I was canny sick when Emery was the frontrunner like, I wanted  that overtly offensive (Argentinian?) fella who's name I've completely forgot, and who probably would have been terrible.

 

 

Gallardo?

Its about the right size club for Emery. The elite level is beyond him. An improvement on what Villa had, relegation is off the table for sure now, depends what success is I suppose, but cant see them breaking into the top6/7 so not sure it will be deemed a success down the road.

Nobody wants to go to Newcastle, Nobody turns down Villa, bigger club, Emery better than Howe. Emery turned down Newcastle.

The fella wouldn’t even be able to point Birmingham out on a map

Villa copying Newcastle again it seems 

 

Some really strange stuff going on between the two clubs. There's a rivalry growing :lol:

 

Would love it if Emery bombs. Found his carrying on after our approach extremely irritating.

Villa have obviously got a lot of history, but I don't know, always found them a bit of a boring club with mostly pretty dispassionate fans - like Fulham but not as bad as them. They'd be low down on clubs I'd want to play for in my imaginary world as a player - like I'd much rather be at say, Leeds, Everton or West Ham.

 

Anyway, Emery is probably a good appointment- can see them pushing for that 'best of the rest' area. Hopefully they've too much to catch up this season, and by the time they're better, we'll hopefully be better again.

Great appointment.

 

Was starting to get a bit concerned about ambition given how long they stuck with Gerrard, but to ship the cunt out on the Thursday immediately after the match ended was an impressive start, and to get a top level replacement in by the Monday is going some.

 

Only one match but saw in the performance yesterday that Gerrard - despite what his media fan club say - has been utterly fucking throttling this squad for a long time.

 

Proper formation, players knowing what they need to do, non-performers dropped, all these things that Gerrard just didn't understand, or want to, because he just wanted it all to be about him.

 

I just don't get some people. The world and his wife could see we needed to be playing 4231 and not with Luiz as the sole DM so he can get forward, and what happens? Has his best game for us in ages. Not only that, the radical step of playing Leon Bailey on the left rather than the right also changes things hugely.

 

We're not going to become world beaters overnight but getting rid of that wanker feels like a definite step in the right direction.
