I think both you and @TRO have a point here. There are definitely arguments for and question marks. I'd add that Brentford know their stuff when it comes to appointments and seem to recruit well, plus Frank has coped with the tests of the Prem so far. He's not got a lot of experience in the league, but he know what it's about. I think he'd be a solid appointment - maybe not the glamour one we all want, but we might not be at the point where we can make that one yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll say this - an element of Villa supporters who will be frantically searching out these tactic videos that young fellas put together on YouTube of the sporting coach, Jaissle etc. They’ve managed at a level that’s light years from the PL. Turn your nose up at Dyche all you want. Guarantee you we’d have a very happy dressing room with no cliques or factions. He’s a bloody good PL manager. Can’t piss on that fact. It could be a happy dressing room, but not until the players who signed on for something very different have left and been replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Indigo Posted October 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2022 "Statement" signings just feels very 10 years ago or something. Or 12 months ago in our case. I'd rather there just being proper due diligence on getting the best coach in rather than flexing muscles to convince people we're "serious". We're regularly getting embarrassed by teams that have just made smart appointments on a footballing level, I'd like us to follow suit if possible. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jas10 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 Can we not appoint a manager that adores McGinn this time??? Guess that further rules out Rodgers for me (though I’d settle for him if we’re really struggling to attract better options, at least he can coach and has won things)… I don’t want a British manager…largely overrated and out of their depth… We need style… and the ability to PASS THE BALL.

I don't want to go in to a monolgue....That was great , as was the Cup Final.....but how did it end? He is no longer, with us, for a reason, and he failed to win games above 40%, so his time like many other managers was inconsistent.......we all have a view, I am just offering an alternative one. Some would say, with the personnel of Tammy, Terry, and Jack, a monkey, would have done that, They were better players than we have now, and still, just got over the line, with a freak show, from a substitute Goalkeeper. Look, I am not rubbishing Dean, He was a good guy, and did us proud, but like SG I think he was let down.....did Dean do better, than SG of course he did.....but still let down, IMO. If some of these players, continue, to dish up turgid, displays for the new guy, I would have them gone, in a jiffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we’re in a less fortunate place with an increased wage bill and it’s possible we can’t spend as much going forward. We've improved our squad although stood still in terms of progress - I'd say the opportunity here is better than 12 months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
