Aston Villa rumours 2

01 Jul 2020 09:43:33
Villa to do a massive review into recruitment at the end of the season the daily Telegraph reports. I seen it time and time again the owners appoint a sporting director to buy all the players and when he buys crap they sack the manager.

As a club its all there faults the owners chose not to let the manager buy the players so that's there fault. Jesus who brought this rubbish in the 1st place. I just don't see how this is dean smiths fault his done the best with the players they brought him now there saying his rubbish an should go its a joke.

Tim sherwood got to a cup final kept us up then they brought his players then surprise surprise sacked and the picture is painted that he was rubbish. Pick a manager and trust him to buy his own players! We all know smith wanted phillips, malpay, cahill, butland all was turned down they brought there own that's why they havnt sacked him because they no its not smiths fault!

When Jack goes let him buy his own players then judge him! Its like me going shopping buying you cheese you saying you don't like it whos fault is it you for not eating it or mine for buying it you! Smith in.

29 Jun 2020 16:12:58
Well I think we all know Smith will be gone at the end off season owners can't be happy I think we're down now nothings different is going to change even teams at the bottom are doing us a favour we're not good enough to gain an advantage, we have had 3 chances to boot Smith out after play off final, the Xmas period, and now, we're going to get battered by lpool and manu I fear a cricket score, also 1 last point this team will not bounce strait up when we go dwn not in a million years they have no fight in them in the prem well championship is hardest league in the world in my view and this team could go dwn again in championship its a shocking team and I worry for our club its a mess again apart from the owners nxt manager has a huge job especially when we go down.

29 Jun 2020 18:54:56
So you keep saying again and again and again and again!

29 Jun 2020 19:29:11
Il keep saying it aswell 🤪🤪🤪.

29 Jun 2020 20:30:07
Before you make assumptions maybe do some research on the owners, there history with other sports teams and the way they operate, might help you save face👍.

29 Jun 2020 20:44:57
Who is that directed at chris.

29 Jun 2020 21:05:08
Whoever said “Well I think we all know Smith will be gone at the end off season owners can't be happy”. 5 minute google tells you all you need to know about the owners and their patience with the Bucks.

29 Jun 2020 21:12:19
Chris the owners own bucks nba team who used to be crap I'm a huge nba fan and the bucks changed there roster with youth over 4 years and now look where there constantly in play off and 2 nba finals.

29 Jun 2020 21:13:17
No it's me dave 😂😂😂.

29 Jun 2020 21:20:32
The huge NBA fan who coaches professionally at Lincoln, wow, how do you have so much time on your hands?

The owners when they took over the Bucks stuck with the coach until late 2017 through some of the worst times in the clubs history. Research it’s key, especially when you are trying to fool people.

You should write a fantasy novel.

29 Jun 2020 22:15:05
Did I say they fired the coach no read what I put.

29 Jun 2020 22:17:05
Said they changed there roster with younger players I said nothing about there manager, so who is making things up 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.

29 Jun 2020 22:18:23
Waste of time talking to you when you can't even read, and like to think your a know it all.

29 Jun 2020 23:16:05
I will break this down once for you, as you are struggling. I told you to do research before making statements in order to save face, this was genuine advice After you made assumptions Smith will be sacked at the end of the season, despite the fact in other sporting ventures the owners have shown loyalty and given time to a system they have invested in. That is the link to Edens keeping Jason Kidd, through some serious tough times.

It really isn’t hard to understand. Especially for an EFL football coach who is a massive NBA fan. Your excessive use of emojis makes it look like you are trying to convince yourself of something you don’t believe in btw.

28 Jun 2020 17:30:02
Depending on what division we're in who would pick to be manager 3 picks prem and 3 championship
I'd pick dyche, wilder, Potter
Championship sherwood would be the right choice for a rebuild and isn't scared to blood youth, Daniel farke spent no money in prem but his Norwich team has good players and they won the championship, olaf mellberg doing a good job in sweeden.

28 Jun 2020 17:56:38
Managerial merry go round time eh Walkies.! Personally I would stick with Deano as I think you need to support your people through the bad times as well as the good, but if he does go then for the premiership I would go with Dyche Gerrard or Bilic . In the Championship Neil, Houghton, Farke.

I have steered clear of big names like Pochettino or Benitez because I don’t think they are realistic targets I know the view re Gerrard is he is being groomed for Liverpool and I think that is right but a couple of years premier experience might be good for both parties.

28 Jun 2020 20:04:18
John, I have just spoke to my son-in-law, he is very well versed on Liverpool, and has said Klopp is after the German job.
Apparently he is at Liverpool for another 3 years, unless he signs again obviously, so if that is the case Gerrard is probably a good shout.
Dyche, Farke, Bilic, Houghton, any of those are steady, and who knows what they are capable of with good funding.
Shame, because I was a supporter of Deano, I would love to know how much say he actually had in recruiting, I am not convinced he had the freedom we are led to believe.

28 Jun 2020 22:15:24
It was said from day 1 that he was there to coach.
He would have been asked what positions he feels need strengthening and the qualities he is looking for in that position.
The fact still remains that in the early interviews he clearly stated he would not be heavily involved in transfers and that was the system he was used to.

28 Jun 2020 23:58:14
Even if Deano only identified the qualities he was looking for in players then something has still gone drastically wrong somewhere for example we know he was interested in Maupay and Benrahma to name but 2 but we ended up with Wesley Nakamba Luiz and Trezuget. I would argue that Maupay and Wesley do not possess the same qualities neither do Benrahma and any of the midfielders named above so what happened between his identifying players and those we signed I would love to knoe.

