I think even if he doesn't deliver, he'll get plenty of time IF it's obvious that he's building something. Fans will justify bad results if we can see that the club is going somewhere. If Emery's style is obvious even though it hasn't quite clicked yet, he'll get plenty of time. If we're not getting results AND we perform like we did with Gerrard then he'll get rightly hounded out. I agree with all of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakemineVanilla Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 So what can we expect the new manager to achieve? The culture at Villa has the habit of defeating just about every manager who has taken the job, over decades, so it is a big ask. I just hope Villa can avoid relegation but based on Saturday's performance I don't put much confidence in that hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like a good cup run as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without taking words out of Purslow's mouth, the manager (and any manager we hire) needs to achieve continuous improvement. The moment a manager can't keep improving the club, they should go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobsons Choice Posted October 31, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted October 31, 2022 In the short term expectation should be for stability. Any more than that is hyperbole, and will require much more coaching and time imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ChicagoVillan1983 Posted October 31, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 31, 2022 The negativity in here already makes me laugh. I give us a couple of weeks before I hear “Unami out”. Just give the dude a chance. The shit show of the weekend is nothing to do with him. Now he’s got to work with the same pool of players, but players that have been mismanaged for a very long period of time. He needs until the end of Jan to steady the ship, and I’ll be giving him a 100% free pass until That point. Best manager we could’ve gotten by a long shot. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Made In Aston Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 If we mirror what Howe did at Newcastle last season then that would be ideal. If not, my minimum expectation this season is to keep away from a relegation battle then push for Europe next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, “the end of Jan” is not giving him a chance to stead the ship and isn’t consistent with the vibe of your post. 3 months to go essentially completely rebuild and rejuvenate one of the worst teams in the league, and that’s without considering the end of Jan doesn’t give him a chance to work with his own signings and also doesn’t take into account a winter World Cup. He needs a year minimum. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeadlyDirk Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 To be honest the rest of this season will be difficult to judge as we don't know the severity of the damage Gerrard's reign has done, and how long it would take a master surgeon to repair. I'm happy with stability coming back and getting to the end of the season in one piece. We've got a World Class manager and coaching team in now so it's time to let them do their thing and set about tearing up the nonsense that went on before and transfer the mentality, ethos and culture of the squad. It's not an overnight thing. I expect to see though, some unexpected wins, some soul crushing defeats but after a while we'll get consistency back and then push on from their. Rome wasn't built in a day! That said I actually think the fanbase as a whole will be patient as hell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
