the bench, scores a last minute winner from 30 yards out. Whips his top off, 1982 tattooed on his chest in claret and blue, pulls his entire face off a la Mission Impossible, and reveals himself to be Dean Smith. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not once has anyone suggested "Klopp or GTFO" in the slightest in this thread. Having to read page after page of the anti-Smithers droll on for over a year about how many "better" managers would leap at even the suggestion of managing Villa and now you're all ready to embrace Steven Gerrard for no reason other than "he's a winner"?

Win games and not be a Liverpool fan first and Aston Villa manager second. Quite simple; I have doubts but he gets a chance to prove himself.

Vive_La_Villa Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Come on lads. We all know this appointment is as much a commercial one as a footballing one. No shying away from that. Massive gamble. Im still excited. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the last two games he's been atrocious. His sub appearances prior to that have been very positive. So a mixed bag so far Yeah but Bailey has real pedigree and what he has shown in those moments was rather spectacular. Technique, touch, shooting, pace, dangerous crosses. He has lots of valuable qualities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
