The simple fact is this. Despite being chased by AC Milan and being a dream maker who turned a near bankrupt league one football club into a champions league ready Premier league power all through sheer ambition and business brilliance 11 years after leaving he's never worked in football again. Why is that? You'd think club all over the world would be knocking his door down.

what a joker, praising the team for doing okay when the game was already lost

i think you'll find most of Aston Villas fan base is in our catchment area.

I think you’ll find some people will care. Some people have been incandescent with rage over politicians private lives so itll be very interesting if they apply similar standards should any news like the above break. 👀👀👀👀👀

I guess they can’t do it on a Wednesday night in Stoke

😂

Perhaps that explains the issues, given the intensity of the premier league he's knackered by the 20th minute due to the lack of protein so cant coach the team properly. Would explain our good starts with subsequent 3 goal collapses against Man United, Bournemouth and Brentford recently plus the late goal v Ipswich.

Depends what oil they're cooked in.

top flight experience, winner, can organise a defence, attacks with purpose. Get it in the mixer!!

Remember when Les Reed thought we were going to get Thomas Tuchel

Nearly £50m spent on those 4 and probably £150k+ a week in wages and not one decent one between them. Add in Onachau and you’ve got nearly £70m and c£200k a week. we spend money we just do it very badly on quantity not quality. Utter shambles really. We’ve done the same in the past with centre backs and goalkeepers. We never learn

yep that's the one, first visit to their new ground. Really good day on the beers with the lads but we were absolutely dreadful, defending was shambolic. Forgot about that with Yoshida but that is true, that did actually happen 🤣

Who else is buzzing for this one? Great game of premier league soccerball against the Gunners of London. What an opportunity to play this great side in the amazing Ashburton stadium one of the Europes finest stadiums, where i understand the refreshments are champions league level. last time we played there after re-promotion we got served up 6-1, pretty sure it was 5-1 at half time. I spent the second half down stairs in the bar with the DEF, part of me sadistically not wanting to leave early in case we saw a record defeat. Maybe we will see a premier league record set on saturday, which would be an honour to hold another record in the worlds finest soccerball league.

i havent voted yet, nor made up my mind In his favour he has good hair and beard, he dresses well he the most handsome manager we've had since Poch Going against him are results, style of play, performance of the team and the inevitability of relegation if he stays

He'll grow out of it. Mine went through a similar stage about the same age. We live in a Leeds area and have a local league 2 side. When he got into football and all his mates support Leeds, Man City, Man United or Liverpool he started to ask if he could support another team. I went down the anyone but Liverpool line with him but within a few months he was a full on saints fan again. He's 11 now, knows what we are but doesn't care. One of the best times was when he turned up to his first training session with a new team he joined in about March time in full saints kit. All the other kids had Real Madrid, PSG, Leeds, Liverpool or Man U shirts on and a few he didn't know immediately took the piss. He spent the next hour running rings round them, it was a joy to watch and shut them all up.

We are still in the famous 10 game adapting to the premier league phase so with 4 games to go we are one point ahead of schedule.

This is what we do as a club though isn't it. We sign young players or cheap players and hope they'll swim rather than sink, we get lucky a few times like with Livramento and Lavia but in the main they struggle and it's been rinse and repeat for years. We bring in managers thinking they're going to be the new Pochetino because we did it once before. Martin is just the latest in a long line of appointments of this ilk, the current squad the same. We never learn do we. We sign 2-3 players for the same price as one decent one in positions all over the pitch. Then we are left with a big, shit squad that aren't good enough to play and no one wants to sign. Different owners, different managers, different players same outcomes. What do they say the definition of madness is?

absolutely dreadful, getting absolutely dominated all over the pitch. We look like a disorganised pub team.

Fuck me this is embarassing.

why? It didnt work in the championship and so it was never going to work at premier league level

We've got a manager who has never won a premier league match, so if they've got that on their CV that's a start.

As dumb as me? You cant even tell the difference between a swimming pool and a beach.

we're only 9 defensive mistakes and 3 missed chances away from winning every game 1-0. #if #finemargins

You were trying to make that point by posting pictures of a swimming pool, a rock formation in the sea and two beaches?? Have you taken the CoT approach of posting clues as to what you're wanting to say?

Sorry but no way is that a beach. There are even small jacuzzi style pools in the background. Number 4 Riveria Resort is also blatantly a swimming pool too.