29 Jun 2020 06:35:38
If Smith does go and we're relegated we stand little chance of a "big" name. My personal preference would be Mellberg/ Laursen partnership with Petrov on the coaching staff maybe even offer Barry a coaching role as he's on the released list and may want to get into that side of the game. 4 ex Villa captain's, ex internationals, leaders and winners. Time for a different way of thinking.

29 Jun 2020 17:39:59
Hi Moose66 i think we could attract a big name manager to the club, our owners are very wealthy, want to take the club to the top . OK made a mistake. i don't think that will happen again,

29 Jun 2020 18:03:52
We have to follow the example of Wolves. They took over the club, removed Kenny Jackett as he wasn't the right man to take them to the next level. They put in Walter Zenga who is a playing legend but that didn't work. Lambert came in til the end if the season to steady the ship and then Nuno was appointed and cleared out the old backroom staff and brought his tried and tested team. That's what Villa need to do now. Complete change of managerial and coaching staff.

{Ed002's Note - Sorry but Walter Zenga isn't available.}

29 Jun 2020 18:28:50
Isn't Zenga the scary one from Terrahawks who looked like shirley from Eastenders? 😂😂.

29 Jun 2020 18:39:02
Nobody who's available really grabs my attention JK, RHLT. Pochetino, could we tempt him in the championship? I'm being realistic and doubt it despite our prestige as a club. That's why I've gone for the above choices. Mellberg and Laursen are cutting their managerial teeth admittedly, but similar to Solskjaer at Man Utd (yes I know more stable club) who surrounded himself with people who played for and know the club inside out. Like I say going for "names" hasn't worked out too well not since MON early days so why not try something leftfield for a change? It would certainly give the fans a massive lift having 3-4 legends looking after things and maybe they would be given the time and patience to start building a legacy which would include a more productive youth system.

29 Jun 2020 20:08:29
I like that throw in petrov aswell as coach could work aswell.

30 Jun 2020 10:55:24
Moose I like your plan, I think Hoddle should be added to that team, all who played for him say he was great coach, i know he a bit on the older side and had challenge but those you mention could learn from him.

27 Jun 2020 20:08:38
Gutted rumour is dean smith will be sacked.

05 Jul 2020 16:35:39
You're gutted? Smith will probably just continue as Villa-manager after this season anyways.

27 Jun 2020 19:14:44
Rumour has it Dean Smith is nearing the sack.

27 Jun 2020 20:03:10
I've seen it aswell daz.

27 Jun 2020 20:08:44
Pls let it not be Terry.

27 Jun 2020 20:30:09
Venables, Scott or Wogan? 😁.

27 Jun 2020 12:25:07
Anybody else having trouble with this code off the Villa, mine not being recognised.

26 Jun 2020 23:22:52
I am watching Villa and all the players are trying there just not good enough. let's not forget even our owners said we was 2 years ahead of what was planned. They brought the club then 6 months later there in the prem they spent what they was aloud we didn't get great players because we had 150 million to buys a whole squad.

Now we have a base we have something to work with now we can go buy better quality. I say stick with Dean Smith Rome wasnt built in a day. If they weren't trying i would say yeah sack him but they are so let's give him another season! 1 thing i would do is sack Terry can't see what he does you have a manager an a number 2 you do not need 2 assistents.

27 Jun 2020 11:22:45
You been on the wacky backy walkies hahaha?
Now you want to keep Deano, because the players are trying.
I love your empirical hypothesis, very interesting walkies.

26 Jun 2020 17:50:55
Just seen the 15 players we've released, what's the point of the academy if all its there for is to bring through players we then disregard who'll get snapped up, just goes to show deano and the management team have no faith in our own 'star finding' academy, the mind boggles.

26 Jun 2020 18:33:15
And if they did play them and they were crap you’d moan saying they weren’t good enough. Outside of Albrighton there hasn’t been a player from our youth team who has left and performed at the level we would need them to, stop moaning for moaning sake, if they aren’t good enough they aren’t good enough.

26 Jun 2020 18:41:38
We have been saying it for weeks 82.
Its the mindset of the club, years and years this sort of thing has been going on, back since the days of Doug Ellis.
It has to change.

26 Jun 2020 19:36:35
Not many managers are brave enough to play youngsters go threw all teams in prem and how many blood youngsters Chelsea, lpool and Norwich and man utd, personally I'd play them dave and let them grow of course the would make mistakes but it's part of learning for them.

26 Jun 2020 19:43:59
This "cull" is for players who should be breaking down the door of the 1st team not knobbing about getting a game here and there in the lower leagues. This will hopefully be a watershed moment for our next batch of youth and not hindered by 20 odd year olds in their way who are probably too good for the u23s but not good enough for the 1st team.
A plan is in place, just needs time to take root.

27 Jun 2020 08:32:39
I hope you are right Moose we are more likely to hold on to our own talented youngsters as well as attracting others if they think they have a chance of transitioning to the first team rather than stagnate in the reserves.

25 Jun 2020 22:35:40
Sean dyche apparently has fallen out with burnley owner and is looking to leave burnley at the end of the season. Villa went for him before smith rumour has it.

25 Jun 2020 02:05:28
What do el ghazi and trez offer?
Very little, poor crossing, average pace, lack of effort tracking back. We would be a much more solid unit if they didn't play.

25 Jun 2020 18:42:55
Mate the both useless waste of money we should of brought in our youth and blood them properly give them 30. Games let feel the highs and lows it would make them better.
