The Managerial Merry Go Round™

Steve Watson left York

From the bits I heard Gerrard absolutely nailed his press conference TBF. Spoke brilliantly.

He wears a jacket well also.

This one is better. He even tells it to get up.

Definitely a weird club

Love these type of left field appointments

Tried to get him in 2019 too:

Barnsley desperate to be hipster as. The absolute polar opposite of the town of Barnsley.

How do people rate Smith vs Howe?

 

Villa were saved by the most extraordinary technology failure we've seen in the PL in some time. Had goal line technology worked, Villa would've went down and Bournemouth stayed up.

 

I think considering the investment of both teams, neither team should have been in that situation but moreso Bournemouth shouldn't have been in that situation. Also Bournemouth consistently looked vulnerable at the back in the 5 years they were in the PL.

 

I don't watch enough of Villa to know how a Dean Smith side plays. They were pretty much as much a 1-man team as you'll see in the PL when things were going well iirc.

I think it's far too simplistic to say the technology failure meant Villa stayed up and Bournemouth went down

It's not football related. Some dodgy betting shit he didn't clamp down on.

Dean Smith did a great job with Villa, but I feel, he’s that type of manager where he’s ideal for that one club and will eventually become a PFM type going from job to job. Howe seems far more advanced in terms of his coaching, teachings and philosophy and more organic if that makes sense. 

[The Prophet]

To date, Smith has improved every team he's managed to be fair.

Clicked on page 4 of this thread by accident and got engrossed reading of the weird old times of Tim Sherwood at Spurs and Vincent Tan's mad Cardiff ownership

[Ameritoon]

Fun fact: Gio Reyna was named after him

[joeyt]

Had no idea that Rangers  had such few managers in their history

Watford go through that many before the first international break of the season

Not even managed a game yet at Villa and journalists are desperate to get him back to Anfield

Ridiculous question 

 

I hate villa but that's totally disrespectful to a big club..they won't be happy until he gives a time and date 

[Deuce]

Villa will never be good enough. No matter what he accomplishes there, it’ll always come back to “…but what about Liverpool…” Media is completely obsessed with it and it’s kinda pathetic. It’s also unfair to Villa fans and to Gerrard himself, who as far as I can tell hasn’t put a wrong foot forward throughout this process.

[joeyt]

Yeah just watched clips of his press conference and most of it is either "you've left a huge club in Rangers" or "I bet you can't wait to be back at Anfield"

 

So pleased we didn't get him

[Deuce]

Was there this much clamoring for Lampard to get the Chelsea job before he did? Or did he move so quickly into the role that it caught everyone by surprise? Can’t recall.

 

Ain’t nobody out here foaming at the mouth for Vieira to get the Arsenal job.
