markavfc40 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Warnock just got the boot from QPR, whats the odds on mcleish getting the boot and us getting warnock??? About 500-1 I'd imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 hes the main reason weve got nothing to show other than darren bent from lerners investments. and the 64mill we got back on Milner, Downing and Ash.Dunno about Downing. Yes he signed him but Downing played his best football under KMac/Houllier/GMac. Obviously there's no telling how he would've played under MON but I don't think Downing would've been worth £10m in the summer of 2010 let alone £18m (or however much Liverpool paid us). We made some good profits on a couple of his signings but samclarke is right on this - MON spent a lot of money yet we really don't have that much to show for it.

hercs23 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 this really does sum it up what mark lawrenson has said this week: 'I just get the sense that Villa boss Alex McLeish is going to have to change the mentality in his squad a little bit, because I am not sure he has got enough winners. There are too many players who are happy to coast along and the only way he is going to be able to change that is by getting rid of them and bringing in some new faces.'

PIW Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 To be fair that is just bland meaningless bollocks. Not enough winners? What exactly does that mean? Too many players happy to coast along - who? We've got the players not playing in a choesive unit. Nobodies 'coasting' that's Chelsea. Getting rid and bringing new players in - welcome to roughly 17 out of 20 prem teams Lawrenson your drivel spouting shitehawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what sums it up is we have possibly the worst manager in Aston Villa history and if he remains at the club he will take us down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are too many players who are happy to coast along midfield and defence particular - no one takes responsibility imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KHV Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I think what sums it up is we have possibly the worst manager in Aston Villa history and if he remains at the club he will take us down I still think both Venglos and Billy McNeill are far worse than McLeish.

Mantis Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 There's no doubt that McLeish is shaping up to be one of the worst Villa managers ever. However, what annoys me is that this was all avoidable. He wasn't some unknown - everyone knew what he was about before he got the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 What annoys me more is that people think it is because he is ex sha, cannot , in the main, see how crap he actually is and we are not likely to be rid of him either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If McLeish was a half decent manager I'd be glad that we poached him from them. Unfortunately he's terrible and it's clear that SHA fans were glad to be rid of him.

I'm too young for McNeill but I can say that McLeish still has some way to go before he stoops to the doctor's level. I mean, Venglos was sodding bananas! Not as bananas as mcleish. this man is delusion. he doesn't think he is.negative, Heskey reminds him of franz bekenbauer he thinks we play like Holland and he thinks Hutton is a quality full back. Dr Jo was nowhere near as bonkers as mcleish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
