How sexy would this be:- Martinez Cash Chambers Mings Digne Kamara Luiz Bailey Buendia Coutinho Ings That is not a bottom half team. Looks good to me!

I just refuse to believe someone from inside the club has told someone else with a Villa news Twitter account that they are meeting Pochettino for tea, behind Gerrards back… there’s something there which doesn’t quite sound right to me…?

Well Gerrard might be at one of the other tables waiting for his scones to arrive. I reckon even he would catch on to what was happening. Do you reckon Gerrard is a jam first or last kinda person? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be at least two football agents involved in any such meeting, they're not exactly known for their discretion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are definately a big destination club despite our troubles. What was the negative issues around Poch while at Spurs or was it all Levy? They hated each other and Levy refused to open the checkbook for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate the sarcasm, but you really don’t think it’s possible that management gave him a heads up that they may start looking at other managers?

No. Otherwise they would have just sacked him. I don’t think any person would agree to that and not leave immediately with their payoff in hand. Imagine if your place of work did that to you? Would you just say fine and stick around? If there is something going on, it will be very secret squirrel.

Perfect imo that’s exactly how we should set up… but these guys in charge haven't got a f**king clue and cant drop a certain ‘magnificent seven’ it bloody annoys me… need someone new to come in for that reason alone… he’s looking at something every week and thinking its okay.

An everyday 9-5 office job is not at all comparable to being a Premier League manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I'm guessing that Pochettino story from that unverified no name account is pure bullshit. Gerrard is safe, especially if Purslow is safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaParkAvenue Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 1 hour ago, PussEKatt said: IMHO.Instead of hiring a manager "that has NEVER been there" like SB,SG,DS.We need a manager that has been there and done that,someone that has actually taken a team into europe.How much money have the owners spent on players,severence pay and new managers over the last 4/5 years ? Surely it would be better ( and probably cheaper ) to hire a manager with a proven track record and support him in the transfer market etc,etc than to hire another 3 managers over 4/5 seasons that are all going to do the exact same as DS,SB,SG,etc etc etc In that case would probably look at, apart from Pochettino, spanish managers like Emery or Lopetegui. Spanish managers often do well in Europe. (They would have to get there first of course) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
