I think they liked the idea of playing for a legend more than the reality of it! As a player I'd sooner play for a Poch, Potter, Rogers, someone who'd shown that they can make players better. 100% at least they can say they achieved something. All gerrards done in england is upset a club captain, united a fanbase against him and played turd football 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichW Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I thought this when Smith got sacked but for sure with the current squad we have got here, I think there is a long list of managers who would love to manage this squad. Villa is an attractive job under these owners and I don’t think it will be a struggle to get a good name, just ideally would like Gerrard gone sooner rather than later.

Demitri_C Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 If poch came i know its unlikely but that is the kind of appointment that lifts the fans, the players everyone associated at the club. Thats the turning point for us like when conte went spurs. Id move heaven and earth to get him here if he had any interest in coming here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaParkAvenue Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Considering Purslow's track record we could soon see Hodgson come out of retirement. Saw him interviewed on tv last week, looked like he missed the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell i would but obviously if its a choice between rodgers and poch your going for poch. Rodgers is more realistic though and i would still be very happy with him.

brummybloke Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) We have a habit of gambling on managers when we don't need to. The last top managers we got in and everyone were confident in were big Ron and Sir GT (1st time) and MON, I'm convinced houllier would have taken us forward if not for his medical issues. We got lucky with Brian Little and Gregory they were gambles. Dean Smith is the only other manager we have put any though into as his team were playing great football in the same division we were in. Hoping some young manager who does well or ok in a weak league for a few years, will come good in a much more competitive league is unnecessary risk taking. Use the carney money on binning the bin dipper and getting in a good proven manager. Edited August 29, 2022 by brummybloke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I think of gambling on a continental name that will excite the footballing hipsters I think of Tom Fox appointing Remi Garde. Had done alright in Ligue 1, had a few good performances in CL and was the worst possible fit for Villa in the position we were in. I think Premier League success will have to be priority No.1 for the next guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more risks because, if the next appointment doesn't work, we could find ourselves relegated. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
