duke313 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 I can't wait to see him in another job, just to see how badly it goes. Wonder which club will be unlucky enough to fall for his "winning mentality" and get the next up-and-coming English manager. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted April 15, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 15, 2023 Run of the mill stat that won’t surprise anyone, but this sort thing makes up a significant proportion of this thread, so it’s in keeping. But it’s 20 fewer games. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BG_Villa_Fan Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 I’m getting progressively more and more mad at him for what he delivered at the start of the season. Playing the way we are now we fully deserve to fight for champions league football. Instead, we’ll likely come a few points short of that and then who knows what happens next season (injuries, loss of form, Pool/Chelsea possibly being better). Charlatan.

We only got Emery because he was ready when Gerrard failed.

In a way we should be sort of relieved. If he had done marginally better he probably wouldn’t have been sacked, or not sacked after the Fulham game anyway. And we probably wouldn’t have Emery now.

In a way it's worked out brilliantly that Gerrard was a shit as he was. He sort of did us a favour in a roundabout sort of way. A bit like with Fulham beating us in the 2018 playoffs. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted April 16, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 16, 2023 Huh, I hadn’t twigged that it was Fulham in both of those sliding doors moments. Another thing which I’m not sure has been picked up on, maybe it has, one of the arguments for Gerrard was “he’s missing his two big signings, Carlos and Kamara”. He was unlucky in that regard, and while Kamara would be a starter in Emery’s (and everyone’s) first XI, we’re doing ok without him. Even some of the little cameos in victories (Man United, Chelsea) it’s not like we weren’t going to win those matches if he wasn’t involved. He was way off the boil against Chelsea. And Carlos hasn’t played a minute under Emery. We’ve done alright without him featuring too. You could say Gerrard’s plans were disrupted (such as they were), but really, missing those two only carries so much weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
