midds Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Curbishley would crash and burn at Villa. Sven would struggle. They're in a bit of a hole atm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gggg Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Sven did pretty much the same as O'Neill in his last club job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Kevin Mac needs relieving asap, as many have said the bloke does not look very well. Even after the win over Everton he looked very grey and exhausted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chubby Jason Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Bad job for Sven to take if they've got no cash to spend and Villa fans would just turn on Curbishley straight away. I'm struggling to think who would be a good fit for them to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovejoy Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Really does look like us 2004 doesn't it? Unbelievably so. I thought that when it happened, it's even more so now. We waited for ages for a manger also. And ended up gutted (souness). They'll get the same with curbs IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Bringing back bad memories this. The stunned and aghast sense of disbelief at work when the Souness appointment was announced. *shudder* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovejoy Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I'll never forget that day. Was walking to the shop for a paper, mate rang me and broke the news. Was absoloutely gutted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummie Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Gerard Houllier. Meh. Infinitely better than Curbishley, and hopefully he'd be working with KM in some capacity. At least we'd have actual European scouts. The entire process has been tainted from the start by that cunt's decision to walk out, taking the five most senior football members of staff with him, four days before the start of the season. Regardless of what he did for us, it was always going to be nigh on impossible to salvage something in those circumstances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm struggling to think who would be a good fit for them to be honest. Villa fans don't want Curbishley now, let alone when he took over. Talk about regressing to 2006.

Guest Pedro_de_geordieo Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 MsiDouglas: MacDonald as head coach, Houllier as director of football at avfc? Houllier is excellent but has that set-up EVER worked? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I'd say it's one of the better options out there right now. Would expect him to at least keep you challenging for the Europa spots. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Old bug eyes would be a great manager for them, his team won the champions league after all. Curbs would be a meh move; I'd rather have hughton 10 times over Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Houllier has been sniffing around for this kind of role for years, fancied it the last three times we needed a manager. You would be better off with Houllier as head coach, his connections and youth grooming skills cant be denied though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
