The scintillating Brentford display might have created a false narrative or sense of security. He will have seen all of our weaknesses in advance. I suppose it makes any changes he makes next week easier for him. He will need to work with the group in the short term to rebuild their confidence and get a system that will move us forward. I am confident he will or else we have bigger problems than we know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im pretty sure the owners are fed up of seeing crap like this. They deserve better than the garbage served up tonight. Emery needs to make it clear that they are playing for their futures from now until jan to summer. Im backing emery over the players. Emerys a proven winner i am behind him a 100% the players not so much after another cowardly away performance 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true and having evaluated our squad he will need full backing - financial and otherwise - to make the multiple changes necessary. Make no mistake many of our squad are not at top 6/8 standard let alone top 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The short term goal is top 10 I think and more consistent performances. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I generally think we would have gine down had gerarrd stayed. With this wimpy squad and a hopeless maanger what a recipe for disaster.

So that means Danjuma, Pino and Torres will be joining us, lol. Heck, let’s bring in Capou while we’re at it. He’s 31 and will be expensive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Striker and full back at a minimum I’d say we need to upgrade cash, definitely a striker and a winger or two, kamara will be back from injury so I don’t think we’ll need a midfielder 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One bloke on here the other day “ We might be able to make a push for Europe under Emery “ I mean……He’s not a magician and the reality is that we’ve overpaid on some players like Buendia. Shouldn’t of signed Coutinho. He’s a very good coach. This will be a slow burner though and some Villa fans need to engage with reality now and then. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only worry is Buendia for one, is making the same mistakes he did when he came in the door as he is now. That’s Smith and Gerrard. ( Danks 2 games ) Piss weak on the ball, under hits easy passes, just baffling decision making at times. Emery won’t suffer fools. He’ll learn or he won’t play.

maltesemike Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Back down to reality after the boost from the Brentford result and the euphoria from Emery’s appointment. He clearly has his work cut out but his reputation as a proper coach will improve these players. They need it as it’s painfully obvious that SG has been stealing a living for the last year and the team has suffered for it. That man is a fraud!!!! We are so mentally weak but this is something UE is also renowned to improve too, so we should feel confident that he will turn things around. I really hope so!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerrard identified the mentality problem, it hardly took a genius, but he had no idea how to fix it. Apart from further undermining players confidence. Emery will hopefully be the proverbial breath of fresh air at BMH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I can just picture the scene Tuesday morning at BMH......with all the players waiting for Unai when a voice, screams "little pigs, little pigs.....Here's Johnny"......and an axe comes through the door. I hope they **** themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
